Brands such as a person's name is a symbol of the merchandise. With the continuous expansion of the exchange of goods, brands are becoming better known. To retain a greater share of the market, a product must have a relatively high quality. It largely depends on the understanding and acceptance by consumers.
The globalization of the world economy demands trade of countries in products and brands "..." Internationalization become much clearer in the old days, as a result of the development of the commercial economy, a brand is an important factor in today's social economy as the American academic Rees Ai said: "the accuracy of the translation has a big impact on sales."We know that translation is a cruz-lenguaje, cross-cultural communicative activity. both, seems the translation of the brand that can not be ignored. a good brand is the only deep people and strong impression, which can bring the quality of assets and unique features, and can also stimulate the desire of people to buy. A translation best marks not only enormous benefits to a company, but also to disseminate the culture and image of a company.
Without, however, the brand as a special form of language, a series of own cultural characteristics and carries a certain cultural significance of East and West. Due to differences in cultural background, geographic location, ethnic origin, nature, religion, economic development, the concept of tradition, customs, the cognitive perspective, the forms of thinking and orientation of values vary from country to country. Brands of translation has a feature unique among other types of Arabic Translation Service. In comparison with other types of translation, a translation marks is much more complex. The language is part of culture, but also the carrier of culture. Translation of trademarks should remain the essence of the original meaning and place planned consumption. How to make that translation of brand is accepted by consumers and in another distinctive culture is a problem that cannot be ignored.
Marks is a unit of language and culture. Mark is a symbol not only of writing, but also a reflection of the economy. If a mark to make the acceptance by the consumer or not will determine the future of the brand. Unique and creative brand quickly attracted the attention of consumers. Translation brands cannot ignore. The cultural background of their subject at this point, a translation of brands is not only a transformation, but also a form of cultural transformation.
Different consumers who live in different cultural contexts, and their minds are influenced by different cultures. Due to its geographic location, ethnicity, religion, economic development and the differences listed other cultures. These cultural factors have a significant influence on consumer buying decisions. Therefore, translators know cultural factors of brand and combine with the translation and background information. Today, the brand is firmly established, translators must follow to find an appropriate method to create the brand more and more excellent in the international market.

The Translatability And Untranslatability
There is a phenomenon that part of the original language in the translation may not occur are expressed, this is untranslatable. Interlingual translation always exists. The reason for a language with a lot of really quality and limitations, never translate to consider how the problem of other cultures. If the translation of the hwp file is untranslatable say phenomenon is normal and objective.
Translatability can be divided in two.
The first type is the lack of expression language equivalent shape. A language in a sense, form a semantic expression of the artist they also expressed some of the features of shape and a different language, and only the lack of properly can express the importance and by pressing the required number of characteristics of the form, the problem of the United Nations seems. This is untranslatable to have basic linguistics. The phenomenon untranslatability absolute Arabic Translation Service is often associated with some phenomena form of the language.
Phrase "path, width, ma, mad" is not only the general form of the effect of the form, and content there.
Sentence "Street", "wide" and "B" will not be translated into Chinese. For example, if the English language form as content. The phenomenon occurs. In addition, is not the father of the linguistic form of related phenomenon properties untranslatable words. This type of phenomenon is mainly the language of shape properties achieve a rhetorical effect. They belong to this kind of phenomena has charm (especially head rhyme) game text (never better said) and a certain practical importance, etc form Chinese language and the meaning of sound (in the structure of the rhetoric as a play on words, leaving Word tear, imitation Word, etc) is almost untranslatable. Such as: the end of the very easy to get, one day, my mother told me, Runtu come, I'm going to see broken. (Lu Xun "hometown")
Finally, came the end of the year, and one day the mother told me that Runtu had arrived, and I flew to see him. (Yan Xianyi, use stacked co-traductor)
Sentence "easy" real concerns "is not easy", said the feeling of warmth of sexual desire demonstrated the rhetoric. It is the untranslatable.
