Language is the expression of ideas by means of speech sounds combined into words. Words are combined into sentences, this combination answering that of ideas into thoughts.

D ialect is a fair amount of variability in speakers' intuitions of syllabification, even when the dialect is controlled for.

Interpretation is rendering spoken source language into spoken target language through spoken words or signs.

A target language is a language that someone is learning or a language into which a text has to be translated.

Transcription is the process of putting oral speech into written form.

Translation is the process of turning an original or "source" text into a text in another language.

Interpreters and ancient civilizations.

A simultaneous interpretation has its origins in the Nuremberg trials, other types of interpretation, such as consecutive and whispered or chuchotage, have had great relevance in different periods of history, starting with ancient times.

Importance of punctuation marks in English and Spanish. (week 3)

What are punctuation marks?

Punctuation marks are signs or graphic marks that allow the writer to structure a written discourse, while allowing the reader to identify the inflections of the text, that is, the intonation mode and the necessary pauses that facilitate its understanding.

Punctuation Marks have an important role in written language since their correct use allows a coherent and unambiguous understanding of the content of a text.

Through punctuation marks, the texts are structured, ordering and hierarchizing the main and secondary ideas, which allows the reader a better interpretation, analysis and understanding of the content.

As early as 1350 B.C.  We can find evidence of the existence of these professionals in a famous image from the tomb of Tutankhamun, in which a character appears unfolded whispering on one side to an Assyrian ambassador and on the other to the pharaoh, showing that the interpreter is already in those times played an important role as a linguistic mediator.  The first testimonies about this profession are more than 5,000 years old and they contemplate their crucial intervention as commercial guides, in the military field and in the central administration of Memphis.

Others aspects
The role of the interpreter will also be crucial in the conquest of the New World.  During it, we will meet one of the first interpreters of the time: Malinche.  The story tells that this Aztec princess, who spoke both Mayan and Nahuatl, was handed over to our great conqueror Hernán Cortés after the battle of Centella.  Thanks to her bilingualism, she will be an interpreter, counselor, and intermediary for Cortés and will help in the process of Moctezuma's accusation and his subsequent execution.

What is the difference between translation and interpretation?

# data[].attributes.body
The difference between interpretation and translation is that interpretation deals with spoken language in real time while translation focuses on written content. Another difference is that translation happens over a period of time with extensive access to external resources, compared to interpretation which occurs on the spot during a live scenario.

Quotation marks (“”) (or speech marks)

They are used for two essential functions:

Highlight a word or phrase within a text.  For example: When I say “democracy” I mean the power of the people.

The hyphen (-)
It is used to separate words or to join them so that it allows establishing a relationship between syllables or words.

Brackets BRACKET S (US)/SQUARE BRACKETS (UK) […]

they are used in a similar way to parentheses, but are less common and adhere to certain caveats.

Brackets are used to introduce additional information to text that is already in parentheses.  For example, "Violeta Parra's last album (called Last Compositions [1966]) was her best-achieved work."

The full stop or period (.)
The most common use of the period is at the end of a sentence when we have finished presenting a complete idea.

Parentheses (…)

They serve to delimit.  Through them, words, phrases, or even paragraphs can be isolated.  This allows for clarifying or providing some complementary information to the main text.

Dash (—)

It is used to separate words or to join them so that it allows establishing a relationship between syllables or words.

The ellipsis (…)

they are formed by three points in a line and without space between them.

A colon (:)

We put a colon before writing enums.

The semicolon (;)

You can use it when you want to join two separate (independent) sentences that are related to each other, but between which no conjunction has been used.

The exclamation mark or exclamation point (!)

When an exclamation point is placed in parentheses, it usually denotes sarcasm or irony on the part of the writer.

Coma(,)

To separate sentences (grammatical structure formed by a subject and a predicate), especially when they are joined by and, but, so, or, nor, yet, or for.

The apostrophe(')
is used in contractions.

The mistake: Apple will announce it's new iPhone soon. Its a big year for the company.

Why it's wrong: "It's" is a contraction for "it is" or "it has." "Its," without an apostrophe, is a possessive pronoun.

The mistake: Those home's were built in the 1960's.

Why it's wrong: Apostrophes are used to indicate possession and create contractions. They're also used to pluralize single uppercase or lowercase letters, depending on which style guide you follow.

The mistake: I left work early but I missed my train and I waited in the station for 40 minutes until the next one finally came so I didn't get home until 8 p.m.

Why it's wrong: Without commas, sentences become a confusing, grammatically incorrect block of text.

The mistake: I went home, and ate dinner.

Why it's wrong: Using too many commas can also be grammatically incorrect. For example, a comma splice occurs when you connect two independent clauses with only a comma instead of a comma followed by a coordinating conjunction.

The mistake: I'll buy the iPhone 8 - if I save up enough money.

Why it's wrong: A dash ( — ), or em dash or long dash, is most commonly used to indicate a meaningful pause in text or abrupt change in thought.

The mistake: The traffic was crazy today; but I arrived at work on time.

Why it's wrong: Semicolons are most commonly used to separate two independent clauses that are closely related in meaning or subject matter. Compared to a comma or a period, a semicolon emphasizes the relationship between two clauses. For example, I can't go out tonight; I'm running a marathon tomorrow.

The mistake: I ate three things for lunch; a sandwich, an apple, and a bag of chips.

Why it's wrong: Don't use a semicolon to do a colon's job. Anything you write after a colon should be a summary, interpretation, or elaboration of what came before the colon. Colons can also be used to add emphasis and introduce dialogue or quotes.

Mistake using colon
l bought groceries, including: ice cream, canots, and soy milk.
The Fix
Remove either the introductory phrase or the colon.
l bought groceries: ice cream, carrots, and soymilk.

Mistake with bracket
Please read the analysis. (You'll be amazed.)
An entire sentence in parentheses is often accepted without an enclosed period
Please read the analysis (you'll be amazed).

mistake using exclamation marks.

It Can not be!!!
It is not necessary to use more than one exclamation mark to make clear the expression.

It can not be!

Mistake using the ellipsis.

I have already bought everything for the party: chips, beers, bread, soft drinks, etc…

The ending is wrong. These two options should never be used together, as they indicate the same thing and would be redundant. So the solution is to choose one of the days, the one you like the most.

I've already bought everything for the party: chips, beers, bread, soft drinks...
