"Debabelizing minds beyond language" - Day 1
This year I had the
chance for the second time to be a part of the 2012 Translation and
Interpretation Students Congress celebrated at INACAP Apoquindo on October 25th
and 26th.
After the welcoming
speeches, the first exposition on day one started. It was someone we already
knew from last year. Gertrudis Payàs and her investigation about the Linguistic
of Translation. Payàs is a PhD in Translation Studies from Ottawa University.
Today, she is a teacher and a researcher at Universidad Católica de Temuco. She
was firm about that language caused differentiation and social exclusion, whether
for better or worse. Payàs insisted that we must prevent languages from disappearing.
We have to keep our identity, translate and keep our language alive, not a mix
with the invasive English.
