Translation: Introduction
This document introduces some basic concepts about language and translation. It defines language as a means of communication that allows people to express ideas, thoughts and feelings. Translation is described as delivering an equivalent meaning, voice and experience when conveying ideas from one language to another. An analogy is provided that imagines languages as different transportation lines that ideas must switch between at certain stops, with translation being this process of switching lines while maintaining key requirements. Some challenges of translation are noted, including finding the right strategies to overcome equivalence issues and balancing accuracy to the original text with creating a natural feeling translation.

Interpretation vs. translation
The document compares and contrasts interpretation and translation. It states that interpretation involves transferring meaning between spoken languages in real time, either in person or remotely, while translation transfers meaning between written languages and can be done after the fact. Interpreters aim for accuracy but may omit some details in live conversation, while translators have time to evaluate and revise for greater accuracy. Interpreters must be fluent in both the source and target languages to work in both directions simultaneously without references, whereas translators typically only work from their native language. Both roles involve making cultural references understandable, but interpreters must also convey tone, voice, and other intangible elements of speech.
Difference Between Translation and Interpretation
The document discusses the key differences between translation and interpretation. A translator works with written text while an interpreter works with spoken words. A translator produces a written output while an interpreter provides a spoken output. While translators typically work in one language direction, interpreters are able to work bi-directionally and translate between two languages fluently. The document also provides descriptions of the skills required of good translators and interpreters and examples of where each type of work typically takes place.

The document then provides an overview of the translation process, including establishing the project goals, analyzing the source text, creating an initial draft, getting feedback, revising the draft, and creating a final version.
translation and interpretation
Translation deals with written text, transforming the source text into an equivalent target text, while interpretation involves giving understanding through spoken language so the meaning can be easily understood by listeners. Interpretation occurs in real time through in-person, phone, or video services, whereas translation involves the written word and typically takes more time after a text is created. While translators have time to evaluate and revise for accuracy, interpreters aim to be completely accurate but may omit some details, as they interpret live conversations without reference materials.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
