Congratulations to @AmyColman1984 for successfully defending her dissertation on ‘Translation product evaluation in translator training’! An interesting finding: in her study looking at L1 Dutch and L2 English BA students (n=32), L2 translation quality was slightly better than L1

[Jack McMartin @jacksaidthat]

@cetrakuleuven .@PJFreeth maybe you know someone who’d be interested given you work on similar themes?
