A Coursebook on English-Chinese Translation provides practical strategies to ensure natural Chinese translation whilst highlighting how integral language learning strategies are to translation teaching.
After setting the stage of what translating is as a linguistic activity, the book explains and identifies the intrinsic features of the Chinese language in order to strengthen students’ translation competence. It demonstrates how the characteristics are interlinked, and in what ways they are intertwined with Chinese culture. Activities are provided within each chapter for students to consolidate their understanding. Students will enhance their written Chinese and gain a solid foundation for further development of the skills required to become a professional translator.
This book offers a novel and much-needed approach to teaching and learning Chinese translation and is also suitable for advanced students of Chinese language.
Yu Kit Cheung is Senior Lecturer in Chinese Translation Studies at the University of Manchester, UK.
