Translation in the Era of Technological Tools
Journal Title: In Translation / في الترجمة - Year 2022, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
Translation is a human activity that dates back to the dawn of time. Indeed, it was already essential for the first peoples speaking different languages to ensure permanent and effective interaction. Today, it has not only become ubiquitous but has evolved to appear in a new way. Thanks to technological development, particularly in the field of IT, translation has been able to take advantage from certain functionalities capable of optimizing the act of translation and easing along the way the translator’s task. The latter finds himself/herself, unlike his fellows of past centuries, well "armed" for providing his/her services. The weapons are none other than technological tools that abound, day after day, to the great dismay of the translator, who no longer knows which tool to turn to! Thence, we found useful to review the main tools that may help translators to speed up the translation process and improve the quality of the final product.
