Rationale for IT Applications to Translation
“A computer is a device that can be used to magnify human productivity. Properly used, it does not dehumanize by imposing its own Orwellian stamp on the products of human spirit ……….
………..Translation is a fine and exacting art, but there is much about it that is mechanical and routine, if this were given over to a machine, the productivity of the translator would not only be magnified but this work would become more rewarding, more exciting, more human.”
Martin Kay (1987)

COURSE OVERVIEW - GRADING
This is a hands-on courseYou will be graded on the basis of the
results of your practical assignments:Creating TMs from parallel texts (fiction and
non-fiction e.g. a book and a manual) – in a way, you will be also creating a parallel corpus
Translating two short passages (fiction and non-fiction) using your newly created TMs

IT AND TRANSLATIONESSENTIALS AND MORE ABOUT THE COURSE
![Page 15: IT AND TRANSLATION](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56812ea7550346895d944292/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
TYPES OF COMPUTER AIDES Computer aides / tools that are relevant to
translators can be roughly classified into three groups: Basic input and editing tools Reference tools Productivity tools
![Page 16: IT AND TRANSLATION](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56812ea7550346895d944292/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
CAT vs MT As soon as you start using computer software
in the process of translating, you are entering the realm of COMPUTER-AIDED TRANSLATION, or CAT in short.
In other words, CAT is a form of translation wherein a human translator translates texts using computer software designed to support and facilitate the translation process.
![Page 17: IT AND TRANSLATION](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56812ea7550346895d944292/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
CAT vs MT (continued) The problem is that COMPUTER-AIDED
TRANSLATION, is sometimes also called COMPUTER-ASSISTED TRANSLATION, MACHINE-AIDED TRANSLATION or MACHINE-ASSISTED TRANSLATION.
Due to the latter two terms, CAT is sometimes confused with MACHINE TRANSLATION, or MT in short.
![Page 18: IT AND TRANSLATION](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56812ea7550346895d944292/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
CAT vs MT (continued) Although these two concepts are related and
similar in some aspects, CAT and MT denote two diametrically different processes: In CAT, the computer program merely supports
the translator, so the translator translates the text himself/herself, making all the essential decisions involved.
In MT, the translator supports the machine, that is to say: the computer (i.e. program) translates the text, which is then edited by the translator, or, in most cases, not edited at all.
![Page 19: IT AND TRANSLATION](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56812ea7550346895d944292/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

CAT – its scope CAT is traditionally associated with large-
scale / corporate translations: manuals and technical documentation software localization
“Typewriter-assisted” (i.e. traditional) translation is usually associated with small-scale / individual translations (done by freelancers): fiction books, scientific papers, etc.
![Page 21: IT AND TRANSLATION](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56812ea7550346895d944292/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
CAT – its scope (continued) This is notion of CAT being restricted to
corporate translation projects dates back to the 90s and is based exclusively on financial criteria: during the early and mid 90s a combination of a
high-end computer and a high-end CAT tool cost as much as a new car
from their very beginnings CAT tools were designed to be capable of handling both big- and small-scale projects, but initially no freelance translator could afford them
![Page 22: IT AND TRANSLATION](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56812ea7550346895d944292/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
CAT – its scope (continued) Even for a freelance translator, CAT route is
nowadays the only possibility if one wants to provide high-quality, 100% terminologically consistent and efficiently produced translations.
A testimony to that is the industry-standard TM program Trados: Trados Freelance edition has been the company’s best-selling TM program for a number of years.
![Page 23: IT AND TRANSLATION](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56812ea7550346895d944292/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
CAT tools – a bit about their history CAT tools were developed after (very)
disappointing initial experiments with MT tools.
So, in order to give you a proper overview of how we got where we are now, we have to start with the history of MT tools
![Page 24: IT AND TRANSLATION](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56812ea7550346895d944292/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
MT History – how we switched to CAT
MT research began in 1950’s – Warren Weaver’s 1949 Memo: “When I look at an article in Russian, I say: This is
really written in English, but it has been coded in some strange symbols. I will now proceed to decode.”
(in Locke and Booth 1955:18)
![Page 25: IT AND TRANSLATION](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56812ea7550346895d944292/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
MT History – how we switched to CAT
Initially based on some misconception about human translation:knowledge of two language systems sufficesit is merely a matter of looking up dictionariesit is easy to define “a good translation”there is only one correct translation possible
![Page 26: IT AND TRANSLATION](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56812ea7550346895d944292/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
MT history milestones: pre-ALPAC
1954: Georgetown system demo successful translation of 49 Russian sentences into English
1955-1966: $50m spent in 20 research centres in USA 1966: Automatic Language Processing Advisory Committee (ALPAC) Report concludes:
”...MT is slower, less accurate and twice as expensive as Human Translation...”“...there is no prospect of useful MT either immediately or in the future...”
MT History – how we switched to CAT

Technological factors specifically: prevalence of PC with improved processing power
Translation market factors official bilingualism/multilingualism create institutional
needs globalisation creates huge commercial needs
Advances in computational linguistics More realistic user expectations Internet creates casual access to multilingual information
Renewed interest in MT in late 80s and early 90s:

However, translations produced by MT were still not reliable and accurate enough for large-scale commercial applications.
So, it became evident that the human translator cannot be eliminated and replaced by computers.
Actually, it became obvious that computers programs should be used as TOOLS which only HELP the translator.

