Everyone’s talking about machine translation post-editing, but just as important is machine translation pre-editing. Despite the advances in neural machine translation and large language models—which we can’t deny, the quality of machine-generated translations still depends on the quality of the source text. And that’s what we’re going to discuss in today’s article. What is machine […]

There are so many ways in which a translation can turn bad. We agree, translation mistakes can be funny, but sometimes they really damage a brand. In today’s article, […]

So let’s discuss what this role involves and how to enter the field. What a data annotator is A data annotator is someone who […]

People tend to use machine translation and AI translation either interchangeably, or as two processes completely different. In reality, one is a broad technical field with decades of history, while the other is a technological evolution built on… No, we’re not revealing this already. Read on to see why the shouldn’t be a debate on […]

Today we’re talking about niche markets, a smaller group of a market, yet one with unique preferences. There’s less competition here, but it’s no easy task to cater to the needs of these audience. Especially when you also have to localize your product(s). Let’s see what localization in niche markets means. What are niche markets? […]
