Resumen: The Postcolonial text is a political and ideological text that is differentiable in translation. This is because of its location in the dialogic and discursive communicative exchange between former coloniser and former colonised cultures and societies. This communicative exchange takes place in the situation and condition of asymmetrical relations and relations of inequality and involves the contestation of histories, cultures, meanings, identities and representations. The functionality of the postcolonial text with its message is fixated on this dialogue and discourse; and each postcolonial text is a single statement directly and specifically responding to this dialogue and discourse in some way. This paper examines the African postcolonial text and its communicative location in the light of postcolonial theory and the possibility offered by the skopos functional theory in translation to set aside the purpose and function of the source text intended by the author. Using Chinua Achebe's texts, It would conclude that the mediatory role of the translator in the dialogic and discursive exchange between former coloniser and former colonised cultures and societies need not become interference in the application of the skopos theory.

Resumen: Este ensayo lidia con la traducción del texto de Bandia al portugués de Brasil. Enfatiza los elementos que el autor considera los más sensibles, o sea, los pidgins y los créoles, en sus variantes inglesas y francesas. Acerca el posicionamiento de Bandia a las consideraciones teóricas de Nord (2001), envolviendo conceptos como teorías subjetivas, de función y de lealtad. Realza la importancia de juntar el concepto de lealtad al de pidgin con la finalidad de aproximar el autor al lector como una indicación de una traducción eficaz. El alcance exitoso de la traducción depende del tratamiento que el traductor le dé al uso que los novelistas hacen de los pidgins y los créoles en sus textos narrativos.

Resumen: This paper reviews the criticism of J. P. Clark's Ijo-English translation The Ozidi Saga and observes that no adequate investigation has been made of this work from a linguistic angle. It notes that culture-bound concepts constitute a problematic area in Clark's translation as a result of the difference in the culture sub-systems between Ijo and English. Specifically, elements of Ijo culture, namely natural objects, marriage system and maternity, art and dance, kinship terms and the notion of God have been inconsistently and sometimes unfaithfully translated as a result of the adoption of free translation. This gives a confusing or inaccurate impression of certain Ijo cultural traits to the reader of the English texto The paper recommends that culture-bound concepts can hardly be represented adequately through free translation and proposes that such concepts should either be left untranslated as loan words into the target language or given literal or loan translations and then be paraphrased in glossaries or annotations.

Resumen: Nombreuses sont les langues africaines qui, à l'heure actuelle, connaissent deux dénominations, l'une donnée par le colonisateur européen, l'autre, plus récemment, par les langagiers. Tandis que la première paraît étrangère en raison du processus de transcription, la seconde se veut authentique et fait appel aux ressources de la langue elle-même. L'étude présente cet état de fait pour trois langues d'Afrique de l'Ouest et montre que ces dénominations ne tiennent pas compte du nom de la langue en usage dans la langue elle-même, qu'elles sont des abus de langage et qu'elles résultent, en fait, d'une imposition, à la langue, de la culture du colonisateur ou de celle des langagiers.
