La deixis personal en la interpretación simultánea del español al italiano

“Personal deixis in Spanish-Italian simultaneous interpretation” Personal deixis encodes the role of the participants in a communicative event and it is relevant to the rhetorical construction of discourse. In simultaneous interpretation, personal deixis may undergo significant changes: some references are omitted, while others are added or modified. The study examines how first person singular and plural deixis is interpreted from Spanish into Italian. The analysis is based on a corpus of spoken texts which were pronounced by Latin American speakers during a journalism festival organized by the magazine Internazionale. All texts were simultaneously interpreted from Spanish into Italian by freelance professional interpreters. The aim of this study is to identify trends in the simultaneous interpretation of personal deixis from Spanish into Italian
