Målssprog

Målssprog, also known as target language, is a concept used in language learning and translation studies to refer to the language that the learner or translator aims to acquire or use. It is the language that one is working towards mastering or communicating in. In the context of language learning, the målssprog is the language that the student is studying and ultimately aims to speak, read, write, and understand. For translators, the målssprog is the language into which they are translating texts. The choice of målssprog can depend on various factors, including the learner's or translator's personal interests, career goals, or the demands of a specific educational or professional context. Effective learning or translation often requires a solid understanding of the målssprog's grammar, vocabulary, and cultural nuances. Additionally, knowledge of the målssprog's script and pronunciation is crucial for spoken communication.
