IN CLASS TASK (Controlled Essay)

Directions: On the blank before each number. Write AGREE, if you agree with the
statement and DISAGREE if otherwise. Defend your answer in five sentences.

AGREE 1. Transcreation demands a deep understanding of both grammar and culture.

Yes, I believe that transcreation requires a thorough understanding of both language and
culture in order to evoke and communicate the content's emotions in a way that is more
relevant to the target audience while keeping the content's original notion or idea.

AGREE 2. Transcreation in art is important.

Yes, it is critical; direct word-for-word translations can quickly spark a variety of

interpretations based on the languages and cultures involved. It is vital for firms with a
worldwide audience to ensure that their communications are translated correctly.

AGREE 3. A well-transcreated message will evoke exactly the same emotions and will
project the same implications in both the target language and the source language.

Yes, because transcreation elicits emotions through the translation and creation of ideas, or
transcreation in which the original concept of the source language is preserved despite the
new language being changed to be more relevant to the target audience.

AGREE 4. The goal of transcreation is multilingual content with the same emotional impact
as the source content.

Yes, because the purpose of transcreation is to translate a source text into a new language
without the audience noticing, while keeping the source work's original style, emotions, and
intent.
