Abstract

In the present article, we compare the solutions proposed by the three Arabic translators
of Pedro Páramo by Juan Rulfo to translate the culturemes related to the flora, and we
analyze the techniques they have used to transmit them to Arabic, given that the flora is a
sub-domain cultural that presents many difficulties to the translator, because it is related
to his translation competence and his knowledge of the target language and culture.
