| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Acquiring English language skills to cope with the globalization of communication is a challenging endeavor. As one possible solution, we conducted research on how the application of a genre-based approach, an underlying concept of English for Specific Purposes (ESP), might help English language learners refine their language skills. For the research, we analyzed Japanese-to-English translation data from translation trainees studying at an English-language school in Japan and interviews with U.S. graduate school students majoring in interpretation and translation. Our findings indicate the benefits of such a method, especially for professional training to refine the usage of a second language.
