Özet:

This experimental research presents the problems and their underlying reasons in sight translation from one’s native language (Turkish) into a foreign language (English). The study analyzes the performances of nine sophomore students, as regards faithfulness to meaning and the purpose of the source message, proper use of expression, grammar and syntax, background knowledge about the specified context and problem solving skills. Results reveal that to produce high-quality translations, students’ awareness and internalization of cognitive skills and constructive control of perceptions and motivations is necessarily significant.