The second, the absence of expression is the form of the language. I.e., the idea of the original Professional Language Solutions to express that it is brand new. National applied the new term vocabulary of new ideas, and the other due to social or national geographic reason does not produce this kind of new concepts, new ideas, if they have to translate the new words. Meet the untranslatable. For example, English "illoetionaryaet" a new, both "between the lines" and "purpose Words" means to take, even "non-verbal activities". China is not a proper word to express it. Cultural differences in the corresponding translation in cross-linguistic translatability of the cause of the difficulty and the main reason. The original language of the so-called objects in the language of origin does not exist in, the practice of not go unnoticed. Such as "loose" and "crane" in the china analogy, it can be a long life. In contrast, there are no equivalent English metaphors. The beneficiaries of English for "loose" and "crane" and may not lead to the same receiver and Chinese Lenovo. And as the United States, but says that the scientific language (for example, a University Professor) for the "Brainiac", this. In Chinese, it will not be proper and meant in addition, intellectuals in China was once "The Lord of nine" crowned, if from the social and cultural background of today, it is hard to understand the meaning of the name. Here are some examples of language between any form and content, there are very unique, it cannot replace other symbols that each one made between language and culture, some seemed insurmountable cannons, a serious obstacle to the exchange of each other. This is the story of translation for cultural reasons.
In general, things are not the same thing is not "without words. As it is known to all, the translation is a type of language, ideas, correct and complete to bring in a different language to express again. So in the process of translation, it represents exactly, it is untranslatable. This means that, in fact, the translation and the mistranslation having precise image, complete, and can reach untranslatability is correct and complete.

Bad Habits Will Influence Translation Output
Translation quality and speed are two important aspects that many translators
have been pursuing since the moment they take translation as their careers. To
enhance both aspects, many skills and methods are the given conditions. But does
this mean we can perform well in the Korean Translation Services after we have mastered good
skills and methods? The answer is not exactly so. In fact, some bad habits will
influence the translation output negatively.
Be dilatory in translation. The translators do not handle the manuscript
immediately after it has been transferred to them. Or the translators think the
time is sufficient and do not hurry up during translation. These kinds of
behaviors are very harmful. If the material to be handled is very difficult or
the translators waste much time at the initial stage of the translation process.
At last, the results may be that the translators do not have enough time to
translate the material and they may get through the translation carelessly. Then
we can image what the quality may be. The correct behavior is to handle the
material as soon as possible when it is assigned to the translator. And the
translator should also master time well during translation.
Do not read the material any more after it has been Arabic Translation Service translated. Some translators think that I have already finished the manuscript, so it has nothing to do with me any more. Such mind is wrong. There may be many professional words in the material just translated. Or we may not completely understand the whole original manuscript as it is very professional. The correct way is that we should conclude each source document after we have finished it, i.e. learn the edited transcripts. By doing so, we can record the professional words and sentences we had not correctly understood in the notebook for future study. And we can remember these words in mind for future use. We can also analyze the wrong sentences and find out the reason why we understood them incorrectly. This will help us to cement them in our mind and we shall not misunderstand them if we come cross similar sentences in the future.
In short, to ensure high translation output, we should get rid of the above two bad habits.

Translation In Website Localization
Website localization is the process of adapting an
existing website to local language and culture in the target market.
Language, symbols, images, color, navigation and content all need to be
taken into account seriously in a Website Localization project.
I have been working on several website localization projects
recently, and I learnt much from them. Today I will talk about the
importance and tips in English-Chinese website localization. If you have
any different ideas, you can leave your comments here.
Translating a website from English into Chinese is not as simple as it may appear. There are numerous factors that we can never neglect when translating a website’s content
Consistency and variation in content
When large quantities of content are being translated manually, it is very difficult to produce consistent English Translation Services of recurrent stretches of text, such as paragraphs, sentences and phrase.
