  • Teaching Video Game Translation: First Steps, Systems and Hands-On Experience Ensinando Tradução De Videogame: Primeiros Passos, Sistemas E Experiência Prática
    http://periodicos.letras.ufmg.br/index.php/textolivre Belo Horizonte, v. 11, n. 1, p. 103-120, jan.-abr. 2018 – ISSN 1983-3652 DOI: 10.17851/1983-3652.11.1.103-120 TEACHING VIDEO GAME TRANSLATION: FIRST STEPS, SYSTEMS AND HANDS-ON EXPERIENCE ENSINANDO TRADUÇÃO DE VIDEOGAME: PRIMEIROS PASSOS, SISTEMAS E EXPERIÊNCIA PRÁTICA Marileide Dias Esqueda Universidade Federal de Uberlândia [email protected] Érika Nogueira de Andrade Stupiello Universidade Estadual Paulista “Júlio de Mesquista Filho” [email protected] ABSTRACT: Despite the significant growth of the game localization industry in the past years, translation undergraduate curricula in Brazil still lacks formal training in game localization, often leaving novice translators no alternative but to search for the required skills informally in game translation communities. Designing a video game localization course in translation undergraduate programs in public universities is a complex task in today’s reality, particularly due to limited access to free and authentic materials. This paper describes a game localization teaching experience at the undergraduate level with special focus on how to handle the linguistic assets of the online race game SuperTuxKart, while trying to shed some light on potential translation requirements of entertainment software and its incorporation into translation programs. KEYWORDS: video game localization; video game translation; translator training; translation undergraduate program; SuperTuxKart. RESUMO: A despeito do significativo crescimento da indústria de localização de games nos últimos anos, os currículos dos cursos de graduação em tradução ainda carecem de formação específica na localização de games, geralmente não oferecendo ao tradutor em formação alternativas outras senão a de adquirir informalmente, ou em comunidades on- line de gamers, os conhecimentos sobre a tradução desse tipo de material.

  • 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.

They can help us in so many ways, yet we are often frustrated when they don't work the way we want them to. We are frequently in interaction with technology where we change the way they work, and they change the way we work. A lot of this change is good, but we are not always aware how it changes us. A lot of technologies we work with often, such as software, web sites and cell phones, contain text which is in some language or another. Today, it is often in one of the major languages of the world, such as English or French. Those of us who understand the language of the technology are able to use it, while other people might be entirely locked out, or unable to fully enjoy the benefits that the technology brings.
