Building a translation competence model

This chapter presents the translation competence mo del that is being worked on by the PACTE group and that is the basis for designing the hypotheses of an empirical-experimental study of tr anslation competence. This research is the first stage in a l arger project to investigate the process of translation competence a cquisition. The first part of the chapter describes our theoretical frame work and the first models that we designed in 1998. This is followed b y a brief presentation of the design of the research project. The last part of the chapter deals with the modification we have introdu ced in our 1998 translation competence model as a result of the fir st exploratory studies.
