Pain and its Polish Equivalents in a Parallel Corpus: The Relationships between Elements of the Hierarchical Structures in the Two Languages

Abstract

The aim of this article is to describe the hierarchical semantic relationships between words constructed with the word pain, belonging to the lexico-conceptual field of produits de boulangerie-pâtisserie in French, and their Polish equivalents. The hyponymy/hyperonymy relationships existing within the field analysed in French and its Polish equivalent wypieki are not identical. These differences have an impact on the choice of equivalents of certain terms in translation. The basic equivalent of the word pain is chleb, but its hyperonym pieczywo (higher level) is also used, as well as bułka (a co-hyponym of chleb) and bagietka (a hyponym of bułka, subordinate level).

Keywords:
