David Smith, economics editor of The Sunday Times, gave the June 13 keynote. He discussed economies in the post-crisis hangover. The United States has had the weakest recovery in the post-war era: “America is not good, Europe is even worse,” said Smith. “The euro will survive, but not necessarily with all its members.” However, as Smith reminded the audience, world trade is actually currently higher than it was pre-crisis. “The global upturn is being very much led by the emerging economies,” which are growing roughly three times as fast as the advanced economies, Smith noted. The June 14 panel discussion keynote also touched on the long tail of language and commerce, even in the emerging world, where some communities have “leapfrogged” the PC and gone straight to mobile.

The promotion and development of high-speed communication systems in the global village have also provoked a sharp increase in the amount of infor- mation exchanged on a daily basis and this requires streamlined trans- lation workflows in order to meet the overwhelming demand for online contents in different languages. This new scenario does affect both, the aca- demic field and the professional practice of translation, as more and more users are getting engaged in the so-called fan translation.

  • Website Localization
    Website localization © Anthony Pym 2010 Revised January 28, 2010. Pre-print text written for the Oxford Companion to Translation Studies. Our thanks to José Ramón Biau, Yoonji Choi and Henry Wang for their input. Abstract: The localization of websites involves translating and adapting content to specific local markets. The process typically involves language technologies, and the degree of adaptation varies according to marketing criteria. Straight translation is thus only part of localization, which creates problems for the role of translators in this high- growth sector. 1. Introduction Cross-cultural communication via websites, and of the elements that comprise the individual screens of each site, is one of the fastest growing areas opened up by the era of electronic communications. The basic standard known as Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) was first proposed in 1991 and has been followed by similar technical conventions, notably Personal Homepage Tools (PHP) from 1995 and Extensible Hypertext Markup Language (XHTML) from 2005, with each technical innovation bringing greater complexity. The translation and localization of websites has thus become a lucrative, dynamic and inter-professional field, often involving marketing, design, and software engineering, as well as linguistic processes. At the same time, the development of the Internet as an interactive medium is giving rise to a series of creative non-professional translation practices. In theory, the translation part of work on websites need not be any different from any other kind of translation, since texts can be extracted from site, rendered in accordance with the required communicative purposes, then reinserted into the site. The localization of websites, however, involves more complex processes, in addition to the normal constraints and goals of translation.

  • Chapter 4 the Internationalized Text and Its Localized Variations
    Chapter 4 The internationalized text and its localized variations: A parallel analysis of blurbs localized from English into Arabic and French Madiha Kassawat Université Sorbonne Nouvelle (ESIT) In an increasingly globalized world, accessibility to digital content has become in- dispensable for people around the world. This accessibility would not be possible without translation which plays an important role in linguistic and cultural media- tion, as well as in marketing. As the majority of products is promoted for and sold on the internet, their web pages are often localized based on the market, including the language and the culture. The required speed in this type of work, its tools and process play a remarkable role which influences the quality of the localized texts. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze these texts, explore the different interpreta- tions of a text in several languages and cultures, and the adaptation level which should convince the consumer to purchase the product. This pilot study is an at- tempt to compare the product descriptions provided in English and localized into Arabic and several French versions. The results show the relationship between the international text and the localized texts on the linguistic and cultural levels. 1 Introduction We are living in a globalized world where translation is a daily-lived practice (Ladmiral 2014). The majority of translated texts nowadays are not literary but utilitarian (Le Disez 2004). At the same time, the digital environment is consid- ered a decisive channel of marketing. It absorbs increasingly between 20 to 30 Madiha Kassawat. 2021. The internationalized text and its localized variations: A parallel anal- ysis of blurbs localized from English into Arabic and French.

  • Why Localize Your WEBSITE Globalization Vs Internationalization & Localization Vs Translation
    Why Localize Your WEBSITE Globalization vs Internationalization & Localization vs Translation As companies look to expand their global audience, they often come across a few terms that may seem synonymous, but in reality have different meanings. Before starting your website localization project, we’d like to define for you the meaning of these terms, which should help you better understand the scope of this content. Globalization (G11N) Globalization is the process of interaction and integration that takes place among nations, cultures, people, governments, and companies. This process occurs through international trade and in recent years has been expedited by advancements in information technology. On the business level, globalization occurs when businesses decide to move their prod- uct and service offerings beyond their domes- tic markets and expand into international markets around the globe. When this happens on a wide scale, international trade trade increases and cultural exchange happens on a global scale. Globalization occurs on a global level, and each nation, culture, government, company, and individual involved in international trade adds to the ongoing movement. Globalization is abbreviated as G11N, which means “G – eleven letters– N”. Page 01 SHARE THIS EBOOK Internationalization (I18N) Internationalization involves the process of designing products and services in order to meet the needs of consumers in specific countries and cultures, resulting in a native product or service experience for the end users or consumers. Internationalization is also known as localization enablement, which occurs during the designing or planning stage of the product / service offering, and is preparatory to localization and translation. Localization (L10N) Localization occurs when an effort is made to adapt products, services, and materials, in a way that will specifically appeal to and meet the needs of a particular culture, region or country.
