Conclusion

CONCLUSIONS

    Translation ability is very important in foreign students and teacher, when they aren’t in their country or when they are in a place where the native language is different to they speak. Then, those contacts with foreign languages serve as translation activities can be employed to enhance the four skills and develop accuracy, clarity and flexibility (Duff 1989:7). Translation was abandoned as an option in ESL situations, but not in the state education in many countries. It seems now that the general attitude towards translation has begun to change: those who discuss it in their studies argue that translation is a legitimate pedagogical tool especially in an EFL.

    The literature on translation deals either with translation theories or translator’s training and contains only part of relevant information. Only a small number of works are devoted to translation as an aid to teaching and learning.

I have argues that "trains the learner to search (flexibility) for the most appropriate words (accuracy) to convey what is meant (clarity).

  MARIA ELENA GARCIA e) Translation has been an important part of English language teaching for a long time, but it has been abandoned since communicative methodologies became dominant. There are several methods that have been used in the teaching of foreign languages ​​in general, and English in particular, these correspond to the different methodological currents. One of the first methods used in the teaching of English and other modern languages ​​is The method based on grammar and translation, is a deductive and mentalist method, according to which the language is acquired memorizing grammatical rules and paradigms, And long lists of vocabulary, and is practiced applying that knowledge in exercises of direct and inverse translation.
