Topic
How we created a Chinese translation reference book

Preview
During 2017-2018 I wrote a study guide on Theory and Practice of translation and interpretation in Chinese language for students of the Department of Philology, BSU with major in "Eastern philology". This study guide is an interdisciplinary book for translators and interpreters based on several subjects (technical and science translation, community and political interpretation, etc.) and functional styles (literary, informal, journalistic, official, etc.).

My presentation will show you the basic principles of writing a study guide and choosing educational samples. I will also talk on the complex of exercises that were developed to help students to learn the principles of translation and interpretation. I will be happy to hear opinions of my colleagues on "the ideal study guide", because I hope it won't be our last publication.
