Here's information and a script for converting regular expression libraries in the popular RegexBuddy app to the #memoQ Regex Assistant. Interoperability between these two solution management tools facilitates sharing among users of diverse #translation management platforms, external solution providers and more. Even current users of the Regex Assistant can benefit from using RegexBuddy for analysis and debugging of expressions for text search, find & replace and quality assurance, so a conversion tool like this can help with such processes.

Examples of changing bad currency into good in #translation.

These will work with any translation environment such as Trados Studio, Phrase or Wordfast capable of using regular expressions for Find & Replace. Also with other text processing programs that are regex-savvy.

There are many aspects of terminology application in the #memoQ #translation environment. It's much more than just term bases. For example, auto-translation rules can be made to convert structured information like dates, citations, numbers with units and currency expressions (see screenshot) into consistent target language formats that are preferred or specified by a style guide.

Join the free memoQ terminology skills workshops on February 20 & 27 and learn about auto-translation rules and many other ways to come to better terms with the world's best translation organization toolkit!

“Internal” fuzzy matches are text passages in a document or group of documents in a #translation or #localization project which are substantially alike in wording but which are not compared to records in translation memory databases. There are a number of ethical concerns when such internal matches are used to calculate the cost of translation work, but these concerns are particularly acute when a project involves multiple translators in the team.

Most of my #writing for education is intended for those already familiar to some extent with professional tools and tasks, particularly for commercial #translation work. But in this free webinar, I'm going back to basics, and examining what independent tools installed locally on our personal equipment offer, and why they still matter in the Online Age.

I'll talk mostly about two such software workspaces, one long familiar to me (memoQ) and another (Scrivener) quite new, and how I use them in my writing projects and translation work. And why these are the best options I've explored.

This talk is intended for experienced wordworkers who may ask why the "old" ways are still relevant, and for aspirants to the multilingual world of words who want a good start, apart from the too-frequent grind of linguistic sausage.

Feel free to share this post and help raise awareness of ways we can move toward better practice at the wordface.
