VALUES AND ETHICS OF TRANSLATION-I

In this era, decision-making processes leading to a plan of action which directs to the hiring of any personnel or their dismissal must be carried out in keeping with an authorized way of code of conduct. Considerable efforts have been made by society in recent years towards eradicate workplace problems, whatever be the situations, such as quality issues or fail to meet the deadlines, internal bandwidth or conflicts, wasting of money and interest. Every subordinates and superiors are strongly encouraged and required to resolve any conflicts with discretion, honesty and respect.
There are few examples like appropriate using of the terminology contained in the approved glossary of management values and ethics which was prepared from terminological information gathering from prior authorized linguists who have sufficient knowledge to express, judge and prove their values and ethics which helps us to overcome from any of the situations.

Along with a number of definitions and observations, the terminological content on management values reflects new trends being adopted by everyone from client to linguists, so that we can serve the quality products to the market with valuable and effective worth. We’ve spent a lot of time thinking about the ethics of translation and our role and responsibilities as a professional translator or supporter; it may happen that your thoughts and views will clear reading this article. It has been observed that the ideas can be developed fully and should be acceptable and adjustable in any environment also to solve the problem with immediacy and spontaneity over fragmentation and simplification.

We need to develop the intercultural communications with our clients, without judgment, and as a linguists, we have to strictly follow the professionalism grounds to decide that a text, however controversial its content and provided it doesn’t break any law, should not be translated. Its our duty towards both potential clients and the recipients of our translations. As an individual, however, we have to choose or create certain morals, principles and independent opinions, which can make us very comfortable to handle with any problematic situations with a particular subject and lead to a schizophrenic conflict with alter ego, as a professional translator.
Act of translation, with the help of tools such as glossaries, style guides, toolkits and reference material, creates a process and decorum for any translator to localize any content of a document: they are act as arms for any translators or linguists.

Whether you are in dilemma or not, its your responsibility to adopt what decision would you have take, so that a better and convenient way will come out.

HOW TO JUDGE ANY LANGUAGE TRANSLATOR?

I hope that you all agree with this point that the feedback which we normally received from the end users about any product or services will ensure us to judge the quality of any product or services. In translation industry also we judge the quality of the finished product based on the translation quality of any linguist. But the question is how a company obtains an effective and quality based translation from their translators or linguists.

First of all, selection of any translators, editors, proof readers and reviewers are done based on several criteria, also they required to know what the priorities, exact project was and who will be the end user. All are depend on selection of best linguists to accomplish the task. Diversity of domain, context area, content, project importance and its various paradigms will consider and forced us to select on that basis only. Sometimes companies will ask "native speakers" to read the translation and tell them if it's any good or bad, and then have to compare with conflicting evaluations. 

The problem usually is related with that the evaluators are either not very mush qualified to judge, or afraid to offend.  It may also happen some times, that although native speakers, there are some peoples who have lived in the other foreign countries for years and have lost touch with their native language, or never knew it very well, particularly if they were educated in other places.

It may also happen that the translator which you had chosen to complete your tasks is of well known, domain specialist native linguists. But it is not necessary that you will get the same for review and proof reading. So, it very much required to fill the feedback forms before handed out to the desired candidate. We can also mark or categories to rank it as excellent, good, fair, or poor.

With the help and support of some QA tool you can also judge and ensure about the translation quality from technical perspectives. For assurance about linguistic quality, it is must require to inspect and get the feedback from third party reviewer who will review it and follow all the client instructions, norms and standard. In standardization of any rules and regulation is always includes the concept of glossary, style guides and special instruction which you neither violates nor ignore. The deviation and inflection of glossary might be happened but only when they have the specific and sufficient reasons or explanation behind it so that each and every linguist will able to prove their translation as quality translation and maintain the dignity and standard of the complete assignment.

