The following paper discusses the issue of translating diminutives, as, in many cases, it requires not only a careful analysis of all the meanings of diminutive forms, but also the translator’s inventiveness and sensitivity. Therefore, as far as translation of diminutives is concerned, the notions of untranslatability, compensation and explicitation, as well as domestication and foreignization should be introduced. The chapter also discusses the most common methods used to translate diminutives from English into Polish.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={On diminutives in translation into Polish}, URL={http://ochroma.man.poznan.pl/Content/108329/PDF-MASTER/Ling.%20Siles.%20vol%2037%2015-P.Bialy.pdf}, }
