DICTIONARY -USING SKILLS OF TRANSLATION STUDENTS
Abstrakt
Summary
The paper presents the survey conducted among the students of English Philology
at the Pedagogical University of Cracow concerning dictionaries and other resources used
by them in translation assignments. The results confirm a general trend observed in practice,
i.e. departure from traditional dictionaries. Considering the fact that online resources
often offer highly reduced content, it is postulated that a translation course should include
activities focusing on evaluation of such aids.
Keywords: translator’s education, dictionaries, translator’s tools
Abstract
W pracy opisano wyniki badania przeprowadzonego wśród studentów Filologii
Angielskiej Uniwersytetu Pedagogicznego w Krakowie na temat słowników i innych
narzędzi wykorzystywanych podczas tłumaczeń pisemnych. Badanie potwierdziło powszechną
tendencję odchodzenia od tradycyjnych słowników na rzecz narzędzi internetowych.
Rezultaty ankiety nasuwają wniosek o konieczności realizowania ze studentami
specjalizacji tłumaczeniowej zajęć z zakresu oceny przydatności i wiarygodności takich
źródeł.
Słowa kluczowe: dydaktyka przekładu, słowniki, narzędzia tłumacza