You always require remembering that your end user is not a qualified translator and is not judging the translation, but they can assure you about the quality of the finished product. The fact is that the average user of a translation has no idea how to judge them, and usually gives an opinion based on civility, orneriness, desire to please, or any number of other factors. So, the selection of every process should be very identical and clear so that from very first to last everyone should understand it and follow it.

Mission fulfilled: The language that serves more than one purpose is always special to people widely used the language.

It is a desire by people from every corner of the world to have the feel of being surrounded by multi-cultures which takes them to India. Hindi language translation helpfully adds more fun or charm to their trips. In India there is a Hindi language interpretation, conversion and translation services found everywhere and usually done into and from more than 100+ Indians or international languages.

Hindi language played an important role in keeping people together under thick integration, despite the fact that it has so many people from different cultural backgrounds. Still it can fetch pride showing unity in diversity which is a message itself of peace, kindness and friendliness to the world and it is well appreciated everywhere.

Origin: The origin of Hindi has a long history; Sanskrit is considered to be the major root source of Hindi. There are many similarities of the language with Sanskrit that indicates of having deep connection with it. Much of the vocabularies of the language are usually from Sanskrit. Hindi is written in Devnagari script which is same with the scripts of other Indian languages.

 With the passage of time it got influence of other languages particularly Urdu. Today, whatever Hindi language people use is mixed up of Urdu. It can be evidenced through the songs composed by skilful lyricists or poets or writers. So whatever the form it attained now is considered as the standards Hindi known as “Manak Hindi” all it became possible only due to intermingling of regional or cultural dialects or languages. Hindi has become no more the same language as it was earlier a century back. A lot of variations came into it on the path of its full development.



Language status: In India Hindi attained an elite status as people in all over the country agreeably accepted the official status given to it and also considers it as modern standardized Hindi which is known as “Manak”. Manak is a kind of standard set or provided by the Government of India.  Besides that, it has become our national language and commonly used by people in all kinds of official or unofficial works. The popularity of the language has already crossed borders; more than 700 millions of people usually speak it worldwide. More than 180 million people in India used Hindi as their mother tongue and 300 million people used it as second language. The dominance of the language can be felt or seen by the increasing usage of it.

India now turned into a huge business hub or destination in the world market which is also indirectly supporting the widespread of this language globally.

Localization services and it's process


Localization is the process of adapting a product and services that has been previously translated into different languages to a specific country or region. The word localization is derived from Latin word “locus” which means place and the English term “Locale”, is a place where something happens or is set.

Understand the circumstances: - Error may occur after translation



First Mistake. Do not use someone who is not a translator.

If you think that anyone who speaks a second language can translate well and accurately. In fact, translation requires a domain specialized skill set that is not so easy to find. A translator must have very good knowledge of both source and target languages. They should have skill to write something in the target language, having excellent attention to detail. They must also have broad general knowledge across a range of fields and excellent command over reference materials (bilingual & specialist dictionaries, thesaurus, etc.).
While choosing a translator we need to look for specific translation qualifications having particular domain knowledge and solid experience.

2nd Mistake. Using someone translating into their second language.

Quality translation requires excellent writing skills; command over particular domain and these are first developed in the education system and then honed with experience. It is not possible for someone to become a talented and error-free writer if his/her education wasn’t conducted in that 2nd language.
There are lots of word which is complex to understand if you are not native in that language. That’s what can happen when people translate into their 2nd language.

3rd Mistake. Using a translator who is out of their depth

General Translators cannot translate Technical, engineering, legal, accounting and medical terms efficiently. So, a translator should have expertise to a particular field and other areas where their knowledge is limited in particular fields all need to be distributed with by translators experienced in those fields. To have an accurate quality and natural sounding translation the translator must command the specialist terminology and writing style of that particular domain.

4th Mistake. Inadequate checking and editing.

Translating doesn’t appear to be an exceptionally common thing for the human brain to do. Translation is not an easy task to translate a sentence in one language and easily express that content well in another language. That’s why expert translators see their first endeavor as just a draft translation, to be thoroughly checked and then polished to make a precise and characteristic sounding translation.

