Translation Insight from a former director of the Munich Sprachen & Dolmetscher Institute
“Privy Councilor Gautier was justified in taking the position that translations into a foreign language are best made by those people with a native’s command of that [target] language.” [Translation by Don Ford]

Basic translation principles include:
• Lexical analysis (defining)– Auswirkung: effect, impact, ramification
• Morphological analysis (parsing)– Auswirkung, Auswirkungen
• Syntactic analysis (defining in context)– effects versus impacts versus ramifications
• Cultural analysis (enculturating)– Zivilisation versus Kultur

MT for Asian Languages?
“Thankfully there’s been tremendous progress achieved by Asian institutions in natural language processing recently. This has been made possible by the increased availability of funds[,] as well as a growing consensus that statistical data-driven technologies coupled with traditional linguistic methods are here to stay—even for Asian languages such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean—
