Abstract/Résumé
En dépit d’opinions divergentes sur l’opportunité de l’enseignement de l’interprétation pour améliorer le niveau de maîtrise d’une langue, il existe une demande de formation de ce type dans le cadre des études de licence. Le présent article définit les conditions et limitations de cet enseignement au sein d’un tel cursus. En outre, il passe en revue différentes théories pertinentes relatives à l’acquisition des langues secondes dans la perspective de leur application à l’enseignement de l’interprétation dans le contexte évoqué. Enfin, il formule des propositions pour la mise en place de programmes de cours d’interprétation destinés aux étudiants préparant une licence.
