Importance of editing during the translation process

As with all types of human products and services, translation is also a process prone to errors. To reduce such translation errors and increase consistency, we use computer-aided translation tools and create termbases. However, since language is an organic means of communication, spelling errors and ambiguities can still occur after a long and extensive translation process.

Editing is an area of expertise that, unlike technical spell checking, requires a skilled command of the language and is an indispensable prerequisite for a high-quality translation process.

Professional editing services

With our quality-oriented service policy, we offer cost-effective editing solutions through our network of over 2500 experienced translators and editors in all languages.

Texts translated by competent translators who have experience in your industry are given to experienced and trained editors for editing and reviewing. Our editors go through the target text to correct any issues with consistency and grammar and perform dictionary and style guide checks.

Your questions

What is editing?

Editing is the phase that follows the translation step. Once a document is translated by a translator, it is then reviewed by an editor against any possible mistranslations, missing translations, terminology errors, inconsistencies in style and translations etc. In editing phase, an editor performs a bilingual review by comparing the source text against its translation.

What is review?

Review is the process of controlling and checking the accuracy and correctness of a translation by a second translator or editor once the translation step is complete. It is an additional step followed by translation and usually has the same ultimate aim as with the editing step, improving the translation quality. The two terms are usually used interchangeably.

What is the purpose of editing or review?

The main target of editing or review is to ensure high quality translation which:
– is fully accurate and free from missing and incorrect translations.
– stylistically consistent.
– has no terminology errors or misspellings.

When should I use editing or review?

Editing or review steps are usually recommended for cases where high quality translation is needed. Even though a document is translated by a skilled and experienced translator, it is always possible that it might need some improvements to ensure high quality. That’s why editing is recommended for client-facing, business-critical documents and contents such as agreements, marketing materials, websites etc.
