Translation 1: German-to-English translation of current news articles that deal with events in the English-speaking world. Focus on the typical features of journalese through "parallel" German and English articles covering the same stories, using these "matching articles" to translate accurately and idiomatically. The course website stores the texts, with an annotated translation and highlighted matching articles.
