Learning objectives

On finishing this course, the student will be able: - to identify the principles of terminology, mainly in the French-speaking context; - to acquire the methods and the main IT tools of terminography; - to apply these concepts and instruments in French-Italian translation in the fields of tourism and international business; - to have a language competence in French corresponding to level C1 of the CEFR.

Prerequisites and basic notions

In order to pass the exame it is COMPULSORY to have completed the exams of Language and Literature of the 2nd year.
The oral examination concerns the entire program and can be taken after obtaining C1 level.
The verification of language level is based on the certifications issued by the CLA (Centro Linguistico d'Ateneo) or other institutions recognized by the MIUR (DELF C1, DFP DALF C1, Esabac, please consult the dedicated web page on the CLA website) and is preparatory to the oral examination.

Program

The course illustrates the basic notions of terminology and specialized translation and is divided into three parts. The first part examines some of the main theories of translation and the basic notions of pragmatic translation, with an in-depth analysis of the interlinguistic relations between terms in the translation of specialized texts. The second part of the course examines the terminology, the notion of term and the terminographic practice of the Francophone context, also through the analysis and use of digital resources, such as terminological databases and specialized corpora. The third part will address the topic of terminological neology, illustrating its specificities compared to “spontaneous” neology and presenting some cases of neology in the commercial, tourist, editorial and literary fields.
