Translations differ from native texts this is a widely accepted fact. Nowadays the investigation focuses on the question how they differ examining the style of translation, more precisely translation universals features inherent to translation independent of the language involved. This work is a response to Christopher Hopkinson''s hypothesis based on a functional, meaning-based typology of explicitness shifts. Hopkinson studied binary coherence relations, which he divided into static and dynamic. His conclusion was that dynamic relations attract a relatively higher degree of explicitation. The current work is an attempt to redefine the static and dynamic relations introduced by Hopkinson and to apply this revised typology on a corpus of newspaper texts. Hopkinson also observed that the target texts tend to be more explicitly dynamic. A comparable corpus was thus used in order to explore target and original texts in terms of their internal coherence based on dynamic or static relations. The work is a reaction to a hypothesis introduced by another scholar and as such hopes to contribute to the present discussion on the nature of translation universals.
