Variações terminológicas no campo tradução audiovisual. Análise dos termos "legendação", "legendagem" e "tradução de/para legendas"

This paper aims at both discussing and mapping terminology used in the Audiovisual Translation area with emphasis on subtitling. By focusing on three Portuguese technical terms ("legendagem", "legendação", "tradução de/para legendas"), data were collected from specialized texts published online. Data analysis shows that those terms are either used ambiguously or referring to different concepts. The results suggest an urgent demand for establishing terminological homogeneity in this research field in the Brazilian context.
