Translation is an old method of teaching foreign languages. Its usefulness in this area heavily relies on the fact that utilizing the mother tongue’s linguistic system serves as a suitable foundation of linguistic rules to be assimilated by FL learners. Translation provides a meaningful context with in which the FL rules are compared and contrast with those of the mother tongue. Such strategies that are based on translation help learners produce FL texts that are expected to be correct after a series of revisions of rules and, also of words and expression, pertaining to particular contexts. In translation, the learner develops the skill of producing written texts after spending a good time relying on translation theories and considering language theories, as well. Interpreting, on the other hand, helps foreign language learners produce spoken texts based on the theories of interpreting, as well as language as a system. Using stories, for example and making students translate them, improves the students’ ability to write similar stories in that foreign language. Learning a foreign language, then, necessitates learning translation theories that works on texts and their equivalents.
