Summary/Abstract: This paper intends to demonstrate that translation combines both form and meaning, both proficiency and performance. Due to this aspect, we can say that translation is an ideal exercise in a language teaching environment, supporting, as a consequence, the communicative method to compensate for its failure to concentrate on form, despite the fact that it remains a communicative activity by definition. It will also be determined that engineering students use translation so as to be able to manage the new information in technical field while also considering that it simplifies their learning.
