Description:

For this swap, you need to choose a newspaper article from your national or regional newspaper and translate it into English.

The article should not be very long - about 250 words is enough, but of course, you can always send longer if you feel like it. However, be careful to choose a news article, not magazine stuff.

Clip the article from the newspaper, print out your translation, put it in an envelope and send it to your partner. If you want, you can add a commentary about your translation - pointing out some tricky words and phrases, providing explanation etc.

Happy swapping! :)

Sounds like a challenge... But what if you live in a country the national language is English (like New Zealand)...

@chocosamurai - right, that might be tricky... You can try to find an online article in one of your second languages then and translate that into English? :)
