授業概要 This course helps students gain basic translation skills in Japanese and English while nurturing intercultural understanding. Translation is an extremely useful skill when working for a company that conducts business with foreign clients. Translation, however, is not simply a linguistic skill but it requires a deep understanding of the clients, socio-cultural background as well as their communication styles. In this course, students learn linguistic skills while paying attention to socio-cultural and communication issues. Students will first learn the importance of accuracy and examine the context of the text.
学修目標 By the end of the semester, you will:
・know basic rules and expectations about translating
・be able to use basic translation skills
・be able to translate documents on several topics with reasonable accuracy
・be familiar with socio-cultural issues as they relate to translation contexts
