Course description
This course builds on the translation concepts introduced in CHIN2700 and extends their application to texts of both the same and new, more complex, genre. In so doing, an advanced understanding of genre-specific issues in translation from Chinese into English is provided as well as advanced development of context-appropriate English expression. This course may be cancelled if there are fewer than 20 enrolments.