But as we all know, it is important for the translated websites to carry on the same style and layout, as well as same language style as the source sites, to produce a general impression, and to reach a better corporate communication effect. When you are translating, you need to know the corporate culture, product and services , and the management idea and also it’s history. Only on that basis can we deliver exactly the same information as the need.
In the other hand, variation is also necessary. You must adapt your words to the local customs. Using the wrong language for the wrong reader in your localization project will lead to a misunderstanding of the site or company. So, one must analyze the style of the language and the target audience. If the audience is business personnel, the vocabulary, grammar and punctuation must reflect this. If the audience is informal or youth orientated then a more relaxed language must used. Using the wrong language for the wrong reader in your localization project will lead to a misunderstanding of the site or company.
SO, both consistency and variation are important when it comes to website localization. It’s a measure that we have to take seriously, to make improve its readability.
Be linguistically and culturally sensitive
Ensures the website Korean Translation Services is translated in an appropriate way both linguistically and culturally. Vocabulary, grammar, punctuation, style, and level of speech are considered to make sure the language used reflects the target audience’s culture and society.
One must analyse the style of the language and the target audience. If the audience is foreign business personnel, the vocabulary, grammar and punctuation must reflect this. If the audience is informal or youth orientated then a more relaxed language must used.
So it is important for those who are not very familiar with their target culture to make some preparations before translating, like asking for an opinion from a native, or looking for some related information. Seemingly innocent words and phrases could be misunderstood by another culture. If you use terminology that is only understood in your region or culture, the best case you can hope for is that a visitor to your site just won’t understand and will ignore it, but it really reduces your credibility and the overall enjoyment of visiting your site.

When large quantities of content are being translated manually, it is very difficult to produce consistent English Translation Services of recurrent stretches of text, such as paragraphs, sentences and phrase.
But as we all know, it is important for the translated websites to carry on the same style and layout, as well as same language style as the source sites, to produce a general impression, and to reach a better corporate communication effect. When you are translating, you need to know the corporate culture, product and services , and the management idea and also it’s history. Only on that basis can we deliver exactly the same information as the need.
In the other hand, variation is also necessary. You must adapt your words to the local customs. Using the wrong language for the wrong reader in your localization project will lead to a misunderstanding of the site or company. So, one must analyze the style of the language and the target audience. If the audience is business personnel, the vocabulary, grammar and punctuation must reflect this. If the audience is informal or youth orientated then a more relaxed language must used. Using the wrong language for the wrong reader in your localization project will lead to a misunderstanding of the site or company.
SO, both consistency and variation are important when it comes to website localization. It’s a measure that we have to take seriously, to make improve its readability.
Be linguistically and culturally sensitive
Ensures the website Korean Translation Services is translated in an appropriate way both linguistically and culturally. Vocabulary, grammar, punctuation, style, and level of speech are considered to make sure the language used reflects the target audience’s culture and society.
One must analyse the style of the language and the target audience. If the audience is foreign business personnel, the vocabulary, grammar and punctuation must reflect this. If the audience is informal or youth orientated then a more relaxed language must used.
So it is important for those who are not very familiar with their target culture to make some preparations before translating, like asking for an opinion from a native, or looking for some related information. Seemingly innocent words and phrases could be misunderstood by another culture. If you use terminology that is only understood in your region or culture, the best case you can hope for is that a visitor to your site just won’t understand and will ignore it, but it really reduces your credibility and the overall enjoyment of visiting your site.

Tokelau language
Tokelau is a Polynesian language closely related to Tuvaluan. It is spoken by about 1,500 people on the atolls of Tokelau, and by the few inhabitants of Swains Island in neighboring American Samoa. It is a member of the Samoic family of Polynesian languages. It is the official language of Tokelau. In addition to the population of Tokelau, it is spoken by approximately 2,900 Tokelau expatriates in Chinese To English Translation.Tokelau Phrases
| English | Tokelau |
| My grandmother lives in Nukunonu. | Ko toku nena e i Nukunonu. |
| Hello, how are you? | Malo ni, ea mai koe? |
| Welcome | taloha |
| Happy birthday | manuia to aho fanau |
| Happy New year | manuia te Tauhaga Fou |
Tokelau Introduction
Tokelau is a territory of New Zealand that consists of three tropical coral atolls with a combined land area of 10 km2 and a population of approximately 1,400 in the South Pacific Ocean. The atolls lie north of the Samoan Islands, east of Tuvalu, south of the Phoenix Islands, southwest of the more distant Line Islands and northwest of the Cook Islands.
