Resource Directory Language | Technology | Business RESOURCE ANNUAL DIRECTORY EDITORIAL ANNUAL INDEX 2008 Leveraging your local culture PMs and salespeople: resolving tensions Implementing quality management systems Web globalization and e-business for India 01 Resource Directory RD09.indd 1 1/15/09 1:19:55 PM 02-03 Lemoine-About RD09.indd 2 1/19/09 4:27:21 PM About the MultiLingual 2009 Resource Directory and Editorial Index 2008 Up Front he past year has spurred localization companies and the larger world to re-evaluate the way they do business, which in the long run should ensure that priority is given to diversifying in any market, often resulting in a push towards globalization. Finan- cially, the word is still quite positive in our industry, and we’ve got a healthy resource Tdirectory for 2009 to prove it. Using this resource directory and index, you can easily locate language-industry companies as well as the last year’s content from MultiLingual. This seventh annual publication begins with the Resource Directory (blue tabs), listing companies that develop and use language-related technology along with those providing services in translation, localization, internationalization, website globalization and many other specialties. Next, Tom Edwards explains how to tap into already-available cultural savvy at your company. Also included is advice from Tina Cargile and Erin Vang on managing localization projects and from Betsy Rodriguez on how to streamline any company’s process by creating a quality assurance system. Martin Spethman and Nitish Singh give an overview of India’s e-busi- ness, a rapidly expanding internet market that some predict will have as many as 80 million users by 2010. Index pages (gold tabs) include authors, titles and topics from MultiLingual’s 2008 issues arranged in a single alphabet. This is followed by a list of acronyms and abbreviations used in our pages during the year; a glossary of language-industry terminology; and an index of the advertisers appearing in this directory. This special issue is also available at www.multilingual.com/resourceDirectory for your quick reference and for download. Subscribers can access a version with live links for easy click-through as part of our digital edition. We hope you find this special issue helpful and useful throughout the coming year.

The localization industry has never been affected quite the same way as many other sectors, but now that A other sectors begin to tentatively look up the economic curve towards prosperity, we may relax just a bit more also. This eighth annual resource directory and index allows industry professionals and those wanting to expand business access to language-industry companies around the globe. Following tradition, the 2010 Resource Directory (blue tabs) begins this issue, listing compa- nies providing services in a variety of specialties and formats: from language-related technol- ogy to recruitment; from locale-specifi c localization to educational resources; from interpreting to marketing. Next come the editorial pages (red tabs) on timeless localization practice. Henk Boxma enumerates the real costs of quality software translations, and Kevin Fountoukidis offers tips on people-centric company management. The Editorial Index 2009 (gold tabs) provides a helpful reference for MultiLingual issues 101- 108, by author, title, topic and so on, all arranged alphabetically. Then there’s a list of acronyms and abbreviations used throughout the magazine, a glossary of terms, and our list of advertisers for this issue.

  • 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.

Krisztina Zimányi Guanajuato, Gto, México Septiembre 2017 AGRADECIMIENTOS Por aquella pequeña niña a la que una vez le dijeron que no era capaz de ser lo que quería ser, por aquella pequeña yo que una vez creyó que podía alcanzar las estrellas y le fueron arrebatadas las raíces de sus sueños. Por todas las malas experiencias y los fracasos que estaban destinados a ocurrir para lograr cumplir una de mis más grandes metas en la vida. Por todo el miedo, la desconfianza, la baja autoestima y todas las sentencias ajenas de imposibilidad. Pero, sobre todo, por aquella niña que creció para convertirse en adulta y superó los obstáculos. Gracias a esos magníficos seres que estuvieron ahí para apoyarme; gracias a mis padres quienes me sostuvieron cada vez que mi determinación flaqueaba, gracias a mi hermana que siempre me proveía con una dosis de realidad, gracias a mis profesores que siempre me dieron el impulso que necesitaba para continuar e incluso gracias a mi mascota que me consolaba cuando yo pensaba que no lo iba a lograr.
