Terminology Management

By utilizing a well-maintained terminology database, translators can accurately convey the intended meaning of technical terms, jargon, or industry-specific terminology. This helps maintain clarity and avoids potential misunderstandings or ambiguity in the translated text.
 

Terminology management facilitates collaboration among translators and teams working on large-scale translation projects. It allows multiple translators to work on the same project while maintaining terminology coherence. It also enables scalability by providing a foundation for future translation projects and building a consistent terminology repository.

For example:

     orders come from different departments within an organization,
     the project is large, requiring multiple translators to work simultaneously on different sections of the documents
     certain terms can have different translations depending on the context and,
     additional challenges arise, such as inconsistencies between translation memories, glossaries, references, etc.

Consistency

Effective terminology management ensures consistent and accurate translation of specific terms and phrases throughout the project. Consistent terminology enhances the overall quality and professionalism of the translated content.

Cost efficiency

Terminology management streamlines the translation process by providing translators with readily available approved terms, glossaries, and reference materials. This minimizes research time, speeds up the translation process, and reduces the need for revisions, ultimately saving time and costs for both translators and clients.

Brand and Message Consistency

For organizations, consistent use of terminology ensures brand consistency across different languages and markets. It helps maintain a unified voice, reinforces brand identity, and ensures the accurate conveyance of brand-specific messages and values.
