Abstract
One of the few areas of language teaching in which translation is still widely used is with advanced learners at tertiary level.

It is suggested that the communicative basis for the use of translation as a language teaching technique is derived from the communicative nature of translation as a professional activity involving the meaning-centred and receptor-oriented conveyance of messages across linguistic and cultural boundaries.
