Cultural impact on Hindi translation

The culture refers to the religions, beliefs, customs, traditions, languages, ceremonies, arts, values and the way of life of a country and its people. India is a diverse country in terms of culture. India's languages, religions, dance, music, architecture, food and customs vary from place to place within the country. But there is always a unity in the diverse cultures of the country. Language is a very important part of culture. In India people speak numerous languages and dialects but the place which Hindi has cannot be replaced by any other language. Even the one, who cannot speak Hindi fluently, understands it. Hindi unites the whole country. Even in foreign countries people, if people find someone from Indian origin, try to speak in Hindi. Hindi is the predecessor of the oldest language called Sanskrit.


It is a fact that culture influences the Hindi translation.

Different cultures have their own characteristics and there can be variances among the different cultures. So, Hindi translation for people from different culture has to be made according to them. Language is not an object, it is a phenomenon which gets infected by the culture. Various dialects of Hindi are the result of culture on Hindi language. If Hindi translation done for different cultures, it should have the essence of the culture in it. So that audience can connect themselves to the Hindi translation. The Ramayana, an epic is translated by the different languages of India. It is written in a dialect of Hindi, it came up with so many variances, due to the cultural differences of the languages.

    Truely, culture is closely related to translation. Translation may involve many idioms, slangs of the target language, or may be relevant to the lifestyle or social or even political notions of the target audience. As a good translator, one has to be very familiar with the target culture. The differences among various cultures will be reflected in their respective languages, which should be born in mind by the translators. Therefore, only with an excellent command of source and target language as well as profound knowledge of different cultures can a translator offer high quality translation services.
