How to translate Session? In a workshop context, I am trying to verblly translate &quot;Session 1&quot;, &quot;Session 2&quot; into Chinese. The first word coming to my mind is 第一课,第二课, but we are trying to avoid the implication that the workshop is a course, it is rather a gathering where the moderator leads people to share their experiences of certain things with each other. 会话一,会话二 are too formal and not very Chinese. Is there any better translation?
My suggestion:
第一節, 第二節 /jie2/...
Cantonese pronunication /jit3/
Literally a part, or a section of a whole.
课 &quot;lesson&quot; - sounds too much like a class, where a (group of) student(s) learn(s) from a teacher.
会话 &quot;dialogue&quot; - is not the same as a workshop session.