Culture & Society
To some extent the inhabitants retain cultural ties with Samoa but there are also strong links with Tuvalu where the culture is also distinctly moulded by the atoll environment. There are also English Translation Services and family ties with both countries. Faka-Tokelau, the Tokelau way of life, is centred on family and community. There is a complex social and economic order based on the values of community and sharing which remains strong despite the pressure of external influences. Village affairs are conducted by a council of elders consisting of representatives of the families.
Tokelaus are citizens of New Zealand which gives them free right of access to that country. In the 1960s and early 1970s the New Zealand Government operated the Tokelau Resettlement Scheme to overcome crowding on the atolls. Many families migrated to New Zealand and later sponsored others who wanted to emigrate. The scheme was suspended in 1976 when the population stabilised. Currently some 3000 Tokelaus live in New Zealand; other small communities can be found in Samoa, American Samoa and Hawai’i.
Some Obstacle in Translation
While we Chinese learn English for many years, we still have some obstacle in
translation, especially for professional translation such as technical
translation and financial translation. Some problems provided in following text
are common problems when we translate English to Chinese.
There are several harsh criteria for translators when translating. One of them is the usage of punctuation, which is the first obstacle for me. First thing to know is the different usage between Chinese punctuation and English punctuation. Usually, Chinese punctuation occupies two bytes compared with one byte for English punctuation. Also, there is no space between character and punctuation for Chinese, but there is a space when an English Translation Services punctuation followed by a word, to which we should pay attention especially.
Another problem is that we ignore the Chinese expression habits because of literal translation. There are several typical examples to explain the phenomenon.
He showered her with kindness and words of praise until she consented to be his wife. The word “shower”, in the sentence, cannot be translated as “to rain in showers” or “pour down in showers”, and the real meaning is “to shower with praise”.
I will teach him to deceive others. Some translators translate it as “I teach him to learn how to Chinese To English Translation”, which, actually, is the wrong translation, with the opposite meaning when comparing with the real meaning. In fact, the author means “I will punish him so that he will not deceive others again”.
She can speak English after a fashion. “After a fashion”, in this sentence, does not mean “come into fashion or be in fashion”, which, actually, means “not very well or a little”.
His skills in use of colours is so great that some who views the paintings he created said they were more true to life than life itself. “Great”, in this sentence, does not mean “of remarkable ability of quality”. According to the context, it means “skillful at”.
In California, hundreds of billions of dollars ride on the success of earthquake prediction. The word “ride on”, in the sentence, does not mean “ride some vehicles”, which, really, does not make sense here. Its real meaning, in here, is that “rely on”, which makes the sentence fluent.
The readers of translation, from English to Chinese, are Chinese clients. They will be confused when reading the literal translation, such as the above examples. Therefore, a good translation is making readers know what the original article means. We should learn further and practice more to master the translation, which make the reader comfortable.

Numbers Translation
Four holds a curiously ambivalent place in Chinese cultures. It's a multiple
of the number two, and two by two is a sequence for which Chinese people have a
high regard. There are numerous auspicious examples of the use of the number
four in Chinese society.
In terms of schools of thought and places of learning, there are the four classic books: The Analects of Confucius, Mencius, The Doctrine of the Arabic Translation Service, The Great Learning. There are four essentials of the ritual doctrine, being moral etiquette, righteousness, frugality and humility. On a more elemental level there are the four directions on north, south, east and west, and the four season, spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Buddhism has the four holy mountains of Mt Wutai, Mt Jiuhua, Mt E'mei, and Mt Putuo.
