  • Introducing a Cat Tool to Translate: Wordfast
    Indonesian Journal of English Language Studies Vol. 2, Number 1, February 2016 Introducing a Cat Tool to Translate: Wordfast Fika Apriliana, Ardiyarso Kurniawan, Sandy Ferianda, and Fidelis Chosa Kastuhandani ABSTRACT This article aims at introducing CAT tools to those prospective translators who are familiar with with the tools for the first time. Some of the CAT tools must be paid for while some others are free. This article is to inform the readers about the list of free and paid CAT tools, advantages and disadvantages of those tools. One does not need special training for using a free CAT tool while using the paid CAT tools, one needs some special preparation. This article is going to focus more on Wordfast Pro as the second most widely used CAT tools after SDLTrados. Wordfast Pro is a paid software the functioning of which is based on the creation of a Translation Memory which facilitates and speeds up the translator's work. This article is going to briefly explain the advantages of Wordfast Pro and the steps of using it. The translation example is presented to reveal the different translation results of Wordfast Pro as a paid CAT tool and OmegaT as a free CAT tool. Therefore, the article will facilitate those who intend to know more about Wordfast Pro and start using it. Keywords: CAT tools, Wordfast Pro, OmegaT INTRODUCTION When using CAT tools, it is Computerized translation has attracted immediately clear which parts of the text the attention of a large number of people must be translated; the unchanging who work directly or indirectly on portions are transferred accurately and translational issues such as professional directly; the time savings due to repeating translators, teachers, linguists, researchers expressions is huge; and expressions are and future translators.

  • Omegat 2.1 Manual De Usuario
    Acerca de OmegaT ― OmegaT 2.1 Manual de Usuario Acerca de OmegaT OmegaT es una herramienta multiplataforma para la Traducción Asistida por Ordenador, es software libre y cuenta con los siguientes atractivos: Memoria de traducción OmegaT recuerda sus traducciones en una memoria de traducción. Al mismo tiempo, puede utilizar referencias a memorias de traducción anteriores. Las memorias de traducción pueden ser muy útiles para una traducción con una variedad de repeticiones o segmentos de texto razonablemente similares. OmegaT utiliza memorias de traducción para recordar sus traducciones anteriores y sugerirle la traducción más probable para el texto en que está trabajando. Las memorias de traducción pueden ser muy útiles cuando necesita actualizar un documento, que ya ha sido traducido. Sin modificación se seguirá traduciendo y las oraciones actualizadas se muestran con una versión anterior de la misma sentencia que la traducción más probable. Las modificaciones al documento original, por lo tanto, serán tratadas con mayor facilidad. Si está utilizando memorias de traducción creadas previamente, por ejemplo, que le ha asignado la agencia de traducción o su cliente, OmegaT será capaz de utilizarlas como memorias de referencia. OmegaT utiliza el formato de archivo TMX estándar para almacenar y acceder a las memorias de traducción, lo cual garantiza que usted puede intercambiar su material con otras aplicaciones de traducción CAT, que soporten este formato de archivo. Gestión de terminología La gestión de la terminología es importante para la consistencia de la traducción. OmegaT utiliza glosarios que contienen la traducción de palabras sueltas o pequeñas frases, una especie de diccionario bilingüe simplificado para un dominio específico.

  • Translate's Localization Guide
    Translate’s Localization Guide Release 0.9.0 Translate Jun 26, 2020 Contents 1 Localisation Guide 1 2 Glossary 191 3 Language Information 195 i ii CHAPTER 1 Localisation Guide The general aim of this document is not to replace other well written works but to draw them together. So for instance the section on projects contains information that should help you get started and point you to the documents that are often hard to find. The section of translation should provide a general enough overview of common mistakes and pitfalls. We have found the localisation community very fragmented and hope that through this document we can bring people together and unify information that is out there but in many many different places. The one section that we feel is unique is the guide to developers – they make assumptions about localisation without fully understanding the implications, we complain but honestly there is not one place that can help give a developer and overview of what is needed from them, we hope that the developer section goes a long way to solving that issue. 1.1 Purpose The purpose of this document is to provide one reference for localisers. You will find lots of information on localising and packaging on the web but not a single resource that can guide you. Most of the information is also domain specific ie it addresses KDE, Mozilla, etc. We hope that this is more general. This document also goes beyond the technical aspects of localisation which seems to be the domain of other lo- calisation documents.

  • Reciprocal Enrichment Between Basque Wikipedia and Machine Translation
    Reciprocal Enrichment Between Basque Wikipedia and Machine Translation Inaki˜ Alegria, Unai Cabezon, Unai Fernandez de Betono,˜ Gorka Labaka, Aingeru Mayor, Kepa Sarasola and Arkaitz Zubiaga Abstract In this chapter, we define a collaboration framework that enables Wikipe- dia editors to generate new articles while they help development of Machine Trans- lation (MT) systems by providing post-edition logs. This collaboration framework was tested with editors of Basque Wikipedia. Their post-editing of Computer Sci- ence articles has been used to improve the output of a Spanish to Basque MT system called Matxin. For the collaboration between editors and researchers, we selected a set of 100 articles from the Spanish Wikipedia. These articles would then be used as the source texts to be translated into Basque using the MT engine. A group of volunteers from Basque Wikipedia reviewed and corrected the raw MT translations. This collaboration ultimately produced two main benefits: (i) the change logs that would potentially help improve the MT engine by using an automated statistical post-editing system , and (ii) the growth of Basque Wikipedia. The results show that this process can improve the accuracy of an Rule Based MT (RBMT) system in nearly 10% benefiting from the post-edition of 50,000 words in the Computer Inaki˜ Alegria Ixa Group, University of the Basque Country UPV/EHU, e-mail: [email protected] Unai Cabezon Ixa Group, University of the Basque Country, e-mail: [email protected] Unai Fernandez de Betono˜ Basque Wikipedia and University of the Basque Country, e-mail: [email protected] Gorka Labaka Ixa Group, University of the Basque Country, e-mail: [email protected] Aingeru Mayor Ixa Group, University of the Basque Country, e-mail: [email protected] Kepa Sarasola Ixa Group, University of the Basque CountryU, e-mail: [email protected] Arkaitz Zubiaga Basque Wikipedia and Queens College, CUNY, CS Department, Blender Lab, New York, e-mail: [email protected] 1 2 Alegria et al.
