Waysoftranslation • The transliteration: • «The main story is potentially a drama, even a melodrama», – explains the director who chose to develop the two stories in parallel, non-chronologically. • «Головна історія – це потенційна драма, і навіть мелодрама» – каже режисер, який вирішив розвинути дві сюжетні лінії паралельно і поза хронологічного порядку.
Waysoftranslation • The transcription: • Age of Extinction is underway, and this trailer likely is the last full blast of footage that we’ll see before the movie opens. • Зйомки фільму «Трансформери: Епоха винищення» продовжуються, і можливо, кадри трейлеру цього фільму стануть останніми кадрами, які ми побачимо перед прем’єрою.

Waysoftranslation • The calque: • A Golden Globe and Emmy nominated actor, Australian-born Simon Baker has an impressive background that spans both film and television, capturing the attention of audiences worldwide. • Лауреат премій «Золотий Глобус» і «Еммі», австралійський актор Саймон Бейкер, може похвалитися вражаючою колекцією ролей, як в кіно, так і на телебаченні, які привертають до нього увагу глядачів усього світу.
Suggestions • To avoid the excessive use of transcription and transliteration; • to work out organizing methods of movie terminology translation into Ukrainian language; • to define the clear criteria for appropriateness of foreign borrowing terms that contribute to the formation of Ukrainian terminological sphere of cinema; • to update Ukrainian movie and television vocabulary with full equivalents.
