The cohabitation of various cultures, languages, practices, and religions in modern society is demonstrated, demonstrating the necessity of not only recognizing their uniqueness and difference but also of learning to coexist.
This course emphasizes the significance of reflecting these cultural distinctions within the same society, defending diversity on the basis of equality and the right to be different, as well as the need to develop a critical conscience that supports cultural understanding.
Intercultural translation involves not only transferring a text from a source language to a target language but also transferring those cultural aspects that are embodied in the source language.
I must admit that this course surprised me in all aspects, both the way of interacting in class and the way of giving different approaches to the topics covered.
In conclusion, the course showed us that translating involves more than simply translating a document from one language to another; it also entails assessing the context of the text, determining its purpose, and developing a similar text in a different language that is tailored to the target culture and environment. The translation of a document from Spanish in Mexico to French in Canada is not the same as the translation from Spanish in Spain to French in France. Understanding the origins of these works, the allusions and idioms employed, and adapting them to a new culture's idioms and traditions are all part of translating.