In artistic culture, the four plants of bamboo, orchid, plum, and chrysanthemum represent a cultured personality and conduct in Chinese paintings. There are four styles of brush calligraphy, being regular script, cursive script, official script and seal script. In Peking Opera there are four celebrated female roles played by male singers, Mei Lanfang, Cheng Yanqiu, Shang Xiaoyun, and Xu Huisheng.
Even medicine makes an appearance with the four traditional steps to assess health: observe, listen, question and check a patient's pulse. And last but not least, most Chinese idioms are comprised for four characters.
On the other hand, in Chinese, four, pronounced si, sounds similar to(si, death). As a result, people are reluctant to include four on car number plates or in telephone numbers. This reluctance originated in Guangdong and its surrounding areas, and has now spread to many places in China.
Six is a very lucky number for Chinese people.which literally means six and six, lucky and smooth. Due to the belief that six is associated with smoothness, 66,666, 6666 are favorite numbers for Chinese people. Similar to three and four, six denotes various things. The cosmos has six dimensions: heaven, earth, the east, the west, the south, the north, the upper and the lower. Nature is thought to have six types of mood: overcast, sunny, windy, rainy, dim and bright. People have six passions: happiness, anger, sadness, joy, love and hated. There are six farm animals : horse, ox, sheep, chicken, dog and pig.
In terms of family, a person traditionally has six classics include The Book of Songs, The Book of History, The Book of Rites, The Book of Music, The Book of Changes, plus The Spring and Autumn Annals. Chinese medicine believes there are six excesses shown in syndromes caused by wind, cold, summer heat, dampness, dryness and internal heat. There are also many idioms and expressions with the character for six.
In western countries, six is related to different cultural ideas and has evil implications. Ronald Reagan's house number was 666 before Nancy changed it to 668. On the contrary, number seven is considered a holy number in the west and seen as lucky seven. In Bible, there are many special sevens: the Christian concept of creation of the world as related in Genesis in six days, and day seven is for rest. Pharaoh's dream was a prediction of seven good harvest years to be followed by seven years of famine. The Lord spoke to Moses that the field to be sown in six years and the seventh is the Sabbatical year. Every 49 years, seven by seven, the Jews will celebrate the Year of Jubilee.

In seven days comes his return. There will be advantage in whatever direction movement is made.”There are also seven in many things, such as seven holes, mouth, eyes, ears and nostrils; seven colors, red, orange, yellow, green, azure, blue, purple; seven types of prescriptions in Chinese medicine, major, minor, mild, emergency, odd, even and compound.

work in China, and many people want to improve their English skill in order to
be more successful in their career life. Here, I want to give some advice which
I call plan ABC to those who want to enhance their English skills.
Plan A—reading an English novel It’s more difficult than expected to read an English novel. In fact, for English reading, the easiest one is reading specialized article; news reading follows while novel reading is the most difficult one, the rank of which must be surprising to many people. When reading novels, there are some key points you must bear in mind. At first, the novel you choose must be suitable for your English ability, neither too difficulty nor too easy. If your English is pretty good, I strongly recommend that you read an original English novels while if your English is not so good, you can read a bilingual text. Secondly, take notes when reading. You can write down the beautiful sentences in the book and review them from time to time, which will be of great help for your Korean Translation Services writing!
