5 - أسلوب استخدام المفردات السهلة:
مال المترجمان كلاهما إلى استخدام المفردات السهلة بشكل عام، اللهم إذا ما استثنينا المفردات القديمة بعض الشيء. فقد ابتعدا في معظم الأحيان عن أسلوب استعراض العضلات المتمثل في استخدام كلمات ومصطلحات غريبة وصعبة ومعقدة وطنانة رنانة. والهدف من ذلك التعبير عن المعنى بلغة سهلة وسلسة مما ييسر الفهم على القارئ، ومن أمثلة ذلك: ﴿قُلْ لَوْ كَانَ الْبَحْرُ مِدَادًا لِكَلِمَاتِ رَبِّي لَنَفِدَ الْبَحْرُ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَنْفَدَ كَلِمَاتُ رَبِّي وَلَوْ جِئْنَا بِمِثْلِهِ مَدَدًا * قُلْ إِنَّمَا أَنَا بَشَرٌ مِثْلُكُمْ يُوحَى إِلَيَّ أَنَّمَا إِلَهُكُمْ إِلَهٌ وَاحِدٌ فَمَنْ كَانَ يَرْجُو لِقَاءَ رَبِّهِ فَلْيَعْمَلْ عَمَلًا صَالِحًا وَلَا يُشْرِكْ بِعِبَادَةِ رَبِّهِ أَحَدًا﴾ [الكهف: 109 –110]
(سيل):
Say, if the sea were ink to write the words of my LORD, verily the sea would fail, before the words of my LORD would fail; although we added another sea like unto it as a further supply. Say, Verily I am only a man as ye are. It is revealed unto me that your GOD is one only GOD: let him therefore who hopeth to meet his LORD, work a righteous work; and let him not make any other to partake in the worship of his LORD.
(آربري):
Say: if the sea were ink for the Words of my Lord, the sea would be spent before the Words of my Lord are spent, though We brought replenishment the like of it. Say: I am only a mortal the like of you; it is revealed to me that your God is One God. So let him, who hopes for the encounter with his Lord, work righteousness, and not associate with his Lord's service anyone.
