INTERCULTURAL ASYMMETRY IN LITERARY TRANSLATION
The phenomena of intercultural asymmetry in the English version of “Navruz-name” by Omar Khayyam are analyzed. T e asymmetry of grammatical features in the original text and in the translation are determined. T e study of intercultural asymmetry in this paper is carried out from the perspective of intercultural and interlanguage features, conf rmed by a lot of scientif c examples and facts. It is established that the translation of culture-specific concepts, non-equivalent vocabulary, culturemes and other lexical units is carried out incorrectly. Special attention is also paid to the phenomena of interlanguage asymmetry in the lexical and grammatical aspects.T e author comes to the conclusion that in most cases the translation requires editing, there is an asymmetry of grammatical categories, syntactic constructions and phrases, nominal, verb and adjective phrases with English equivalents. Based on a comparative analysis of the Russian and English translations of “Navruz-name”, it can be argued that the English translation was made from the Russian version of the work.
