Enjeux de l’apprentissage de la terminologie de l’Union européenne dans une deuxième langue étrangère pour étudiants anglophones
Acquiring the Terminology Specific to the European Union by Anglophone Students for Their Second Foreign Language

Summary/Abstract: The author develops the position that proficiency in a second foreign language is an "added value" in multilingual Europe today, especially for young people preparing for a career in European affairs. The EU Terminology programme as a part of the curriculum at the American University in Bulgaria aims to provide an adequate response to the requirements of effective second foreign language learning by English-speaking students, already familiarized with political, economic, legal and social European matters. The action-oriented approach adopted within the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages appears to be particularly appropriate for acquiring this specialized vocabulary.
