| Abstract | ||
| Translation students tend to interfere their first language in the process of writing in English when they are translating a given text. Translation trainees commit errors while trying to perform the different tasks assigned to them. These students' errors are deviations from linguistic norms; and they can be seen at all levels of language. There are errors of various types in trainees' translations and to varied degrees. Errors are classified as either minor; if they do not harm the content and communication, or major if they stand in the way of communication. The present paper aims at presenting a detailed account of errors and error correction in translation as a technique for teaching translation. To fulfill the aims, the study identifies a number of errors committed by a sample of 10 students from Translation Dept. / Al-Ma'mon Univ. College. Afterward, the researcher categorizes the errors according to the following taxonomy: grammatical, lexical, semantic, and word order. Understanding the linguistic differences between students' L1 and English may help them to reduce the interference from their first language. | ||
