Traduction du langage inclusif et échanges entre le français et l’italien
Abstract
This article is a comparative study of the forms of inclusive language developed in French and Italian, and it will try to open the way to a reflection on the translation of inclusive writing, which I consider necessary in order to offer tools for an increasingly inclusive language in French and in Italian. The rule of traditional grammar that sees the masculine “prevail” over the feminine is common to both languages, and these two linguistic environments also share a reflection on the strategies to adopt in order to move beyond this rule. However, French and Italian do not admit – or rather, they do not suggest – the same solutions. The fact that inclusive writing has taken forms in these two languages that are not only different, but sometimes even opposed, which is due to different sensitivities regarding the same issues and to linguistic realities that favor one solution over the other, requires us to ask ourselves several questions: we must at first understand the differences between the strategies of inclusion used in both languages, understand the reasons behind them, and finally discuss the difficulties that these differences present in translation from a theoretical point of view, in order to propose directions to follow or to avoid in the practice of translation.
