A noção de equivalência para os estudos da tradução, lexicografia e sociolinguística variacionista

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to study the meanings that the term ‘equivalence’ acquires in the fields of knowledge: Translation Studies, Lexicography and Variationist Sociolinguistics. The notion of equivalence is considered of fundamental importance for the disciplines in question, because, in the different paradigmatic perspectives, the term has acquired deep conceptual variations, which will be analyzed along the text. With the purpose of reflecting upon the changes and the values attributed to these areas of knowledge, within different aspects, we will address the notions of equivalence for each area of study contratively and then analyze the contributions of Sociolinguistics to Translation Studies and Lexicography regarding the expansion of meanings for these concepts.
