my skills and techniques to complete assigned tasks as follows 12 First of all, I spent the first day at the department of News to get information about translating news So, I obtained background knowledge of many fields After that, I was assigned English news to translate into Vietnamese and vice versa Through the work, I used dictionaries like English – Vietnamese dictionary, Vietnamese – English dictionary, Collocation dictionary, TFlat dictionary, materials about translating skill and visited some websites regarding to topics of the texts Moreover, I translated texts on my own based on knowledge of translating having acquired at school When having the uncertainty of some ideas presented in the texts, I searched information and checked collocations on Google at first Then I tried my best to read and comprehend the main ideas the texts Sometimes, I asked my teammates for suggestion Furthermore, I asked some friends and experienced translators for some advice and tips to translate news and topics relating to Finance, Economy, Banking, Military and Polity Results of the internship I successfully completed my mission with units of translated texts (more than 6000 words) in the first period and units of translating texts (more than 2000 words) in the second period of the internship in time CHAPTER 3: PRACTICAL EXPERIENCES New skills acquired and skills improved In the first period, I learned a lot of techniques and methods from the supervisor’s feedbacks when she corrected and edited my translating work First of all, I needed to look up the dictionary carefully and try my best to translate with my ability For example, “attend+N” not “attend to+N” Second, it is not easy to paraphrase sentences from Vietnamese to English Before translating, I should read and understand the meaning, and then summarize and note main ideas and rewrite in English without changing meaning Third, choosing and using sentence structures are very important to avoid misunderstandings when reading in English Forth, there were complex Vietnamese sentences and were divided into many parts Each part will be translated into a short English sentence A Vietnamese sentence can contains many the words that seem to be difficult to translate into English, so it can be translated by two or more than two English sentences Translating required meticulosity and flexibility A translator can use dictionaries and is not allowed to use Google translate Moreover, to cope with translating news from English to Vietnamese, I had to equip myself an in-depth understanding and more knowledge in the press and many fields such as economy, education, polity, military and so on During two-month internship, I encountered a lot of terms in economy, polity, military and finance This urged me to 13 develop the searching technique, reading materials and using word on my own, which is also an essential element to become a professional translator in the future Table 1: Suggestions for the texts in target language after receiving supervisor’s editing Elements Original Extract from Instructor’s sentences translated texts suggestions Ngân hàng Nhà The

Bank of State Bank of Vietnam Vietnam In addition, I improved some personal skills that are very necessary for an intern I had chances to communicate with staffs in the office and face-to-face with the leaders there, which helped me improve my interpersonal skill and feel more confident Second, I was willing to learn knowledge, skill, new techniques and learn from my mistake during the internship Besides, the internship helped me develop team work skill and problemsolving skill to complete my work It is very important for me to work seriously and be on time Besides, I also learned about problem-solving skill when working with the supervisors Acquired skills employed At school, I learned a lot of techniques about translating general texts, mainly focused on techniques in translating economic, tourism and news texts In translating, the translator can utilize any techniques and must make sure that their work is as closely matched with the source text as possible To complete the assigned tasks, I used some techniques that I cumulated from the gained knowledge as below 15 Table 2: List of translating techniques learning at school Items Techniques In translating from the source language to target language, I could add some words in sentences long as the meaning and the logic were not changed For examples: - Translating from English to Vietnamese: “Kuwait is banning ships from Iran coming into the country’s Shuaiba, Doha and Shuwaikh ports amid fears of the novel coronavirus, Kuwait News Agency (KUNA) reported Sunday.” Word addition “Hãng thông KUNA Kuwait (một quốc gia Tây Á, nằm rìa bắc miền đơng bán đảo Ả Rập) đưa tin hôm Chủ nhật: Kuwait vận cấm tàu từ Iran sang đất nước cảng Shu Shuaiba, Doha Shuwaikh bối cảnh lo ngại tiểu thuyết vi-rút corona.” + “The outbreak in Iran began in the holy city of Qom, according to state media.” “Theo truyền thông Iran, dịch cô-rô-nô bùng phát thành phố Qom – thành phố du lịch tiếng quốc gia này.” When translating, I could omit some words in a sentence as long as the content was not changed or the coherence between paragraphs was kept For examples: -Translating from English to Vietnamese +“At least 33 Turkish sodiers killed in an air attack by Syrian regime, Turkish governor says” “Có 33 binh sĩ Thổ Nhĩ Kỳ thiệt mạng Word công không Syria.” subtraction + “Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu spoke to NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg following the Syrian attack, according to a statement released by the ministry.” “Sau vụ công Syria, Bộ trưởng Bộ Ngoại giao Thổ Nhĩ Kỳ ơng