Summary/Abstract: The article presents a review of different attitudes towards the application of pedagogic translation in teaching Polish to foreigners. The moderate attitude towards pedagogic translation, which is based on the assumption that we should adopt all techniques that prove effective in foreign language acquisition, seems to be prevailing in language pedagogy nowadays. Contrastive studies are helpful while creating translation exercises. The article presents principles of the translation techniques, exemplary types of translation exercises and a list of elements of the language system that can be taught by means of translation.