Plan B—taking part in an English test. You can prepare yourselves for an authorized English test, such as IELTS, TOEFL. The process of preparing these tests will make your English improved by leaps and bounds. I will give some advice for this kind of test preparation. A) Vocabulary. Buy a good book for vocabulary. Most of the students are bored with vocabulary learning. Choose a nice book which is attractive so you will be always interested in it. Moreover, in the vocabulary book, the words should have phonetic symbols which help you to pronounce the words. Listen to the MP3 when learning the words is also extremely important! B) Speaking. Find a partner to practice your English. A native is preferred, if possible. Record your voice when speaking English, which will be helpful to find your incorrect pronunciation. Besides, read magazine and newspaper both of which will enrich your topic since you will know more about the current events. C) Reading. It’s suggested that you should often visit some famous foreign websites such as Arabic Translation Service and so on. Articles on these websites are very genius and native. One passage per day for reading is enough to improve your reading ability if you can persist for a long time! D) Writing. Writing is closely related to reading. If you read a lot and make your reading ability improved, your writing ability will improve a lot, too. But you need to pay great attention to the following: take notes so you can learn beautiful words and sentences; write something every day, regardless of the topic. E) Listening. If your English listening ability is a little poor, you can turn to two websites for help.Both are very famous for their English listening training. After a period of training and practice, you can listen to some more professional materials such as talk shows. English learning calls for your persistency and patience. Therefore, you need learn every day for a long time. Remember, it’s always true to English learners that practice makes perfect!
Plan C—watching classic films Some films are very classic and famous because of the dialogues, Such as Godfather, Pretty Woman, Notting Hill and so on. For a good film, the plot is very attractive and audience will surely enjoy it. In a word, watch them and learn from them.
The above is my suggestion to make a good plan to learn English. If you have any better advice, please do not hesitate to let me know!

How to find high-quality translators in Elance
As a professional localized translation company, we need to find native language speakers for our translation jobs. And we have to reserve translators of native speakers of different languages in our resource database.
When we have a project of Korean Translation Services, first we try to contact translators in our resource database, but for some reasons like didn’t check mail timely, can’t connect with internet because of vacations, translators sometimes can’t take the job within the time you are given. Or sometimes, we may have no translators of this language reserved in our resource database. If this situation emerges, we need to go to some recruitment websites like elance, odesk and proz, to issue translators needed Ads. Always several hours after you issue this Ad, bidders on these websites will bid on your job. Some jobs like English to Japanese, there are always dozens of bidders want to get your job. This is for a common language. But for rare language like Samoan, there are rare bidders bid on it. When seeing this, you will go to find bidders to bid on your job. Actually there are ways to find high-quality translators. Here elance will be taken an example.
First, after you sign in elance and issue a project, a page like the screenshot will come out. Here “overview” talks about the outline of the project. We need to use the function of “invite” to find more bidders.
“Project Summary” include all the description and detail info of your project and also skills needed for bidders.
“ Public Messages” is for the messages given by our bidder; “ Attachments” is the file attached for the project; “Team” shows your info as a job provider, you are a person or a team; “Settings” includes “Bidding Settings” which shows whether bidders can communicate with you via messages, and if you want to extend, cancel or end your project, you can make it through this column. “Payment settings” is about the method you use to pay bidder, we always use paypal for that.
Let’s go back to the “ Overview” to “invite”.
This menu can help us invite some high-quality translator to bid on your project. “Invite” includes two columns, “Invite Elance Providers” and “Invite Other Providers”. Here we just need to invite Elance providers, so we click on this button.
If you have reserved some high-quality translators in your Elance resource database, you can enter the translators’ user names, then you can send your invitation by click the button of “Send Invest”. If you haven’t reserved translators you need, you can click the button of “Go to Provider Search” to search and choose translators.
In “Search Contractors”, you enter “Samoan”, and choose “Writing & Translation” in the left “Provider Category”. Then come to the “Location” part. Since Samoan is a rare language usually spoken by the people in America, so we can make limitations on translators’ location like “North America”. In the “Feedback”, we choose translators with 4 or 5 stars. After all these screening procedures, we can reject some translators who don’t match with our requirements. It can save us a lot of time in browsing translators’ CVs or job history.
Click on the user’s name, a new website page comes, and there are several points we need to check on this page. This is very important for our judgment on whether this user is a high-quality one or not.
