Elective Course
GRMN4005 Advanced Chinese-German translation 6 credits
 
This is a course for translating texts with complex structures between German and Chinese using a variety of texts written in different styles at a more advanced and detailed level. It will provide students with advanced level translation skills and a further understanding of German grammar and syntax. The course will also take text linguistics into account that deals with the interactional, communicative context of the texts, rather than just a sentence or word. Students will practise additional structures and texts gradually and learn about the stylistic differences of various fields (newspaper articles, literary texts, business correspondence and documents, etc.).
