Pragmatics in Translation

After completing the course, students are expected to be able to identify problems of translating source texts into the target texts in the level of lexis, phrase, clause, sentence, and discourse, and to provide solutions. A mini project of translating text done in groups is assigned to the students as final examination. Here, students are required to write their experiences in analyzing texts, observing parallel texts, translating texts and eventually provide their opinions on the best practices of translating.