Mevlut Cavusoglu có đàm phán với Tổng thư ký NATO ông Jens Stoltenberg thông qua gọi.” + Long sentence There were a lot of complex sentences in a paragraph To 16 Numbers and Figures make it easier to translate, I did some steps as follow First of all, I read the content of the text in source language and analyzed the grammatical structure of the sentences Then, I listed main ideas in the paragraphs and their relationship in terms of time and logic Next, I marked the word order of the sentence After that, I divided the long sentence into smaller parts based on their main ideas and translate each part Finally, I compared to the original sentences to make sure that the texts in target language were qualified For examples: -Translating from Vietnamese to English: + « Xây dựng phương án bảo đảm cung ứng đầy đủ mặt hàng tiêu dùng thiết yếu, đặc biệt lương thực, thực phẩm, thuốc để đáp ứng nhu cầu người dân; làm tốt việc cung cấp thơng tin hàng hóa, thị trường, tránh tình trạng đổ xơ mua hàng tích trữ; có biện pháp xử lý nghiêm người cố tính đầu cơ, găm hàng, tăng giá » “Plan projects to see to adequate supply of consumer goods, specially foods and medicines to meet people’s need In addition, it is essential to quickly give people market’s information in order to avoid buying goods as a speculation and stockpiling.” Numbers and figures are important aspects to be noted when translating texts business, economy, banking and finance fields To deal with numbers and figures, I had to choose accurate words to show them without changing their meanings For examples: -Translating from English to Vietnamese + Health ministry spokesman Kianush Jahanport told state media that 15 new cases were identified in the last 24 hours Người phát ngôn Bộ Y tế ông Kianush Jahanport cho biết truyền thông quốc gia xác nhận có thêm 15 trường hợp 24 qua + Coronavirus cases in Italy rise to more than 100 Các trường hợp nhiễm coronavirus Ý tăng lên 100 + “Hong Kong confirms five additional coronavirus cases, bringing total to 74” “Xác nhận có thêm trường hợp mắc vi-rút cô-rô-na 17 Word order Proper noun Negative form Hồng Kông, tổng số ca lên đến 74” Word order in English and Vietnamese is not similar totally So, I could flexibly rearrange words in the new sentences in such a way that it was appropriate for the word order in target texts For examples: -Translating from English to Vietnamese: + “US officials in 2018 accused Chinese forces stationed in Djibouti of injuring US pilots with a laser that was fired at a US C-130J aircraft.” “Năm 2018, quan chức Mỹ cáo buộc lực lượng Trung Quốc đóng quân Gi-bu-ti bắn tia la-ze vào máy bay C-130J làm phi công Mỹ bị thương.” Both in English and Vietnamese, proper name is not translated The name of company, organization or event is dependent on the context If it is a well-known international company, I should remain its English name In English, the order of proper nouns is the company, organization or position name and person name respectively whereas in Vietnamese the order should be person name and then name of the company, organization or position For example, -Translating from English to Vietnamese: + “The Lombardy region has at least 89 cases, according to the head of the country’s Civil Protection agency, Angelo Borrelli “ “Ông Angelo Borrelli – người đứng đầu quan bảo vệ quốc gia cho hay: Khu vực Bologna có 89 trường hợp nhiễm.” + Negative expression in English is different from one in Vietnamese In English, we can use negative prefixes such as un –, in -, ir -, il -, im -, mis -, non -, counter – and so on and negative suffix –less to express For example, However, in Vietnamese, there are any affixes that cannot be translated into “không” So, it depends on Vietnamese literature stylist that translator can use suitable words in context during translating 18 Active and passive sentences Idioms Part of speed transformation For example, Active sentences are commonly used in Vietnamese language and passive sentences are commonly used English language When translating English passive sentences into Vietnamese “bị”, “được” or “chịu” are usually omitted and we should use active sentences instead For example, + Bright powders and water balloons are launched in the air by participants of "the Festival of Colors" with the aim of smearing and throwing as much gulal a fine powder offered in several shades as possible on friends and family Tại lễ hội sắc màu, người tham gia tung viên bột bóng nước lên khơng trung, ném bột vào với mục đích vui chơi, chúc cho điều tốt lành thể lòng biết ơn thần linh ban cho họ mùa màng tươi tốt When translating from Vietnamese into English, we should use passive sentences For example, + “Trong đó, Bệnh viện Bệnh Nhiệt đới tỉnh theo dõi, cách ly 21 trường hợp (bao gồm 11 trường hợp nhập viện lấy mẫu chờ kết xét nghiệm)” “In there, 21 cases (including the 11 latest cases taken samples and waiting for test results) have been monitored and isolated at Khanh Hoa Hospital for Tropical Diseases.” An idiom is a group of words whose meaning considered as a unit is different from the meanings of each word of considered separately They specify to one culture and language So, the best way to cope with English idioms into Vietnamese and vice versa is to learn by heart them and then use those meanings in translating work Because of the difference between English and Vietnamese expressions, the word class should be transferred to be appropriate for context of the texts For example, -Translating from English to Vietnamese: + “Schools and a wide range of public events across the northern Italian region of Lombardy will be closed 19 starting Monday in response to the coronavirus outbreak there, regional