Abstract
This chapter explains the positive and negative aspects of dealing with intralingual translation. Roman Jakobson’s (On Translation. Harvard University Press, Cambridge, MA, p. 233, 1959) view on textual transposition from one form into another within the same language is employed in order to show the way direct (rephrasing or reformulating and paraphrasing) and indirect (adaptation and free translation) intralingual translation function. The chapter is mainly meant for students who do not yet know how to tackle the usage of linguistic formulae and their interchange according to various communicative situations which require particular registers of language. It also addresses translators that have only just begun work in the field and are unaware of language subtleties.
