Translation has been proposed as a method for teaching and learning foreign languages by having students translate texts into the foreign language. However, critics argued that translation interferes with the natural language learning process. While controversial, translation continues to be widely used in foreign language classrooms as a technique to develop language proficiency and promote understanding of linguistic differences and similarities between languages. Translation can trigger discussions about language and culture that involve intercultural communication skills.

communication across cultures. Translation is necessarily an
example of intercultural communication.
The recipients of the translation may consquently fail to recognize

empirical translation work.