First, “Last Sign-in” shows the time provider last sign in, the closer the date is, the more active the provider is in Elance. If someone doesn’t sign in during the last ten or fifteen days, then we may make no consideration him.
Second, the parameters of “ Skills”.
These are the results of self-tests taken by providers, this can be an important reference to whether we should choose him or her or not. If his or her scores are much higher than the average level, then he or she will be chosen to invite.
Third, look at “Job History”, look at the feedback of provider’s recent projects, if there is no negative comment on him or her, then this provider can be counted in.
The providers pass the screening procedures, can be invited through click the button of “Contact or Post a Job”.
Choose the project name, click “Continue”, and your invitation is sent to this provider. The following job is about the reply.
The procedure of sending invitations is over, and the following is how to pick the high-quality bidders. Some jobs like English to Japanese, there are always dozens of bidders want to get your job. When seeing this, you will hesitate on which bidder to choose. Actually, you can make your final decision through comparing the following aspects.
First, check whether the bidder is Japanese native speaker. Since some bidders from other countries may bid on the project as well, we can ask them directly or pay attention to their samples attached.
Second, make comparison on the bidding rate. Some bidding rates are very wide of the mark, too high or too low. If the rate is too high, we can’t afford this bidder because of the limitation of budge. If the rate is too low, we just don’t have the nerve to hire this bidder, because there is always a saying goes that you will get what you pay for.
Third, check the time the bidder can finish the project. Some bidders said they can get this job done within a very short time. And we need to “look before we leap” on this situation, because this bidder usually use some machine translation in this job, like Google translation, which may directly lower the translation quality.
Finally, after all these aspects are checked, there are several candidates left for further communication. We need to make these candidates clear on our job requirements and schedule.
After all these are confirmed, we can assign the job to them. If the feedback is good after they finish the job, we can enter them into our resource database for further cooperation.
Quotation Of Transcription
Question: Please advise whether CCJK can handle any voice over and transcription work. I have 24 (1-hour) videos of medical lectures. Please advise your cost to transcribe & translate 24 (1-hour) videos and then to provide the voice-over into Mandarin. I can obtain the videos in any format needed.
Answer: We at CCJK have done a lot of voiceover and Korean Translation Services work.
We usually charge an hourly rate for transcription. Based on industry production standards guidelines published by Office Business Center Association International (www.obcai.org), the general rule is that it takes one to two hours to transcribe 15 minutes of recorded audio. Of course, a lot will depend on the quality of the voices, technical content, accents, and if the video is to be transcribed verbatim vs. paraphrased. A straightforward, one-voice video will take much less time than a highly technical focus group with poor audio and accented speakers.
As for the rates for voice over, you can find a useful reference from this professional Arabic Translation Service for voiceover talent
Based on the above estimation, please find below the cost for transcription, translation and voiceover:
Transcription for one hour video: 120 USD (6 hours work at hourly rate 20 USD with an average 1:6 minute rate)
Translation for one hour video: 480 USD (6000 words at per word rate 0.08USD)
Voiceover for one hour hwp file: 300 USD (This is the average rate what we charge our other clients)
Reference:
Robert Brenner (www.brennerbooks.com), known as the “pricing guru” in many circles, conducted an industry survey a year or so ago, the results of which are published in a special report, “A Comprehensive Survey of the Business Support Services Industry.” For general transcription, participants of the survey charge $15 to $75 per hour. The average is about $30 an hour. (Legal and medical transcription rates came in at slightly higher rates.) Of the respondents that charge by the page, they charge anywhere from $2.75 to $14.00 per page. The average charge is about $7.50 per page.

Cultural Turn Of Translation Studies
Since a culture is subject to constant changes and the existence of cultural factors has preceded many misunderstandings and reconstitutions, a Arabic Translation Service is irredeemably partial in the interpretation and representation. Besides, a translator need not necessarily “surrender” to the rhetoricity of the foreign text in that he or she is inevitably influenced with his or her personal capacity, habits, beliefs, interest, values, and etc. The conventional linguistics-centered controversy about freedom and fidelity is therefore subject to many criticisms.
