Misunderstanding of some of the novel's terms due to translation: Narrative and point of view as two models A critical and analytical study

Abstract

The problem of translating some of the terms of the novel Narrative and the point of view are two examples. Analytical Criticism study. Literary and academic circles faced a great deal of Western terminology, especially in novel criticism, such as narration and point of view. They knew it as narration, storytelling, or Narratology, as well as the term point of view. I believe that the lack of understanding of the term as it was put by its Western critics is due to the translation that did not Translators and critics are able to adopt these terms correctly, as the term is not a concept that all people can know, but rather it is a system that is subject to special concepts, sciences, and theories that only specialists understand. In addition, the term needs a cognitive context to fit the general concept and find the linguistic and cognitive equivalent between the source language and the target language. Therefore, any term that was not born in an environment prepared to understand it and there is no thought that can interact with it will become only a word and not a thought that helps the recipient understand the meaning.
