SUMMARY:

This dissertation investigates the process of collaborative translation in an educational context, focusing on the interactions established among students during Latin-to-Portuguese translation tasks. Grounded in Translation Studies and Language Studies, the research conceives translation as a processual, situated, interpretive, and intersubjective activity, in which the construction of meaning stems from the interplay among text, context, mobilized knowledge, and interaction between participants. The corpus was gathered within Latin teaching courses in the Letters Program at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN), based on paired translation activities using excerpts from Ovid's Metamorphoses. Audio-visual recordings of the sessions and students' written productions were analyzed, obtained using the audio-visual capture tool of the Ramos System (SR). The analysis focuses on the linguistic, discursive, and metalinguistic movements involved in shaping translation events. The results show that the translational practice is organized through recursive movements of interpretation, hypothesis formulation, context checking, negotiation, and reformulation. The identified translation challenges span different levels of linguistic and discursive functioning, demonstrating that meaning construction does not arise from isolated formal identification, but from the integration of linguistic knowledge, cultural repertoire, narrative context, and target language formulation possibilities. Furthermore, the data reveal the multimodal nature of the activity, in which speech, writing, gestures, erasures, and other semiotic resources contribute to constructing the translated text. Based on these findings, the study understands the translation event as a situated interactional configuration in which ways of saying in the target language are constructed, evaluated, negotiated, and reformulated. The contribution of this research to Translation Studies lies in shifting the focus from product to process, making empirically observable those operations that tend to remain hidden when analysis is restricted solely to the translated text, while highlighting collaborative translation as a discursive, intersubjective, and multimodal practice of meaning construction and negotiation.
