Provide students with the appropriate technical and linguistic tools in order to develop the knowledge and skills needed to perform dialogic interpretation to the best of their ability.
The main knowledge and skills to be achieved are:
- improve oral comprehension in Italian and English
- learning translation strategies that are functional for different situations and communicative contexts, with particular attention to register and style;
- deepen knowledge of the culture of English-speaking countries;
- reflect on ethical/professional issues related to linguistic/cultural mediation;
- master specific terminology in the semantic fields that will arise during the course;
- to sound out the micro-languages of the situations most frequently encountered in "for special purposes" language mediation contexts.