Thorough checking procedures are therefore important. Inexperienced translators sometimes hand over their first attempt as a final translation. Doing so may also contain omissions and/or errors. Now a days professional translation company have their own procedures to produce a quality translation to their clients according to their need, generally a native speaker of the source language, to provide a safety check of the initial translator’s ‘final’ text.

5th Mistake. Imposing a dead line that is too tight.

We often estimate less time for translating a document. As a guideline, we need to allow 1½ to 2 hours translation time per 300 word or page, if there is more technical and difficult terms then we need to allow more time for translation.. Qualified and experienced translators can put their final translation aside for at least a couple of hours after completion and then re-read it checking solely for quality of expression.

The short time pressure the less time there is for checking, which may cause to increases the chances of omission and/or error and is much more likely to produce a somewhat affected final text.

6th  Mistakes. Ignoring the language of target audience.

People typically overlook the variant language are utilized with dialects. For example, for Chinese, do you require Cantonese or Mandarin? Both are written differently. The same as the spoken language, the written is also a little different and natives of each will notice the difference. So, you need to ensure the translator doesn't produce a text that sounds 'foreign' to the target market.

7th Mistake. Not using a professional translation service

Professional translation companies like us offer two key benefits. We have a thorough and proven translation quality management procedure to provide a quality translation of your documents. In fact, if you are not using a professional service means you may be effectively playing with quality.

Q. Can a translator translate any kind of translation project?

Ans- Kind of...but not every project.  Let say’ if there is a video game project to translate. Every translator can’t do translation of video game due to the technical terms used in video game project. There is wide variety of technical words and material. Game translation is a complex and still trial work. If you got a work for game translation than you must aware of  it  that, words in games work on three different levels: the software/hardware level (files/memory units/controllers), the game metaphor level ("items", "rooms", "levels") and the narrative layer ("Sorry Mario, the Princess is in another castle").

Could you be a Freelance Translator?


Work as a freelance translator is mostly transmitted online, making this a portable business well-suited to people living in locations where there are few translation jobs or who wish to work in the nude. A survey by the American Translators Association found that the average freelance translator in the United States earned $50,000 a year. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that the market will be better-than-average next year, and many translators are busier now than ever.

Working as a freelance translator, it is best to have an alternative source of income for the first year unless the languages you know are heavily in-demand. While you need only one offer to secure a full-time job, a freelance translator requires a sizable list of regular clients. The search for clients will never end, as workflow rises and falls, agencies go out of business, and that project manager who loves you dearly might quit and be replaced by someone who already has translators they favor. You will probably be sending your resume to between three and five possible clients a week.

You should not disdain the local market, particularly if you present yourself better in person than on paper. You should approach agencies that say they do not hire beginners or have no work in your language pair.
You should join associations such as the American Translators Association. You will be astounded by the number of translation-related websites, newsletters and magazines that are available. You can also gain advice from other translators. They might fear that you will swoop down on their clients, but most enjoy their work and are all-too-happy to speak of their jobs and how they got started. An offer to pay for lunch may be all it takes.

Instead of expecting an employer to ascertain your abilities from your resume, you should highlight specific skills such as “French Translation specialist” or “Arabic with a mechanical engineering background.” You should mention if you are immediately available for work. Your skills are more proven if you are certified, for instance by the American Translators Association.

As a freelancer, you will be responsible for your own health insurance, taxes, retirement funding, and vacation and sick time, but as a translator you also face the costs of office equipment, dictionaries, professional travel and continuing education. You will spend time on marketing, networking, billing, accounting, and even cleaning your own office. Working 40 hours a week could result in billing of only 25 hours.

There is a plus side. You could earn tax deductions for business expenses and will not spend money on commuting. If you have children, childcare expenses will be drastically reduced. Even if you cannot take care of your child yourself, you could employ a teenager to play outside with your spawn while you work inside. The extra time you will be able to spend with your child is another great boon.

