• To develop a methodology of situated analysis, useful for the evaluation of terminology resources meant for translation.

Specialized Translations and Hot Potatoes

A useful type of exercise that can help students remember the keywords from a specialized translation can be done using JCross, one of the six programmes of the Hot Potatoes software.

Conclusions

• A specialized text requires team work. Working in pairs or teams of 3 may be a good option when these kind of texts are involved.
• When discussing new and maybe better choices are made
• Comparing the variants in writing for each part of the text allows students to improve their way of perception, their vocabulary.

A good specialized text will be of interest to the student as long as the text is relevant and resourceful enough for the student; the students will enrich their vocabulary, will improve their skills and abilities, and will be able to exchange useful information during discussion classes and create a bank of resourceful terms in several fields of activity.
