| Abstract | ||
| The present paper attempts a semantico-pragmatic analysis of synecdoche as used in the Glorious Quran. It tries to examine the bearings of both semantics and pragmatics on religious texts. It focuses on the perlocutionary force, the impact intended on the recipient, indirectly but forcibly conveying the intended meaning (Austin, 1962). Hence, more is being communicated than is actually stated. The paper tries to depict the use of synecdoche in a religious context and whether translators could grasp the logical relations built through the use of this trope and opt for the most suitable renditions in English or not. | ||