Clients may well believe you to be capable of work you cannot handle because it is too long or too complex, and agreeing to conduct such work is one of the surest ways to sabotage your incipient business. You should never, ever miss a deadline without notifying the client in advance.

If you wish to work as a freelance translator, the book, How to Succeed as a Freelance Translator, was written by a person who has succeeded in the field, and could be useful to you.

Precautions during Medical Terms Translation


Every time whenever we need something, generally we look for some one expert for that specific field. For example let say some one surfing from gastric problem and they need of medical assistance, than definitely they will consult a doctor, but it would be better if they go to the Gastroenterologist. Indeed, when emergency situation, we accept that all we have to do is to convey the way of our mishap and an expert will solve all our woes.

There is continually growing number of UK natives who speak a dialect other than English in their homes and who have restricted capability in English. In the U.S. the last reported figures for comparative detail were that out of the aggregate population, around 45 million individuals' first dialect was not English and out of these, 18 million had constrained proficiency in English. There are no figures accessible for the UK.

The issue laid out above, which is one of translation and interpretation, this additionally grows into an alternate dimension, that of Document Translation and Interpretation. Constantly expanding volumes of patient case notes, research notes and other curative documentation are touching base from global medical establishments, or need to be sent to establishments abroad and this throws up a unique set of issues.

The Medical documents should be translated precisely and accurately, its fact that during translation of medical terms as there is no direct equivalency in terms. So you need to put it in simpler way. The solution to medical translations and Interpretations lays in the utilization of professional medical translation experts. These companies usually hire qualified translators to slice through the confusing terminology of medical terms to achieve a coherent and exact translation of the source content.

So, finding Translation agency that has qualified medical translation experts is not an easy task who can undertake such medical translation and interpretation. Medical Translators should not only be proficient in the source and target languages but also should be from medical field and having depth knowledge of the medical subject.

Pitfalls to evade when translating English to Spanish

If you are going to translate your documents into Spanish language then you must be aware of these pitfalls.

A business man who is going to launch their product in global market, it is most important to understand the culture of the countries to which the products and their relative documents are tended to. Hence, the main task for clients and translators is to deal with cultural differences between countries which is sometime more difficult to understand. To overcome with this problem we need to consult someone who has a good knowledge about their native culture of the countries.

For example, company work slogans and corporate goal statements can be easily misunderstood in different locales.

From a linguistic point of view the word “you,” it is important to know the target audience, as Spanish uses three different forms to target the readers or audience: the commonly used infinitive, the plural “usted” used to be more direct, or the singular “le,” which is used an informal tone to the writing.

What are aspects of this language that are exceptional or not the same as English or different dialects?


As I have mentioned above, in Spanish there are different ways of targeting the readers of a document; therefore it is more important to know your audience will read the translated documents.

Here are some grammatical differences between Spanish to English:-
  • In the third person, Spanish differentiates between direct and indirect object pronouns.
  • In Spanish, object pronouns can be attached to some verbs.
  • The distinction between direct and indirect objects is different in the two languages.
  • It is common in Spanish to use an object pronoun even when the noun represented by the pronoun is explicitly stated.
Spanish sometimes uses an indirect object pronoun where English would use a phrase.

Another main difference between English and Spanish is in the representation of information lies in the realization decisions selected by both dialects. In this manner while Spanish have a tendency to utilize non-prosodic mechanism for focus realization, English regularly prefers to use prosody for the expression. The phonetics system of Spanish is significantly different from the English, especially in the parts of vowel sounds and sentence stress.  Spanish has 5 vowels and 5 diphthongs while English has 12 pure vowels and 8 diphthongs.

 

How do these attributes make it vital to utilize by qualified, expert Translators?


