Description
Medical Translation Step by Step provides a comprehensive approach to medical translation, focusing on learner and learning-centred teaching tasks. This book explains the basics of medical translation and offers practical exercises to help students develop their skills. The text is structured around a broad communication framework, taking a top-down approach to medical translation that covers genres, texts, terms, and other units of specialized knowledge. The author's approach prioritises effective writing and empowering both students and teachers, rather than error analysis. Suitable for face-to-face learning, distance learning, or mixed situations, this book can be used as a course text or resource for teachers looking to supplement their materials.
