Overview

Freelance MTPE Translators for Galician

Deluxe is currently looking for post-editing translators who are highly proficient in post-editing and have the required key competencies to review work quality of post-edits as well as provide expertise to help improve the quality of MT.

Post-editing involves comparing the machine-generated translation to the source text and making necessary adjustments to ensure accuracy, fluency, and adherence to specific style or terminology requirements.

The expectation is that the outcome will be a text that is not only understandable but presented in a stylistically appropriate way. The quality is expected to be a “full post-edit” that flows well and is idiomatic. The mental process and the cognitive load of the task involved are completely different from translation.

The role of a post-editor combines that of a proofreader and a linguistic reviewer. The post-editor not only corrects spelling, grammar and punctuation issues, but also modifies machine-translated sentences that sound clunky, make use of incorrect terminology or relate an inaccurate concept.
