Different Types of Translation
There are three types of translations on the market:
- Automatic Translations (Also MT, from the English Machine Translations)
- Computer-Aided Translations (Also CAT, from English Computer-Assisted Translations)
- The so-called Human Translations (those that translation professionals carry out only with the support of dictionaries).
TMS are translations carried out exclusively by computer software, without human intervention, which is sometimes counterproductive since you get a final translation with inconsistencies and grammatical errors.
CATs are translations where professionals use translation tools to increase efficiency; here, human and computer resources are combined. These tools give professional translators access to forums, glossaries, and specific terminology.
Having these precise definitions, you can choose the one that best suits your needs, and for that, these simple questions are helpful:
- Is the text technical in nature? (For example, a user manual)
If so, it would be best to opt for a computer-assisted translation.
- Is the text of a specialized nature? (For example, legal, medical, scientific, etc.)
In this case, it is best to turn to a professional specialized in the subject; this way, translation errors are avoided. The professional is the one who will determine whether or not to use technological tools.
Note that currently, given the urgent nature of most translations, the most widely used practice is the one that considers the use of the Internet and software to support the translator’s work.
Simple translations vs. certified translations
Simple translations do not require any certificate or legalization; their function is only informative—for example, a personal letter, an email, a blog, an opinion article, etc.
On the other hand, certified translations require the intervention of a notary public to make them official; that is, they have legal validity—for example, sworn translations, visa translations, marriage translations, etc.
There is also a certified translation with an advanced electronic signature, which a qualified professional translator carries out with a digital certificate. These translations are valid nationally and internationally.
Due to globalization, the use of certified translations with advanced electronic signatures is more common. This kind of translation is required in 95% of cases, saving time and money for all who need to translate documents.
