THE ROLE OF COMPUTERS IN DEVELOPING STUDENTS’ TRANSLATION COMPETENCE

  • Teodora POPESCU

Résumé

Introduction
Computers nowadays provide great help to linguists, especially if we are to think of text
manipulation techniques: large storage, quick search and retrieval as well as networked
communication. As a result, the styles and efficiency of text processing, language learning
and translation can be greatly improved. Especially the existence of extensive electronic
corpora offers examples and generalisations of language usages, which in turn will
contribute to better language teaching and produce high-quality translation. Electronic tools
such as dictionaries, concordancers, encyclopaedias and Web page search engines offer
instant returns to inquiries about word or phrase usages. Secondly, upgraded machine
translation technology has turned into a helpful tool, not only to business and industry, but
also for translators and language learners. We can therefore say that the machine-aided
translation technology also has beneficial effects both on translation and on language
learning
