What’s New, Scooby Doo? Observations on the Dynamics of the Romanian Vocabulary and Grammatical Structure in the Subtitling of Cartoons
Abstract: An examination of the vocabulary and the current Romanian grammatical structure in the subtitling of recent cartoons identifies specific issues regarding grammatical, semantic, lexical creations, especially some extremely productive prefixes which circulate from one register of the language to another, according to the principle of communicating vessels. By analyzing the language on social networks and television channels, one can see how the same word, prefix or structure migrates from its specific area in that of everyday speech. One could transfer Pascal’s principle from physics into language sciences and re-define it as the pressure of language use transmitted from one area of the language to another, manifested in the whole mass of speakers and in all directions. A wrong word or an aberrant grammatical form approaches the verge of imposing itself when the pressure of language use pushes it into areas other than those of its specific use.
Keywords: contemporary Romanian language, dynamics of vocabulary and of grammatical structure, cartoons subtitling, translation and linguistic creativity.
