ANÁLISE DA TRADUÇÃO DE ONOMOMATOPEIAS JAPONESAS PARA O PORTUGUÊS DO BRASIL DO MANGÁ ONE PIECE

Abstract

Japanese onomatopoeias are classified as Giongo, Giseigo and Gitaigo, and each of them has its own description to classify and refer to sounds. This monography aims to analyze, describe, list and make a glossary of the translations of Japanese ono- matopoeias to Brazilian Portuguese, from the observation that there is a shortage in Japanese language translation studies in Brazil. The analysis will be based on a chapter of the manga One Piece, Chapter 764, from the volume 77, released in Bra- zil by Panini Publishing. This kind of manga is considered Shounen, which targets male public, but it is consumed by the general public, as well. It was discovered that the representation of the sounds most present in the chapter studied were punches, explosions and screams. Besides the analysis of the onomatopoeia classifications, the presence of transliteration and onomatopoeia translation inside and outside the speech bubbles was also observed.
