초록

This paper attempts to predict how language technologies, such as machine translation and the crowd-sourcing platform, will affect the T&I industry in the future. To this end, it analyzed the T&I services offered by the world’s top 20 language service providers (LSPs) and drew the following conclusions. First, translation services of global LSPs are 100% post-edited machine translation, not human translation, and are offered at varying qualities and different prices depending on clients’ needs. Second, global LSPs provide all-round translation services, which range from writing of source texts to testing of the multimedia loaded with target texts. Third, the LSPs offer value added services by converging T&I with relevant fields, such as T&I education, global marketing, etc. The implications on the T&I industry are: The market segments that require relatively lower T&I skills are growing; Language technologies pose no threats to professional T&I service providers, but offer new research tools; The increase in the demand for T&I services will outpace the fall in prices resulted from the use of language technologies.

Abstract

This paper attempts to predict how language technologies, such as machine translation and the crowd-sourcing platform, will affect the T&I industry in the future. To this end, it analyzed the T&I services offered by the world’s top 20 language service providers (LSPs) and drew the following conclusions. First, translation services of global LSPs are 100% post-edited machine translation, not human translation, and are offered at varying qualities and different prices depending on clients’ needs. Second, global LSPs provide all-round translation services, which range from writing of source texts to testing of the multimedia loaded with target texts. Third, the LSPs offer value added services by converging T&I with relevant fields, such as T&I education, global marketing, etc. The implications on the T&I industry are: The market segments that require relatively lower T&I skills are growing; Language technologies pose no threats to professional T&I service providers, but offer new research tools; The increase in the demand for T&I services will outpace the fall in prices resulted from the use of language technologies.
