Re: TRANSLATIONS

["S. Vaughan" <suzanna_v -at- hotmail -dot- com>]

Hello Tasos,

As a professional translator, I don't recommend that you use translation s/w 
EVER for any type of project. You're better off finding reputable 
translators to do your project.


Even if you use a translation memory program, someone has to spend their 
time entering all the phrases and acceptable translations depending on the 
field (scientific, computer, etc.)

Why waste that time when you can have someone translate your project and 
create a translation glossary for each of the target languages?

In the past, I was contracted to clean up the mess left by machine 
translations or would-be translators who knew the target language but not 
the source.

I'm curious to know what you want to translate. Please do share.

Suzanne
