Abstract
The investigation of the speaker meaning, whether in consideration of context or not, remains a prominent aspect of translation. However, the meaning or intention behind utterances is often dependent on context and the communicative intentions of speakers. The present article explores the concept of speaker meaning and pragmatics across different registers, including literary, colloquial, and conversational contexts, in order to scrutinize the translation of a number of English sentences and their Persian equivalents. To achieve this, a comparative description research method was utilized to analyze both corpora. It is crucial to note that understanding the speaker meaning can enhance the intelligibility, readability, and comprehensibility of the target text. The results demonstrate the significance of this area of study in recognizing and conveying accurate and natural meaning and creating linguistic structures through faithful and idiomatic translation.
