Only a professional translator can ensure the accurate and timely translation of a text.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Translation or Pre-translation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Just like in post-editing, the primary use of AI in the translation process involves the pre-translation of the text. This is an initial and rough stage of language conversion, whose output text will then be reworked and reviewed by the translator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Proofreading<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the survey results, about one in six translators uses AI to proofread the target text, which has already been translated, in order to review its spelling, grammar, and\/or punctuation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Source Text Analysis<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Another practical use of AI for translators is the analysis of the source text. At this stage, it is possible to identify the main topic of the translation, the key terminology used, and typical linguistic characteristics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Generating Translations<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the survey results, more than one-third of translators use AI to generate alternative versions of the target text. For example, AI can rephrase the same concept into a more concise, creative, or formal text.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Adjusting Tone, Register, or Style<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, AI can help linguists properly set the text and adapt it to different target audiences. It can also ensure the correct use of industry-specific terminology, thereby fully maintaining the textual coherence of the document.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Creating and Maintaining Glossaries<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, AI\u2019s extraction and terminology revision capabilities are used by about one in ten linguists, applying AI in the creation and updating of bilingual and monolingual glossaries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Drawing on an article by Anna Wyndham published in the renowned linguistic magazine Slator, we will take a closer look at some of the advantages AI can offer to translators and linguists in carrying out their interlinguistic activities.