A professional translator has a sharp knowledge of source and the target languages and cultures.  Only native professional translator can point out to a client if any cultural issues that may require some modifications in the translated text. This is most important, when it comes to deciphering ideas, for example striving for excellence and leadership, from English into Spanish.

A qualified, professional translator is aware of possible new skills of the languages, with the new software tools especially developed for our profession. Generally after translation or localization you observe some mistakes have occurred with the target language, it might be text expansion, character encoding, typos, formats etc. Due to this we have to go with review task.

Since the Spanish translation of English text expands by about 25%, during the Quality Analysis phase of localized strings, often we face problems with cutoff strings, which were simply replaced by dots…in addition; it can be caused of lack of agreement between nouns and adjectives, this maybe happen, the text was either translated in a hurry, or obviously not rechecked, or done by machine.

It would be better if you provide one sample of a specific phrase or notion so that, a translator can communicate accordingly.

Role of Translation in Clinical Trial Research

A huge and regularly climbing extent of clinical Research is carried out in multi-nation trials, and most drugs that are advertised in the US are created or manufactured abroad.

Translation is needed at numerous stages over the span of putting up a medicine for sale in the market, incorporating clinical research, regulatory submissions, assembling, promoting and packaging. While the immediate cost of translation is exceptionally minor, translation can have a shockingly expansive impact for better and for more regrettable on some significant truth. These components incorporate the total cost of the trials, the time to market, the possibility of claims or dismissal by controllers and even the safety and adequacy of the advertised item.


For example, regulators once in a while reject requisitions or delay their approval if the needed translations are insufficient. Accordingly, cost can expand dramatically, and market entry might be deferred by months if not years, with misfortune of competitiveness.

Additionally, insufficient translation can cover crucial connections between the information from research sites which work in diverse dialects. Therefore, insufficient translation can have enormously high indirect expenses. The loss of data quality can't be remunerated by enhancing an alternate part of the development process.

Language Ambiguity in Translation

Despite the actual fact that ambiguity in language is an important part of language translation, it's typically associate in Nursing obstacle to be neglected or a tangle to be solved for folks to grasp one another.

Here I outline some terms to clarify what we tend to mean by "ambiguity”; by process lexical and structural ambiguity, connotation, denotation and implication.

What does Language Ambiguity Mean?

Something is ambiguous once when it is often leaves two senses. If the paradox is during a single word it's referred to as polysemy, during a sentence or clause, structural ambiguity.

Cases of polysemy square measure everywhere. Actually, almost any expression has over one which implies. "Note" = "A musical tone" or "A short record." "Lie" = "Statement that you simply understand it isn't true".  Ambiguity will mean Associate in nursing uncertainty on what you mean. Ambiguity tends to extend with frequency of usage.

In traditional speech, ambiguity will generally be understood as one thing humorous or deceitful.  Harry Rusche proposes that ambiguity got to be extended to any verbal subtlety that provides house to totally different reactions to identical linguistic element.

Ambiguity and linguistics

Computational linguistics has two aims: To change computers to be used as aids in analyzing and process tongue, and to understand, by analogy with computers, further concerning however folks process tongue.
One of the first most important problems in process tongue is that the negative aspects of ambiguity. Most ambiguities escape our notice as a results of we tend to square measure excellent at breakdown them exploitation context and our information to the world. But computer systems don't have this data and consequently do not do an honest job of constructing use of the context.

The problem of ambiguity arises when computers attempt translate into human language, as computer on the web retrieves data regarding for a particular word get’s different meanings of the search terms, meanings that we tend to had no interest in. In Machine Translation, it is not possible for the Computers to distinguish the meaning between the various meanings of Associate in Nursing English word that will be expressed by terribly different words within the target language.

Endeavors to disentangle the matter of ambiguity have focused on 2 potential results:  knowledge-based and applied mathematics systems. Inside the learning based methodology, the framework or system developers may as well encipher a fabulous arrangement of data with regards to the planet and improve techniques to utilize it in crucial the sense of the text.
