Summary
The Effect of Translation Approach on Translation Competence Translation apps available in the market, such as DeepL and Google, smart keyboards capable of translating and related software have been produced to meet the current needs in the world. Yet the artificial intelligence has not replaced the human translator with emotional and creative intelligence. On the contrary, the importance of translators as individuals have grown and the content of the academic translator training is to be altered accordingly. Our project is based on the assumption that the translation approach dependent on the scientific knowledge directly shapes the translation as product. The parameters to evaluate translation are complex and interwoven. Although the translation sub-competence is an elementary part of the translation competence, it is still underresearched. (Eser 2015). Thus, this project aims to analyze translation sub-competence with a specific focus on translation approach and to construct a scale to be applied in German-Turkish language pair. The conceptual framework is based on Researching Translation Competence (2017) by PACTE team which conducts advanced research on acquisition of translation competence. The translation approach of undergraduates of Translation and Interpreting Studies B.A. Program and German Language and Literature B.A. Program at Ege University have been observed, a survey focusing on the sub-competence of translation which evaluates translation competence of the participants pursuant to the concepts of dynamic – static (Albir 2017, Albir vd. 2020) accordingly, the data acquired has been analyzed with IBM SPSS Statistics 25 and the deductions have been examined. A pivotal problem in translator training has been detected and a scale to be applied has been developed within the scope of the project which is based on activity research pattern.This project was supported by Ege University Scientific Research Projects Coordination Unit.
