第11屆亞洲口譯論壇
11th Asian Interpreting Symposium

口譯研究長年以來以歐美為中心，無論實務見解、教學方法、理論發展，脈絡背景均是西方語言、文化、社會、經濟。然而，亞洲語言與西方語言有諸多不同，社會制度、文化習俗、教育理念也與西方相異。因此當口譯教師試圖將西方的教學理論或方法應用在東方的教室裡，就會碰到不少窒礙難行的地方。因此，部分教師開始針對自己所面臨的狀況，展開新的研究，探索亞洲的口譯實務與教學是否有不同於歐美的發展方向。

​

「亞洲口譯論壇」便是在這樣的氛圍下誕生。臺灣大學翻譯碩士學位學程主辦今年的亞洲口譯論壇，邀請來自臺、港、日、韓四地擁有豐富口譯實務經驗之口譯教師，以座談的方式討論各地口譯教學。歡迎對口譯實務、口譯教學、口譯研究有興趣的教師、學生、社會大眾，蒞臨指導。

Interpreting studies are rooted in the West. Professional insights, teaching methods, and theoretical development are usually based on Western languages, cultures, societies, and economic systems. However, there are significant differences between Asia and Western languages, social systems, cultural customs, and educational philosophies. Therefore, when interpreting teachers in Asia attempt to apply Western teaching theories or methods in an Oriental classroom, they encounter many obstacles. As a result, some teachers have begun to conduct new research to explore whether interpreting practice and teaching in Asia should take a different direction than in Europe and America.

This is the context that gave rise to the "Asia Interpreting Symposium". The Graduate Program in Translation and Interpretation of National Taiwan University is pleased to organize the 2023 edition. Experienced interpreting teachers from Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan, and South Korea will be invited to participate in panel discussions about interpreting pedagogy in their respective regions. Teachers, students, and the general public who are interested in interpreting practice, interpreting teaching, and interpreting research are welcome to attend this online meeting.