The last two decades have witnessed flourishing translation studies, with more and more awareness of the relevance of linguistics, philosophy, psychology, aesthetics, archaeology, literary criticism, anthropology and so on with translation studies and practices, the scopes of translation studies are widened with more in-depth perception of the nature and patterns of Korean Translation Services translation activities. Correspondingly, sociocultural factors are taken into account in translation studies. The cultural oriented translation studies, which focus on the external elements influencing translation process, have provided a firm theoretical basis for current study.
Researches on Translation Ethics
With traditional prescriptive translation studies going out of date, there appears the necessity to explore translations cross cultures and disciplines. Correspondingly, researches on ethics in translation become a trend.
More explicitly, increasing concerns about ethics in hwp file translation can be ascribed to the following major factors. Firstly, ethical researches may contribute to more considerations about cultural roles a translator plays for the development of his or her native group and intercultural interaction in a globalized era. Secondly, cultural turn of translation studies brings about more emphasis on and respect to a translator’s freedom and right, but overdue subjectivity can engender patchwork, mistranslation and plagiarism. As a consequence, ethical topics about the plausibility of a translator’s activity are involved. Thirdly, a translator alone does not complete a translation process. He or she is economically, politically and linguistically relevant with other subjects. Therefore translation activities need to be properly realized with responsible cooperation with subjects, hence the necessity to study translation ethics.
We should not hesitate to acknowledge that the current study has benefited a lot from former and current researches on translation ethics, though there exist remarkable differences between intercultural ethics and other ethics.

Translation Memory Server Guide
SDL Trados TM Server
SDL Trados TM Server is the classic client/server implementation of the SDL Trados translation memory solution. It allows you to create server-based translation memories where all data is stored on a remote database server in your network environment. This contrasts with Arabic Translation Service memories, where data is stored in a group of files on your system.
The hub of the system is the TM Server middleware component. TM Server is responsible for all communication between the Translator’s Workbench and SDL Trados Server Manager clients and the database server where translation memories are stored.
Working with Server-based Translation Memories in Trados 2007
SDL Trados TM Server, SDL GXT and SDL TeamWorks are specialised systems, designed to meet the requirements of multi-user groups. In each of these systems, Translator’s Workbench acts as the main translation memory interface for both file- and server-based translation memories.
The procedure for accessing a server-based translation memory from Translator’s Workbench involves the following stages:
- Using the Connect command
- Adding a TM Server to Translator’s Workbench, using the Add TM Server Wizard
- Logging in to TM Server
- Selecting a translation memory.
Notes:
If the TM Server you wish to access is already known to Translator’s hwp file Workbench, not all of the stages in this procedure will be relevant. In this case, use the TM Servers dialog box to work with existing TM Server settings.
The information in this help system refers primarily to the use of server-based translation memories in the SDL Trados TM Server environment. If you are working with SDL GXT or SDL TeamWorks, procedures may vary slightly.
How to Access the Server-Based Translation Memory in Trados 2009
- Open the Project Package in SDL Trados Studio 2009
- Click on the Files view and open the file to be translated
- You will be prompted to enter your User name and Password. Enter your details and click OK
- The file should now open as normal with the translation memory window active at the top of the screen. Please note that you will be provided with two translation memories: the server-based project TM, which will be updated as you confirm each segment; and the server-based Master TM, which can be used to perform concordance searches
- Translate the file as per a normal project
- As you confirm each segment, this will automatically be cleaned into the server-based project TM, and will be accessible to other translators working on the same project
- When the translation is complete, create a Return Package as normal
- The translation memory is updated in real time and can be accessed by all translators working on the same project simultaneously. This will result in a more consistent final translation and it will speed up the translation process as re-use from the TM will increase
- Project Packages will be much smaller and quicker to download, as a physical translation memory will no longer be sent. An internet connection is simply required through the project and only relevant data is transferred
