trados Jan 13, 2006

trados does not help in translating. It will not translate anything for you. But it will save you a lot of time in technical/repetitive translations where you will have a TM [translation memory] and you can keep on feeding translations you do into it. Once you have built a good amount of translation memories, you just need to find matches and copy required strings and paste them. That way, your time for future translations could be saved. At the same time, it would help you in technical consiste... See more

Once you have built a good amount of translation memories, you just need to find matches and copy required strings and paste them. That way, your time for future translations could be saved. At the same time, it would help you in technical consistency, which is very important in certain types of translations such as airline menus, medical and mobile telephony. It would also be very helpful in engineering and highly technical translations. ▲ Collapse

currency difference Jan 21, 2006

Dear Sir/Madam,

I'm from India and would like to be your platinum member but the problem is that the lowest plat-membership costs $120. The american $ is 50 times higher than Indian Rupee. So for US citizen it costs only 120 units of currency while for us it is 120 x 50 units.

Also the jobs we are getting is paid w.r.t. Indian Rupee value. No one approves higher quotation.

So I appeal to the proz.com to authorities to take money keeping the currency difference in... See more

Dear Participants

Please accept our sincere thanks for your gracious present during the powwow meet on January 28, 2006 in New Delhi.

It was nice to meet highly enthusiastic team of translators with great interest in Translation tools. The event started with a very informal presentation of a translation tool called “GlobalLink – Machine Translator” by undersigned “Ravi Kumar” followed by discussion on usage of “ wordfast” by Mr. C.M Rawal, and later a training session on use of Trados by Mr. Tamil Selvan.

Mr. Tamil Selvan showed us the way to use TRADOS in different foreign languages, and later upon request from participants (specially Mr. Roomy Naqvy and Mr. C.M Rawal) Mr. Selvan reinstalled the TRADOS to provide demo and training for using it with Indian languages with focus on Hindi.

During the meet it was also decided to frequently convene such meetings which would promote development of close bonding amongst fellow translators and inter-exchange of ideas. It was also decided to organize a meet for discussing areas related to use of CAT tools in Indian languages with a focus on Hindi and Gujrati.


Please once gain accept our sincere thanks for your continued support.
