翻譯幫忙作弊 英取消駕照外語筆試
由於外語翻譯幫忙應考人作弊情況嚴重，英國交通部決定取消駕照筆試配外語翻譯的作法。今後外國移民將跟英國人一樣，自己答英文考題。
前幾年，英國工黨政府修改筆試規定。外國移民應考，路政司會派翻譯協助。翻譯在應考人身邊把題目翻譯給應考人聽。

學測英文 國片熱入翻譯題
學測英文 國片熱入翻譯題
近年來，國片市場大受肯定，今年學測英文的翻譯題，就取材自台灣剛起步的國片產業。寫作題則有別於前幾年的看圖說故事，今年要學生寫一封信，給沉溺於電玩的好朋友，接近學生日常生活經驗。
今年英文科的寫作測驗是寫書信，要學生寫一封信給沉溺於電玩的好朋友，考生必須對書信格式有一定認識，建國中學英文老師楊淑雯指出，以往英文也考過書信體寫作，只要考生有練習過學測和指考的考古題，對書信寫作就不陌生，只要依據生活經驗加以發揮就可以，要注意的是，考生要以大考中心規定的屬名寫作。

學者建議龍英文翻譯改為loong
學者建議龍英文翻譯改為loong
金龍報喜迎財神，2012為中國農曆龍年壬辰年，中國人迎金龍生龍子龍女，象徵大富大貴大吉祥，不過在西方國家文化中，dragon與中國傳統的龍除了形象略為相似外，背景和象徵意義都差異甚大。
中國經濟網指出，當初西方將中國的龍翻譯為dragon的人，就像是給聖人與殺人犯起相同的名字，但其實兩者並無關聯。

Overcast skies cast gray start to 2012
Overcast skies cast gray start to 2012
The China Post news staff--To the disappointment of those eager to witness year 2012's first break of dawn, thick clouds and moisture blocked all possible views of the sunrise yesterday morning, said the Central Weather Bureau (CWB) and administration offices of national scenic areas across Taiwan, yesterday.
Despite the CWB's forecast that limited rainfall and thick clouds might be disadvantageous for watching the sunrise, many people still flooded to Taitung's Sansiantai (三仙台), Taipei's Fulong (福隆), Taichung's Lishan (梨山), and Chiayi's Alishan (阿里山), hoping otherwise.
According to the weather forecast issued by the CWB, the first break of dawn should appear at 6:27 a.m., and the bureau had prepared to live-broadcast the moment online from the weather station setup on Yushan, Taiwan's tallest mountain.

兩人好交情 翻譯台灣文學著力深
八十七歲的齊邦媛和七十八歲的林文月情誼深厚，兩人曾分別任教台大外文系和中文系，現在同為台大榮譽教授。兩人對台灣的文學翻譯領域都有貢獻。齊邦媛曾是《中華民國筆會季刊》主編，也和哥倫比亞大學合作《台灣現代華語文學》英譯計畫，推動英譯台灣文學作家作品；林文月則是台灣翻譯《源氏物語》第一人。
林文月表示，她出生上海日本租界，第一種會寫、會說的語言實為日文，大學時期開始翻譯少年讀物。一九七○年參與日本筆會的論文發表，將《長恨歌》和《源氏物語》作比較，附錄《源氏物語》的翻譯，「意外得到讀者迴響，最後花了五年半時間，翻譯完《源氏物語》。」