WHAT WE WANT TO TEACH YOU HERE?
TWO PRACTICAL EXAMPLES OF COMMON TRANSLATION PROBLEMS
![Page 36: IT AND TRANSLATION](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56812ea7550346895d944292/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

IMPORTANT THINGS TO NOTE:• (quite obvious) the book has an index = YOU (i.e. the translator) are supposed to make it in the translated version of the book
• a vast index = a lot of terminology
• some index terms appear on several pages that are not necessarily in the same chapter (e.g. pg. 36, pg. 92 and pg. 255) = a very serious problem for the consistency of you translation

General principles of working with CAT tools The main goals are EFFICIENCY and
CONSISTENCY CAT tools = TM tools (in this case only) The basic idea is fairly simple:
Documents, especially technical ones, contain a large amount of content that is similar or identical to information already contained in earlier versions or similar documents that have been translated before.
that applies to the source editing language (SL) as well as the target translation languages (TL).
![Page 44: IT AND TRANSLATION](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56812ea7550346895d944292/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
General principles of working with CAT tools
So, wouldn’t it be great to re-use previously translated content as valuable reference material for new translations as well so as to obtain consistency of terminology and phrasing?
That is exactly what CAT tools do! CAT tools make it possible for translators to work
only on content that is being created for the first time. Existing text and text similar to existing text is taken from the available. reference translations (i.e. from TM= translation memory).
![Page 45: IT AND TRANSLATION](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56812ea7550346895d944292/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)

A DREAM COME TRUE?
NOT REALLY
TO ENJOY ALL THE BENEFITS OF CAT TOOLS FIRST YOU HAVE TO CREATE A TM AND A TERMINOLOGY DATABASE:•either from your old translations•or from new translations (i.e. creating a TM from scratch)
THAT IS WHERE OTHER CAT TOOLS (i.e. NON-TM CAT tools) STEP IN TO SAVE THE DAY!!!
![Page 48: IT AND TRANSLATION](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56812ea7550346895d944292/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
REUSING YOU OLD TRANSLATIONS
The best way to make a TM: reliable source (YOU did the translation) readily available (stored on you PC)

A BRIEF DIGRESSION The term LOCALIZATION has often
popped up in previous slides What is LOCALIZATION?
![Page 50: IT AND TRANSLATION](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56812ea7550346895d944292/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
WHAT IS LOCALIZATION?
Localization is the process of adapting, translating and customizing a product (software) for a specific market (for a specific locale or cultural conventions; the locale usually determines conventions such as sort order, keyboard layout, date, time, number and currency formats). In terms of software localization, this means the production of interfaces that are meaningful and comprehensible to local users.
The Localization Industry Standards Association (LISA) defines localization as: “Localization involves taking a product and making it linguistically and culturally appropriate to the target locale (country/region and language) where it will be used and sold.”
Typically, this involves the translation of the user interface (the messages a program presents to users) to enable them to create documents and data, modify them, print them, send them by e-mail, etc.)
![Page 51: IT AND TRANSLATION](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56812ea7550346895d944292/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
LOCALIZATION – what it includesFocal points of internationalization and localization efforts include: Language:
Computer-encoded text Alphabets/scripts; different systems of numerals; left-to-right script vs. right-to-left scripts. Most recent systems
use the Unicode to solve many of these character encoding problems. Graphical representations of text (printed materials, online images containing text) Spoken (Audio) Sub-titles for video
Date/time format, including use of different calendars Formatting of numbers (decimal points, positioning of separators, character used as separator) Time zones (UTC in internationalized environments) Currency Images and colors: issues of comprehensibility and cultural appropriateness Names and titles Government assigned numbers (such as the Social Security number in the US, National Insurance
number in the UK) and passports Telephone numbers, addresses and international postal codes Weights and measures Paper sizes Differences between local standards (e.g. YU ISO or JUS) and international standards (ISO)
![Page 52: IT AND TRANSLATION](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56812ea7550346895d944292/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
LOCALIZATION vs. INTERNATIONALIZATION
The distinction between internationalization and localization is subtle but important: Internationalization is the adaptation of
products for potential use virtually everywhere, while
localization is the addition of special features for use in a specific locale.
The processes are complementary, and must be combined to lead to the objective of a system that works globally.
![Page 53: IT AND TRANSLATION](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56812ea7550346895d944292/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
CAT tools for localization Over the last couple of years, in addition to
general-purpose TM tools such as Trados and Transit, translation technology companies also developed a number of TM tools specially designed for localization:

Other CAT tools (non-TM based) As we said earlier, computer-assisted
translation (CAT) is a broad and somewhat imprecise term covering a range of tools, from the fairly simple to the more complicated, which can include:
Word processors, grammar and spell checkers, terminology managers, eBooks, eDictionaries, full-text search tools, concordancers, web, TM tools, bitexts, etc.

CAT - REFERENCE MATERIALS Reference materials are the primary source of
terminology in absence of translation memory.
Computer-based reference materials can be classified into: Online libraries Specialized web resources Specialized software products Other materials in electronic formats
