Abstract: Traditionally, translation has been an element in language instruction and learning processes under Grammar-Translation Method (GTM). This article provides a brief literature review on the recent study covering how pedagogical translation can contribute positively to second language acquisition (SLA). Despite many benefits of pedagogical translation in language learning, several drawbacks and challenges are also provided in this article. This article briefly provides the theoretical perspective, primary debate, and relevant empirical studies to assess how and to what extent translation from L1 to L2 can contribute to the process of language learning.
