Description

This course in translation from English to French serves a dual purpose: to give students an opportunity to expand their French vocabulary and grammatical skills and to initiate them to specific written styles in the target language (French). To this end, a number of recurring semantic, grammatical and syntactic features of French will be studied through shorter translation exercises and through the translation of longer documents, e.g., newspaper articles, business letters or scientific abstracts.

Requisite courses
