Quality check done by less experienced translators
As someone who has worked as a translator for many years, I have seen how agencies can fail to deliver quality translations. In many cases, this is due to the fact that they use less experienced translators who are not familiar with the nuances of the language. As a result, they may make mistakes in grammar or sentence structure.
Even if a translation is reviewed by a more experienced translator, it can still be full of errors. This is because the review process is often not thorough enough. The reviewer may not catch all of the errors, or they may simply not have the time to properly revise the translation. Editing by a less experienced translator would even get worse.
As a result, it is often up to the client to check the quality of the translation before it is published or used. This can be a time-consuming and frustrating process, but it is essential in order to ensure that your message is conveyed accurately. In order to reduce your burden, we can also proofread and edit your translation before delivery.
What is proofreading?
Proofreading is the process of checking a text for errors or inconsistencies. This is a different process to editing, which is the process of making changes to the content of a text.
Proofreading involves checking for things like:
Spelling and grammatical errors
Punctuation
Capitalisation
Incorrect or missing words
Inconsistencies in terminology
Inconsistencies in style
It is generally recommended that a text should be proofread by someone who did not write it. This is because it can be difficult to spot your own mistakes.
Why is proofreading important?
Proofreading is important because it ensures that your text is free from errors and is consistent in terms of style and terminology. This is essential if you want your text to be taken seriously.
If you are publishing a text, it is especially important to proofread it carefully. This is because errors in a published text can be difficult to correct.
