  • Introducing SDL Trados to Beginning Translators
    Indonesian Journal of English Language Studies Vol. 2, Number 1, February 2016 Introducing SDL Trados to Beginning Translators Lemmuela Alvita Kurniawati, Dian Titi Rahajeng, Barlian Kristanto, and Fidelis Chosa Kastuhandani ABSTRACT Over years, translators have been incorporating new advances in technology into their work. A number of attempts in developing ideal translator’s workstations using technology have been made, one of such stations is a Computer-Aided Translation (CAT) tool. CAT tools facilitate translators to increase their productivity and efficiency by providing them with some utilities, such as a Translation Memory and an Alignment Tool to support their translation works. This article highlights the usefulness of SDL Trados 2014, as one of the most widely used paid CAT tools, in translating the texts more effectively and in a timely manner. Further, it describes the basic steps in using SDL Trados and exemplifies SDL Trados 2014 translation results. A sample text was translated from Indonesian to English using both Across (a free CAT tool) and SDL Trados (a paid CAT tool). Eventually, the results of translating using both CAT tools appear to prove that SDL Trados helps the translators to translate more consistently, accurately, effectively and in a timely-manner. Keywords: CAT tools, SDL Trados, Across. INTRODUCTION used by translators to automate part of the The technological development affects translation process. CAT tools are helpful the new trends in the field of translation. to translators because they can speed up Technology plays the vital role for the translation process through the help of translators nowadays.

  • The FISKMÖ Project: Resources and Tools for Finnish-Swedish Machine

The goal of the project is the compilation of a massive parallel corpus out of translated material collected from web sources, public and private organisations and language service providers in Finland with its two official languages. The project also aims at the development of open and freely accessible translation services for those two languages for the general purpose and for domain-specific use. We have released new data sets with over 3 million translation units, a benchmark test set for MT development, pre-trained neural MT models with high coverage and competitive performance and a self-contained MT plugin for a popular CAT tool. The latter enables offline translation without dependencies on external services making it possible to work with highly sensitive data without compromising security concerns. Keywords: parallel corpora, machine translation 1. Introduction and for the optimisation of domain-specific translation en- gines.
