This study explores the significance of translation comments as an active practice of literacy act among the advantages of applying peer feedback in a translation classroom. Pym mentioned that translation is a process of generation and selection, a problem-solving process(2003), meaning it has to solve the problems between two languages occurring during the translation. In order to translate, translators have to study and understand the source text, and they use what they have learned or known in the process of translating the source text into a target language and search for the information they do not know and apply their newly acquired knowledge for translation. Then all translation acts are literacy acts as literacy consist of learning and understanding and writing. In particular, sense-to-sense translation can be read as an active literacy act considering that a translator has to understand the entire context and finds a deep meaning by putting all related information together and translating the text not partially but sythetically. Comments on translation are more active literacy acts. Comments consist of recognizing and understanding problems that appear in the translated texts, and then finding the cause of the problem and solving them. Comments on translation are to find ways to solve problems through bilingual learning, cultures, and specific topics on the source text and deciding the level of target readers, editing, or writing through which commenters enhance their self-learning skills. Peer feedback in the translation class is an act of giving comments by fellow students to the other students’ translated texts, and when this method of peer feedback is applied, students actively engage in literacy in the process of translating and commenting. Therefore, comments can be seen as critical literacy because the commenters in the translation class read both source texts and target texts, find differences between two texts, evaluate them, edit translated texts and then express their opinions. While sense-to-sense translation is the ability to synthesize situations in translation, comments on translation contribute to developing critical capability in terms of realizing critical literacy. From the point of view of problem-solving, the act of translating is a process of problem-solving, and the act of commenting becomes a more active act of problem-solving. Therefore, creative problem-solving solutions can come out through this learning. Today's expanded concept of literacy is involved in various purposes of life. Given that the ultimate goal of all literacy acts is the practice in society, comments in the translation class are active actions that students practice what they have learned.
