ECONOMIC TRANSLATION TEACHING IN NON-LINGUISTIC UNIVERSITY

Abstract

The article is devoted to a problem of economic translation teaching to non-linguistic students in higher educational institutions of Russia. The urgency and importance of the ability to translate special texts for future specialists in their practical activities is substantiated. The main feature of economic texts, special terminology, is considered in the context of two theory approaches, logical and linguistic. The necessity of taking this aspect into account while teaching students translation is proved. Using the example of the text from a textbook, an attempt to structure translation difficulties is presented. In accordance with it, at the end of the 3rd semester students’ translation works in the Institute of Economics and Entrepreneurship of Lobachevsky State University are analyzed. Further ways of improving students’ translation skills and developing methods of teaching economic translation in a non-linguistic university are given.
