Comparable Corpora and Computer-Assisted Translation

Comparable Corpora and Computer-Assisted Translation

Computer-assisted translation (CAT) has always used translation memories, which require the translator to have a corpus of previous translations that the CAT software can use to generate bilingual lexicons. This can be problematic when the translator does not have such a corpus, for instance, when the text belongs to an emerging field.

Knowledge and Skills in Translator Behavior
8
 
 
Knowledge and Skills in Translator BehaviorThis book represents an approach which is intended to give readers a general insight into what translators really do and to explain the concepts and tools of the trade, bearing in mind that translation cannot be reduced to simple principles that can easily be separated from each other and thus be handled in isolation. On the whole, the book is more process- than product-centred.

Training the Translator
11
 
 

Training the TranslatorThis book begins by investigating, through the use of think-aloud protocols, the mental processes of students when they translate. The creative and successful processes observed can be used directly for teaching purposes, while the unsuccessful ones can serve to find out where remedial training is needed. The book then goes on to discuss methods for improving a translator's competence.

The book is intended for teachers in translator-training institutions, but it can also be used by students for self-training.
