Abstract

Translingualism is essential to observe the ways that writer choose while writing and the reasons writers use the language in a certain way. Having a translingual perspective could give writing instructors an opportunity to adopt a more comprehensive pedagogy to appreciate linguistic diversity in writing. It is essential to encourage students to cross their boundaries to provide them various opportunities in writing. The form of “correct” is reevaluated by translingualism, as it takes different aspects into account while writing and the purpose is to help students find their own voice in academic writing.
