Translation strategies for English language learners

Abstract

This book is targeted for upper intermediate English language learners who are still polishing their foreign language skills and want to practice translation in certain fields. By the end of the book, English language learners will have practiced translation, considered to be the fifth skill to be developed after the four basic ones: listening, reading, speaking and writing. They will also have practiced translation strategies which are also helpful in other foreign languages. In short, students will be able to create a final translated version that should reflect the cultural background inherent in each language and, most likely, will resemble the original idea.
