An Approach To English As A Second Language Acquisition Through The Use Of Translation Among Students At University Of Tetova

Abstract

Translation has long played a significant role in teaching and learning a foreign language. Aside with that, translation as a learning technique is considered to be of a great importance. Students tend to use translation in order to learn new English vocabulary words and grammar, to learn phrases as well as idioms, and also to read and write in English. They also use it to make clarifications on the similarities and differences that the English language and their mother- tongue language have.
