Abstract
Since Kiraly pointed out the beneficial role of collaboration in translation training, increasingly more attention has been paid to the potential benefits of peer collaboration. While Wang and Han studied translation trainees' explicit perceptions of any benefits resulting from peer feedback, the present contribution first investigates the role of translator's implicit perceptions of reviewer expertise in the effectiveness of a peer comment in a case study. It then inquires into the number and type of peer feedback comments in relation to whether the target language that is to be reviewed is the reviewer's L1 or L2. Here, two data sets are hypothesized to yield similar results: (1) a set of native and non-native reviewer comments and (2) the comments written by translators in a direct translation situation and in an inverse translation situation. Findings were surprising, however, and professional, methodological, and theoretical research implications for translation and revision competence models are suggested.
