Abstract

Translingual literature is heterogenic; its classification based on structure, form and genre implies distinguishing novels, novelettes, short stories, plays, poems, etc. As well as differentiating among the following genres and subgenres: young adult/youth literature, fantasy novels and stories, science fiction, criminal literature, etc. Foreign linguistic and cultural substrate is verbalized in translingual young adult novels: culture-loaded loanwords, proper names (including precedent names derived from the non-native languages of target readers). Frequently used domestication strategies aimed at decoding foreign linguistic and cultural substrate rank as follows (in descending order): explanatory context, the author’s detailed commentary, one-word translation equivalent, extratextual glossary.
