Translation of Amplifying Comparative Constructions in Modern Fiction

Summary/Abstract: Amplifying comparative constructions are widely used in literary works of many authors, thus constituting an exceptional flavour of a literary work. The article aims to highlight procedures, techniques, methods, strategies and tactics that prove useful to faithfully reproduce English amplifying comparative constructions in Ukrainian translations. We have conducted an experiment aimed at identifying individual respondents' creative approaches to the reproduction of these units into the Ukrainian language, taking into account their translation experience, creative approach, the style of the author, the level of knowledge of the source language and the target language, their background knowledge.
