  • Webinar: Translation Memory and Machine Translation
    Legal Services National Technology Assistance Project www.lsntap.org Webinar: Translation Memory and Machine Translation Jillian Theil, Claudia Johnson, Diana Glick, Leland Sampson, Maria Mindlin and Sart Rowe Machine Translation The Perils of Google Translate Typically Google translate tool will give you broken language translations. You might be able to tell what the translation is saying but it will be grammatically incorrect and use wrong words. The key when creating something like a sign, is to use more visuals and less words. Arrow signs, people icons, Dollar signs etc. Check for existing resources - look for signs that already exist and you can see what they are doing. Consider using visuals for wayfinding - arrows, etc Conduct Plain language review and editing Ensure your signage is readable (font etc) Back translation is running a translation back into english to ensure it is correct. Case Study: Using chinese as an example: the word for computer mouse is a different word than the animal mouse - so google translate will translate a sentence about this wrong. If possible obtain a legal review of the translation from an attorney / translator. Is it Ever OK to use Google Translate? It’s ok for informal communications, for general understanding or when you are in a complete bind and have no other options. Translation Workflow for Lingotek and People’s Law Library 1. Volunteer contacts them, and they qualify that volunteer 2. The volunteer selects an article to translate and that article is uploaded to lingotek 3. The volunteer performs the actual translation and then the article is assigned to a volunteer reviewer who is a licensed attorney 4.

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.

  • Comunicado 23 Técnico
    Comunicado 23 ISSN 1415-2118 Abril, 2007 Técnico Campinas, SP Armazenagem e transporte de arquivos extensos André Luiz dos Santos Furtado Fernando Antônio de Pádua Paim Resumo O crescimento no volume de informações transportadas por um mesmo indivíduo ou por uma equipe é uma tendência mundial e a cada dia somos confrontados com mídias de maior capacidade de armazenamento de dados. O objetivo desse comunicado é explorar algumas possibilidades destinadas a permitir a divisão e o transporte de arquivos de grande volume. Neste comunicado, tutoriais para o Winrar, 7-zip, ALZip, programas destinados a compactação de arquivos, são apresentados. É descrita a utilização do Hjsplit, software livre, que permite a divisão de arquivos. Adicionalmente, são apresentados dois sites, o rapidshare e o mediafire, destinados ao compartilhamento e à hospedagem de arquivos. 1. Introdução O crescimento no volume de informações transportadas por um mesmo indivíduo ou por uma equipe é uma tendência mundial. No início da década de 90, mesmo nos países desenvolvidos, um computador com capacidade de armazenamento de 12 GB era inovador. As fitas magnéticas foram substituídas a partir do anos 50, quando a IBM lançou o primogenitor dos atuais discos rígidos, o RAMAC Computer, com a capacidade de 5 MB, pesando aproximadamente uma tonelada (ESTADO DE SÃO PAULO, 2006; PCWORLD, 2006) (Figs. 1 e 2). Figura 1 - Transporte do disco rígido do RAMAC Computer criado pela IBM em 1956, com a capacidade de 5 MB. 2 Figura 2 - Sala de operação do RAMAC Computer. Após três décadas, os primeiros computadores pessoais possuíam discos rígidos com capacidade significativamente superior ao RAMAC, algo em torno de 10 MB, consumiam menos energia, custavam menos e, obviamente, tinham uma massa que não alcançava 100 quilogramas.
