Question: What is a translation of an existing work considered?
- Collective work
- Compilation
- Trademark
- Derivative work
Explanation
Copyright can protect original expression in an existing work and also control adaptations based on that work. A translated version changes the language while still relying on the protected expression of the original. Permission from the rights holder may be required before creating or distributing that adapted version. In YouTube rights management, claims should be based on rights that are actually owned or licensed.
Why the other options are incorrect
Collective work is incorrect because it refers to separate works assembled together, not an adaptation of one work.
Compilation is incorrect because it involves selecting and arranging existing material, not transforming the original expression.
Trademark is incorrect because it protects brand identifiers, not adapted creative expression.
