"This new edition of the best-selling Spanish translation textbook, En otras palabras, is designed to be used in a one-semester course to advance language skills. It is introductory and intended to be as much a content-based course for advanced students as practical translation course material. Lunn and Lunsford have included a variety of authentic texts and practical exercises throughout, providing the opportunity for hands-on translation practice both into English from Spanish and into Spanish from English, which require different skills and foci. The varied activities offer students both independent and group practice, as well, opening opportunities for discussion about grammar topics, lexical issues, and cultural challenges in translation. The authors also include common errors and demonstrate the problem-solving techniques needed during translation. In this new tercera edición, the authors have replaced most of the texts and updated the activities and some images, as well. This book has been a successful textbook for us and keeps our offerings strong in advanced Spanish. The authors provide an instructor's manual (free on press.georgetown.edu) for teaching guidance"--
