Abstract

The paper concentrates mostly on ways of rendering Ukrainian proper names, nationally biased units of lexicon or realia and figurative phraseological expressions into English. The comparative analysis of four fiction texts by B. Hrinchenko and M. Kotsyubynsky and translation texts executed by Roma Franko has shown that most of Ukrainian national proper names have been transliterated. Due to the complex nature of the notion of realia, it is not always possible to detect all of them in the text. Besides that, a lot of them have been rendered by means of synthesis of several ways, for instance, transliteration + contextual translation, transliteration + comment, etc. No selected figurative phraseological expressions have been substituted by their corresponding equivalents in the target language. In general, despite loss of some connotative meanings, the translator seeks the balance between representing the translation text in comprehensible way on the one hand and preserving national peculiarities of its components on the other one.
