Marking principles and mark scheme
Section A: mark scheme, (translation into Gujarati)
This task is a points-based mark scheme in which 1 mark is given for each correct
individual section of language. A correct translation is provided in a grid which also
outlines the alternative translations that will be accepted or the translations to be
rejected. Marking principles for error tolerance with examples are given directly
above the grid.
Section A: marking principles.
Spelling: non-grammatical misspelling is tolerated, for example શેરલી rather than
શેરડી as long as they are not ambiguous (for example શેરદી rather then શેરડી) or in
the wrong language.
Verb endings must be correct and will not be classed as spelling errors.
Adjective endings must be correct and will not be classed as spelling errors.
Accept any appropriate alternatives that do not already appear in the ‘acceptable
answers’ column.
