The European language 2 MA course comes under the core educational activities of the MA course in Modern Languages for International Communication and, specifically, among the founding and cross-curricular activities aimed at deepening knowledge and competences in both the linguistic, cultural and textual heritage of the languages studied. The course aims at strengthening the linguistic, sociolinguistic, metalinguistic and pragmatic competences in the language object of study in international communication contexts with the achievement of the C1 level in all receptive and productive skills.
Specifically, the following will be strengthened:
a) ability to interact in the foreign language also within specialist contexts;
b) ability to analyse written, spoken and multimedia genres and text typologies within general and specialised language use;
c) ability to use mediation and translation strategies in spoken and written communication;
c.1) analysis, translation and production of short texts belonging to different textual genres and produced in a number of specialised sectors (workshop);
d) application of acquired knowledge to different textual typologies;
e) (spoken and written) mediation competences within multilingual and multicultural interaction contexts;
f) knowledge and use of information technology tools for corpora analysis (written, spoken and multimedia texts) in specific research contexts;
g) capacity of planning brief research studies, also on the language teaching methodology of the language/s studied;
g.1) development of research, also on the language teaching methodology of the language studied (workshop).
Expected learning results: students will have knowledge and competences at a C1 level in the language studied; they will have linguistic, sociolinguistic, metalinguistic and pragmatic competences in the language object of study in international communication contexts; they will be able to interact in the foreign language also in specialist contexts; to analyse written, spoken and multimedia genres and textual typologies; to understand mediation and translation processes; they will have competences of mediation in multilingual and multicultural interaction contexts, of planning short research studies of the language studied; they will know (and be able to use) the information and technology tools for corpora analysis.

Programme
The course aims to analyze the textual and linguistic characteristics of web-mediated hybrid textual genres in charge of scientific dissemination (TED Talks) or scientific semidivulgation (ENCIDIS videoverbetes) and to provide students with adequate tools to be able to subtitle videoverbetes (technical-translating skills) and to reflect critically on the technical-scientific PB, especially on the variety of monitored academic speech of Brazilian Portuguese.Furthermore, students will have refined their linguistic-communicative skills in the two varieties (PE and PB).
These knowledge and skills will be acquired through regular participation in lectures and other supplementary teaching activities.

Type of delivery of the course
The lessons will take place in DAD mode using the Microsoft Teams software platform.Type of evaluation
At the end of the course, the student will have to present a project work: each student will choose a videoverbete and, using one of the software used in the course, will produce a subtitle in Italian. The video and the subtitle file will be given to the teacher ten days before the exam, unless otherwise communicated by the teacher. During the exam, which takes place orally, the student will discuss subtitling and defend the translation choices made (both in terms of lexical choices and segmentation/spotting methods), referring to the instructions received, the specific technical constraints of subtitling, lexical research and the strategies applied during the course.
