111 Fourth Artifact

[Oliver Cho]

A learning task I have sucessfully completed is I have sucessfully transalted a full portugese interview. The interview was about life in china for a Brazilain soccer player known as Oscar. He described his current situation in China and the level of soccer. He felt as though Chinese soccer will never be able to reach the level of comptetivness that the soccer in England is currently at. He feels that English soccer, or the Premier league will always have the most competition. He does feel that there is China, but since the players don't start from early age their talents aren't as polished as those from other parts of the world. While translating his interview I found that Oscar used alot of slang that I was unfamiliar with, so I had to ask my language partner about it. Also Oscar spoke really fast so he often would merge two words together.
