The aim of this paper is to study a translator’s intervention through epistemic modality and evidentiality and the resulting re-positioning effect on the reader from the perspective of dynamic equivalence. A translator’s voice adjusts the degree of interaction between the author of a source text (ST) and the readers of a target text (TT) and re-positions the readers in a text. The intended reader position by an ST author can be manipulated by a translator, and doing so can cause a plethora of equivalent effects. This paper shows how a translator’s voice engages in dynamic equivalence translation, where the impact on readers of an ST is expected to be maintained in the TT, and how it re-positions the readers and influences the interaction between the ST and the TT readers.
