The translation process is divided here into two 'blocks': the Adhoc-block includes automatic processing, e.g. automatic 1:1 equivalents and translational experience (procedural knowledge), while the Rest-block includes items requiring conscious processing, e.g. linguistic problems as well as considerations regarding ST author or TT recipients. The model is illustrated by TAP data from five subjects: two novice students, two advanced students, and one professional translator. Didactic implications are discussed with regard to both translator training and FL teaching.
