Traduire des livres du Arménien vers le Arabe

Armenian forms its own branch of the Indo-European family, spoken by about five million native speakers in Armenia, Artsakh, and a worldwide diaspora shaped by the 1915 genocide. The leap from Armenian to Semitic is significant: cultural metaphors, kinship terminology, and grammatical categories rarely line up, so a faithful translation often becomes an act of cultural mediation as much as linguistic substitution.

Modern Standard Arabic is a critical translation target for reaching over four hundred million readers across the Arab League and a large global Muslim audience that uses Arabic for religious and formal contexts. When the source script is Armenian and the target script is Arabic, even punctuation conventions diverge — quotation marks, parenthetical asides, and emphasis often need substitution rather than direct translation.

Armenian literature begins with Mesrop's fifth-century Bible translation and extends through medieval epics like David of Sassoun to modern poets like Yeghishe Charents. Arabic serves as the formal written language across twenty-two Arab states and is widely used in Islamic scholarship, journalism, and pan-Arab broadcasting.
