NAATI CCL Language

NAATI CCL Test is the test of your native language translation and interpretation ability at a community level. You need to choose the LOTEs from available NAATI CCL Language and start translating and interpreting.

So, the question may arise how do translation and interpretation work?

Well, translation means converting the language from one to the other which can be in written format. So basically for the NAATI CCL test, you will be giving an interpretation test.

And interpretation means how you present the information you’ve understood from hearing or reading something, in this test, by hearing, and of course, without deviating from the actual meaning.

What is LOTE?

At this point, the word LOTE may be bothering you a bit if you are new to the NAATI CCL world. And if you’re well aware of it, then a gentle reminder won’t harm you.

The term LOTE is an acronym, not a word, and no, I was not shouting at you. It stands for Language Other Than English.

It makes sense now, doesn’t it? And it seems to need no further explanation either.

But let me break it down for you.

NAATI has a predefined list of languages available that you can appear in the NAATI CCL Test for. And these are Languages Other Than English, cause this test is to check how well a person with a different mother tongue can understand the conversations in Australian society, which is in English.

Choosing the right LOTE for your NAATI CCL Test

Are you in a dilemma about choosing the right LOTE from the NAATI CCL languages?

Is being multilingual only making you more confused?

Of course, it’s a privilege to have multiple options to choose from as your LOTE, but when you feel like a jack of all trades, it can only put unnecessary pressure on you.

What you should do is evaluate your abilities at the NAATI CCL languages, whether it’s speaking or reading. You must be better at one than the other, right?

So, find out which language out of the languages available seems more familiar to you and how well you are in it. One way to do this is by reading articles, newspapers, or any form of writings in that language and interpreting it in English, and just check your confidence and fluency with the word interpretation.

For example, if you’re confused about choosing between Hindi and Punjabi, what you can do is go through the CCL Punjabi material and CCL Hindi material, and read the sample dialogues out loud for both the NAATI CCL languages. Then check if you can translate accurately.

Look at the sample NAATI CCL vocabulary and decide which one you’d be better at. The most important thing is being aware of your understanding and capabilities of the languages.

The next thing that you can do is, take the sample test and judge yourself on your speaking/translating ability. Don’t be too harsh of a critic, though.

It would be great if you can get your hands on the NAATI sample dialogues and proceed to perform as in the actual test. Avail of our NAATI test samples.

Play the dialogue, & pause it at the end of each segment, and then translate it into the respective NAATI CCL language.

You can record yourself so that you can evaluate yourself later, cause while you’re giving the test, even if it’s a NAATI exam sample, you may be under the pressure of doing things the right way.
