Translating
is a good way to practise your knowledge and skills in the foreign language because it helps you to use the structures you have previously relating them to the new words or vocabulary you start looking up. Besides, it might get you to think the way you should say some ideas or thoughts as many manners as possible, but broadly in the best possible one.
It might be very useful when learners need the security of the mother tongue and the opportunity to relate
grammatical structures to mother tongue equivalents (released from wikipedia). Said in other words, it makes pupils practise English structures with their own language by helping them to interpretate and assimilate. :s
