Trip Method In Teaching Translation And Interpretation: A Trip Experience From Islamabad To Rohtas Fort And Mangala Dam
2022
Overview
The article deals with the application of Trip Method for the purpose of Teaching Translation and Interpretation, to observe its benefits, and usefulness. The trip consisted of 50 students from various nationalities i.e. Chinese, Arab, Africans, Thais and Pakistanis, of BS Translation & Interpretation from the Department of Translation & Interpretation, Faculty of Arabic, International Islamic University, Islamabad, Pakistan. This was a one-day trip from Islamabad to Rohtas Fort and Mangla Dam. The students were directed to sit in groups consisting of two students; one Pakistani and one foreign to play mutually the role of a translator and interpreter. From the starting point the students saw a large number of boards; sign boards, traffic signal boards, indicative boards, informative boards, wall chalking and banners that contained Arabic, English, Urdu and mix words of these three language along with a vast range of various kinds of terminologies. This is an innovative approach in teaching translation & interpretation. The students learnt a large number of new words, terminologies and abbreviations during seeing the written data and playing the role of an interpreter as well as a listener. The students observed transliteration of many Arabic words written in English alphabets, English words written in Urdu Language, and sometime a mixture of these three languages, that created a beautiful scenario for a student of English- Arabic Translation and Interpretation and vice versa. With addition to that on the way they observed the translational realia; villages, areas historical places like Rohtas Fort, Mangala Dam, famous mosques, tombs, vehicles, animals, mountains, plants, shrubs, and many more that provided them the real material for direct translation and interpretation. This activity helped them in bringing the theories, principles and translation strategies studied inside the class rooms, into practice. The students observed a large number of terminologies that created in them the sense of creating terminologies. The students saw many cultural events that at the spot translated and interpreted by Pakistani students, gave a sense of how to bridge the cultures through translation. The trip ended with fruitful, rich and very informative-cum-practical conclusion.
