Additional/Supplememtary Texts...Must they be in English? (1 Viewer)

[vosang]

Hey, I was just wondering if say for example in the area of study for journeys that we had to get ourselves another text to study and respond to....does the text have to be in english language? I know that a text could be anything e.g song, film blah blah but i know of a really good text that relates to journey really well but its not in English.

Great if i could get an answer.
Thanks.

One of my aditional texts was Amelie and that is a french film.

So they don't have to.

But if it is a novel and piece of writing you would have to use a text in english because you are assessing their use of the english language as opposed to more universal topics such as their use of camera work in a film etc

Answers not written in English, except where required or permitted by the
question paper, will have zero marks awarded.

So quoting something a text in its original language isn't a good idea.
