Abstract

The article deals with the translation of idioms from English into Spanish, and more specifically translations made for subtitles. It contains many examples from Woody Allen's film Manhattan Murder Mistery (1993), subtitled into Spanish as Misterioso asesinato en Manhattan (1995). The article aims to define the operational norms which ruled the translation process.
