TAUS Data Association (TDA) Opens Free “Corpora-for-MT” Service To The Public |
|
|
TAUS Data Association (TDA), a non-profit web-based platform for sharing language data, has made translation memory (TM) upload and download open for public users. Anyone in the world can download TMs at no cost as long as they also upload TMs. A user who wants to download more data than they have uploaded will be able to buy credit bundles. This new free public service will drive the adoption and improvement of machine translation (MT) technology. The TDA repository already contains 3.4 billion words in 320 language pairs of human-quality translations, an invaluable resource that has been in use by TDA members for over two years. By opening the platform to public users TDA aims to increase the volume of translated words in more languages and more domains, in turn creating greater benefits for members and new users.
"Читать – значит переводить, поскольку опыт у всех людей разный. Плохой читатель, как плохой переводчик: он буквально воспринимает то, что нужно перефразировать, и перефразирует там, где нужна буквальная точность. При чтении важна не столько образованность как таковая, (ценная сама по себе), сколько природное чутьё; большие учёные нередко оказывались плохими переводчиками".
Уистен Хью Оден "Чтение" |

In June 2006, Jeff Howe, editor at Wired magazine, published an article called «The Rise of Crowdsourcing». In this way, a neologism – crowdsourcing (crowd, sourcing) - was coined. |
Years of experience in translation service marketing allows us to create several unique features of the market. One of them is poor customer awareness. |
Thanks to development of computer & online translators one can easily translate a text of any volume from or to a foreign language. However are things indeed as radiant as they seem at first sight? When is the machine translation appropriate and when, on the contrary, it is not at all? |
One of our agency`s regular clients made a comment on a translation we completed for them, and it has not left my mind since. It encapsulated a criteria for judging the quality of a translation which had not occurred to me before. |
Obtaining information, providing assistance and forging relationships are very tough things to do when first meeting people, but it is even tougher when you are in a combat environment and don't speak the language. |
