Localization: 



Localization is the process of adapting your content to a different target audience, usually a different country and linguistic community. It includes ensuring that content is converted in a culturally-sensitive way, providing the readership a comfortable level of familiarity. Content globalization makes your content available to a global audience and includes intercultural communication and cross-cultural sensitization.

The localization process can be of varying complexity. Localization includes translation but also includes much more.

Case Studies:

Banking Software

Banking software localization in Russian, Mandarin, Hebrew, Portuguese and Spanish

A leading information-technology company who provided banking software to leading banks in India and the English-speaking world decided to sell their product to Russia, China, Israel, Brazil and the rest of Latin America. We had the stupendous task of converting all banking interfaces of the software as well as the user manuals and online help guides. The project ran into hundreds of thousands of words of HTML, PDF, MSWord and excel documents containing technical content, meta data and labels.

The task involved a multi-pronged approach. Firstly, a terminology research team comprising banking experts from the translator fraternity was formed for each language. Secondly, team of expert translators was to be selected and hired while the core team studied the documents and created a glossary and style guide for their respective language. By the time the translation teams were formed, the project management team in consultation with the terminologists devised a process flow. Next, the teams of the various languages were introduced to each other and given a short orientation with regards to procedures, naming convention, document flow and version control. Tasks were assigned and translation production was undertaken in full speed reaching optimal production by week 2 of the project. The work of each translator was edited and sanitized by the terminologists who doubled as editors and reviewers.

The entire project across 5 languages and several hundred-thousand words in each language pair was completed in a record 10 weeks, hiring 10 translators and editors for each language. Not only were deadlines met, but also accolades were received from the client.

Operators Manuals
Operators manuals and training material translated from Japanese to Kannada, Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam

An automobiles company from Japan required its training and maintenance manuals translated for their local staff in India. The local audience spoke various South Indian languages. A project was commissioned to convert training material from Japanese into colloquially intelligible and yet adequately academic Kannada, Telugu, Tamil and Malayalam. The job consisted of around 20 text books, mainly technical maintenance documents, and a few other subjects such as safety, civics, geography and general science. The project spanned around 6-8 months and was completed with completely satisfaction of the client, albeit with occasional stumbling blocks because of lack of established terminology for scientific concepts in the regional languages. Terminological differences were negotiated resolved with the help of language advisors from the company as well as a pool of qualified linguists from our teams.

Today, the company boasts of a multilingual library and complete resources material in all south-Indian regional languages side by side with their Japanese resource books.

Abstraction & Summarization of Legal Agreements
Abstraction of lease agreements in Korean, Mandarin, Japanese, Russian, Ukrainian, French, German, Hungarian, Czech, Greek, Italian, Turkish, Arabic, Hebrew, Spanish and Portuguese

A global back office and outsourcing company outsourced the abstraction of lease agreements and related contracts. These contracts were available in various languages of Europe, Central Asia, East Asia and Latin America. Thousands of contracts for various economic regions needed to be summarised in English language and their data fed to a central database belonging to their clients.

The projects were executed with 99% accuracy with the help of legal experts, lawyers or legal translators from various countries and with efficient project management. Some of the languages became repeat and ongoing projects while others remained sporadic requests.

The central legal team in the project management team had the task of transferring knowledge procedures and the nuances of abstract templates to every new recruit for every language pair. Identification of the right linguist for the requirements was another decisive element for the success of the project. Projects in various languages continue to this day.

Patents and articles translation
Patents and articles translated from Chinese, Japanese, German, Korean and Russian to English.

A subsidiary manufacturing company wanted its patents and articles translated. Hundreds of scientific patents and articles for various economic regions needed to be translated in English language.
The projects are executed with 99% accuracy with the help of translators with legal and technical expertise and with efficient project management. Most language projects are a continue to be an ongoing project.

Professional Interpretation Services

How do you recognize a professional interpreting service? In addition to linguistic and translation scientific content and professionalization as an interpreter, practice-related interpreting exercises are the focus of the conference interpreting. The criteria for evaluating interpreting are divided into three groups: Presentation & Communication, Content, Language.

Localization Begins at Design Stage - WordPar International

Localization can be factored into the design stage. While creating an application, website or e-learning module, developers can keep certain localization points in mind to make the localization process simpler, more efficient, and cost-effective. Use Unicode-compliant Fonts Many languages have fonts that are not compatible with Unicode platforms. In the past, several developers have had to re-do their work because of this issue. The right font has to be identified AHEAD of the translation process and this must be specified and communicated to the translators at the start of the project. This issue is being resolved rapidly by making most fonts Unicode-compliant, but this should be verified to avoid rework and wastage. Provide for Text Expansion Developers must bear in mind that text size varies from language to language. For example, something said in English will require more space in German and lesser space in Mandarin. If the developers are aware of this and are sensitized to the ...
