翻译技术速递Discover Translation for this year’s European Day of Languages
在今年的欧洲语言日发现翻译
In 2001, the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe declared the 26 September the European Day of Languages.
Its main objectives are:
to celebrate Europe’s linguistic and cultural diversity
to underline the importance of language learning in order to promote plurilingualism and intercultural understanding
to encourage language learning for all Europeans at all ages and in all forms
Europe is home to over 200 indigenous European languages in addition to many more languages brought to Europe from all over the world. With increased globalisation and freedom of movement within the EU, knowing foreign languages opens up many opportunities: a 2012 study by the European Commission found that 61% of European respondents thought that the main advantage of learning a new language is the ability to live and work in another country.
In such a multilingual and multicultural Europe, translators play a vital role in building bridges between languages and cultures. To celebrate the European Day of Languages, the European Commission’s DG for Translation launched the campaign #DiscoverTranslation to raise awareness of the vital importance and benefits of professional translation. The campaign will focus on three topics:
translation and health care
translation and culture & entertainment
translation and every-day life
Throughout the month of September, you will be able to participate in various events and workshops around multilingualism and translation.
The European Parliament honours the European Day of Languages, or Multilingualism Day, through a series of workshops on the day of the 26 September, covering topics such as the daily life of translators and interpreters or the history of European languages.

2001年，欧洲委员会部长理事会宣布9月26为欧洲语言日。
其主要目标是:
庆祝欧洲的语言和文化多样性
强调语言学习对于促进多语制和理解跨文化的重要性
鼓励各个年龄段的欧洲人以各种形式学习语言
欧洲是200多种欧洲土著语言的家园，此外还有许多从世界各地带到欧洲的语言。随着全球化程度的提高和欧盟内部人员流动的自由，掌握外语带来了许多机会:欧盟委员会2012年的一项研究发现，61%的欧洲受访者认为学习一门新语言的主要优势是能够在另一个国家生活和工作。
在这样一个多语言，多元文化的欧洲，翻译家在连结语言和文化之间方面起着至关重要的作用。为庆祝欧洲语言日，欧洲联盟委员会负责翻译的总干事发起了#发现翻译运动，以提高对专业翻译至关重要性和益处的认识。该运动将着重于三个主题:
翻译和医疗服务
翻译与文化娱乐
翻译和日常生活
在整个9月份，你将能够参加各种有关多语言和翻译的活动和讲习班。
欧洲议会在9.26日举办一系列的讲习班，来纪念欧洲语言日或者多语言日，这些讲习班涉及笔译员和口译员的日常生活或欧洲语言的历史等主题。
