A translation is the conversion of a WRITTEN word, sentence or text from one (source) language into another (target) language.

We also speak about “translation” when we refer to the linguistic conversion from oral speech (audio or video) to a written text in a different language.

For the translation process to be of the highest quality, it must include the following steps:

– REVIEW (comparing the content of the source text and the target text by checking the writing style);

– CORRECTION (checking the accuracy of linguistic elements and formatting);

– TERMINOLOGY MANAGEMENT (creation of client-specific glossaries which are stored in translation memories or terminology databases).
