摘要:AbstractWriting paragraphs in a foreign language is a very complex exercise, which implies not only knowledge from various fields, but also written expression abilities, as well as intellectual qualities. This exercise has many advantages: it allows the teacher and/or the students to treat all kinds of subjects, forces the students to enrich their cultural background, to improve their written expression abilities, to treat the subject in a rational way in order to obtain a logical paragraph. This work aims to present the advantages this exercise has in the professional development of future translators (1styear students studying Romanian-French/French-Romanian translation), as well as the methods they are taught to use in order to obtain coherent and cohesive paragraphs.
