4.5 Modulation
Modulation consists of using a different phrase in the source and target languages to convey the same idea. Through modulation, the translator generates a change in viewpoint of the message without altering meaning and without creating a sense of awkwardness for the reader of the target text:
English-French: It’s easy to understand/ C’est pas difficile à comprendre.
English-Spanish: It’s easy to understand/ No es difícil de comprender.
You could translate this literally: Es fácil de entender (It’s easy to understand), but depending on the context (perhaps somebody is talking to a child and does not want to sound harsh) you might prefer to change the message slightly (It is not difficult to understand).
English-German: It’s easy to understand/ Es ist leicht zu verstehen.
