Rezumat:The topic of this paper lies at the crossroads of several disciplines within the realm of linguistics, such as sociolinguistics, discourse analysis, conversation analysis on the one hand, and translation studies on the other. One of the common points in the former group of disciplines is their concern with the social context on consideration that language and society are interrelated. The paper revolves around this natural partnership between language and society from a translational perspective. It aims at attaching social implications to the language of the interactants in the dialogue and looks into the way language and its social role are jointly dealt with in translation. The way the central characters of the contemporary American short-story Black Angels by J.B. Friedman exchange turns is set under the observant lens to account for the use they make of language so as to acquire social distinctiveness in front of the readership. In the source language, the heroes are labeled by their speech to such an extent that an attentive reader can tell one from the other in the absence of the auctorial intervention. This being given, some relevant examples from the translations from English into Romanian comprised in a learner corpus are scrutinized with a view to assessing the translator trainees’ ability to transfer the two speakers’ register markers to the target language and to linguistically preserve their individuality granted by the different social classes they pertain to. The conclusions pinpoint the extent to which the characters’ social identity is preserved in the intercultural transfer by means of translation and the way the act of translation affects the perception of the said social identity by the target-language readers.
