Exploring the Boundaries of Translation: An undergraduate competition

Each spring, undergraduates across campus are invited to submit their entries for words that test the boundaries of translation. The contest, judged by BLC and Found in Translation panelists, encourages reflection on the ability of language to capture culturally specific meanings and resonances, pushing the boundaries of translatability.
