The 3rd yr Language and Translation course (first language) comes under the core learning activities (Specialized languages, advanced linguistic competences and linguistic mediation from and to the languages of study) of the “Languages and cultures studies of the respective country” of the bachelor’s degree course in Languages and Cultural & Linguistic Mediation, specifically those activities aimed at providing effective operational competence at the levels established for the first language, as well as theoretical knowledge of specialized foreign language, of activities and strategies of linguistic and cultural mediation, in particular in multilingual contexts.
The course aims at making students:
- achieve C1 level for all abilities - Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) 2018 (https://rm.coe.int/cefr-companion-volume-with-new-descriptors-2018/1680787989), through reception, production, interaction, written and spoken mediation activities as well as their related strategies.
- consolidate their metalinguistic reflection also at comparative level: structural, textual, sociolinguistic and pragmatic aspects.
- use resources and tools for language study and for translation (dictionaries, corpora and concordances).
- implement their acquired knowledge to the analysis and translation of texts belonging to different genres.
- know and understand theoretical and methodological issues related to translation as linguistic-cultural mediation.
-analyze diverse oral and written text types also in order to plan short linguistic and cultural teaching paths within L2 didactics in educational and institutional contexts.
Expected learning results: students will be able to use their first foreign language at C1 level for all abilities; land they will be able to use the corresponding communicative strategies; they will be able to carry out metalinguistic reflection activities in a comparative perspective; they will learn and start using tools for language study; they will have basic notions on communication and intercultural mediation; they will apply acquired knowledge to the analysis of short texts in the language of study.