authorities announced Sunday.” “Hôm Chủ nhật, Chính quyền khu vực Bắc Ý thơng báo: cho trường học đóng cửa hàng loạt kiện công chúng khắp miền bắc nước Ý vùng Lombardy ngưng hoạt động từ thứ Hai để đối phó với bùng phát dịch corona.” + “South Korea extends school holiday for a week” Các trường học Hàn Quốc kéo dài kì nghỉ thêm tuần + There were no further details about the content of the call Thông tin chi tiết nội dung gọi không tiết lộ Besides, translator should avoid translating word-by-word I also applied academic skills including taking notes, paraphrasing, summarizing and synthesizing which helped to supplement my work Problems encountered During the first period, I had difficulties when contacting with the supervisor (Ms Hanh) I asked her for some help when having difficulties via e-mail, I did not receive her feedbacks She had no reply my SMS She just answered my call at the first time At the 5th week, I called her for handing in document and she denied that she was my supervisor because she did not information about supporting for interns But, at first she agreed to be my supervisor and sent her mail if I had difficulties Then, I tried to explain about the problem and remind what she told us before She remembered and she agreed to confirm my internship However, she did not care about our results (including Vi’s result and Thoa’s result) She just saw and kept evaluation forms Till April 12th, 2020 she still did not give them back to us I tried to call her but she did not answer the call It means that I had my internship without supporting To me, it was a big problem because my result was not confirmed and I did not know whether my ability in translating news was good or not This could affect to the quality of the internship and appreciation Lesson learned During the internship, I had a chance to experience real situation, apply my knowledge and techniques to translating I learned from experience and defect to improve skills for work and promote work quality I have got used to working under pressure and making plans to complete assigned tasks on schedule Moreover, I have promoted ability and responsibility; and have had a serious attitude to work I could better in time management, keeping discipline in work and working without cease during work time Furthermore, I recognized that experience is a great teacher and a good starting is a half 20 way of succeed Also always keep in my mind “Never give up” and “Practice makes perfect” when facing difficulties Recommendations 5.1 Recommendations for Khanh Hoa Radio and Television Station After the internship, I have a recommendation as follows Supervisor assignment is very important to interns because supervisors directly instruct, support and appreciate the result of internship Thus, it is really necessary to have a good interaction between the supervisor and the intern during the internship to reach high effect Obviously, the bad interaction (I could not contact with my supervisor in the 1st period of internship) caused many difficulties and disadvantages for the intern to improve and gain skills and experience It affected to the quality and result of the internship Therefore, I hope that it will be clear and specific in assigning supervisors 5.2 Recommendations for the University of Khanh Hoa To aim at enhance the effect in organization and procedure for internship, I would like to give some recommendation as follows First, it is very important to implement completely and drastically the content and quantity of evaluation forms It should be clearly specified and classified standards of evaluation forms and in guideline of internship report in detailed in such a way that it might be sufficient for each field (including Interpreting – Translating, Service and Travel) Second, the general plan of internship, should be clear and specified that the internship would be kept on or stopped due to the break-down relating to the COVID-19 pandemic Third, it seems really necessary to flexibly correct time, and evaluation standards of the internship because of the break-down Forth, regarding to the number of capacity evaluation forms (Phiếu đánh giá lực thực tập chuyên ngành), it should be used only one form in the whole internship period Because it will be difficult for those who encounter difficulties in contacting and working with supervisors if it is compulsory to confirm and sign one form per week CHAPTER 4: CONCLUSION The internship was a good chance for me to interact with translating job, specially translating news I provided me an intensive understanding and practical experience about the process of translating news During the internship, I expanded a lot of new knowledge, skills and worked with experienced translators who were my instructors Thanks to the internship, I could find out my strengths and weaknesses relating to translation, which helped me identify what knowledge, skills and techniques that I need to enhance in the future 21 In addition, the internship provided me plenty of new insight and motivation to adapt work environment and feel more confident for the future job in translating field After the 8-week internship, I complete my internship successfully with the devoted help and wholehearted guidance of my supervisors at the department of News at Khanh Hoa Radio and Television Station Once again, I would like to thank to the University of Khanh Hoa and Khanh Hoa Radio and Television, two supervisors (Ms Hanh and Ms Linh) at the KTV and two supervisors (Ms.Tra and Ms.Thuy) at the UKH Thank you very much! 22 REFERENCE 1.Đài Phát Truyền hình Khánh Hịa (KTV), http://ktv.org.vn/ 2.Newsroom of Khanh Hoa Radio and Television Station: more and more dynamic creative,
