In this course you will get the opportunity to improve the translation competences you achieved in ÜI and ÜII.

You will translate authentic source texts and will get the opportunity to improve your textual and cultural competence. You will also lern new translation strategies - everything with the aim to produce functional translations. Furthermore you will train your skills in correcting mistakes.

You will have to prepare translation assignments individually and within the specified time. These assignments will serve as a basis for interactive lessons (discussions! questions! active participation! ideas!)

2 written tests (exception: in the case of a translation project we would cancel one or both tests and the final grades would be established on the base of your project tasks).

You will receive all information about relevant literature as well as worksheets, source texts, etc. (files, copies or master copies - any copy costs will be collected at the end of the semester) in class.

To participate in this course, it is necessary that you have already passed the translation course ÜII French>German. Please bring a confirmation of your successful participation.

Attendance of the first lesson is a pre-requisite.
