| Abstract This paper sets out to find out how far the perlocutionary factors can be achieved in three texts namely, legal, literary, and humorous. It is found that the factors of perlocution vary according to the type of text, in legal text perlocution can be achieved by clear marking, little exegesis and no recontextualization in order to preserve the realities, concepts and terms imployed in the ST without resorting to explain them. In literary translation perlocution can be achieved by balancing some marking with some exegesis in order to affect the TT reader and aesthetic experience similar to that of the original reader and produce a perlocutionary effect analogous to them. Finally, in humorous text, perlocution can be arrived at by locating the humorous aspect of the SL text and attempting to duplicate it in the TL and hence, the need for marking is removed and the same goes for exegesis, whereas recontextulization is much needed. | ||
