Abstract
A translation support apparatus manages a series of processes related to a translation work of an original text and a proofreading work of a translation. A payable translation fee may be calculated by subtracting a reduction fee calculated based on a proofread record and a reduction fee table from a prescribed translation fee calculated based on the translation and a prescribed translation fee table.
Claims14
A translation support apparatus connectable to a translator terminal and a proofreader terminal via a network, and configured to manage a series of processes related to a translation work of an original text that is a translation target into a translation in a predetermined language and a proofreading work of the translation, said translation support apparatus comprising:
- a storage unit configured to store translations from the translator terminal, a prescribed translation fee table of prescribed translation fees calculated depending on the translations, and a reduction fee table of reduction fees to be deducted depending on proofread contents of the translation;
- a screen generating unit configured to generate a proofreading screen including the translation to be proofread;
- a communication unit configured to send the proofreading screen to the proofreader terminal, and to receive a proofread translation and a proofread record recorded with the proofread contents of a proofread translation from the proofreader terminal via the proofreading screen;
- and
- a calculating unit configured to calculate a payable translation fee by subtracting a reduction fee calculated based on the proofread record and the reduction fee table from a prescribed translation fee calculated based on the translation from the translation terminal and the prescribed translation fee table.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium which stores a program which, when executed by a computer that is connectable to a translator terminal and a proofreader terminal via a network, causes the computer to perform a process related to a translation work of an original text that is a translation target into a translation in a predetermined language and a proofreading work of the translation, said process comprising:
- a storage procedure causing the computer to store, in a storage unit, translations from the translator terminal, a prescribed translation fee table of prescribed translation fees calculated depending on the translations, and a reduction fee table of reduction fees to be deducted depending on proofread contents of the translation;
- a screen generating procedure causing the computer to generate a proofreading screen including the translation to be proofread;
- a communication procedure causing the computer to send the proofreading screen to the proofreader terminal, and to receive a proofread translation and a proofread record recorded with the proofread contents of a proofread translation from the proofreader terminal via the proofreading screen;
- and
- a calculating procedure causing the computer to calculate a payable translation fee by subtracting a reduction fee calculated based on the proofread record and the reduction fee table from a prescribed translation fee calculated based on the translation from the translation terminal and the prescribed translation fee table.
A translation support apparatus comprising:
- a translation memory group including a plurality of translation memories classified for each kind of document and configured to store translations in a related manner to corresponding texts;
- a search unit configured to search within the translation memory group to find a text matching an original text that is a translation target;
- a storage unit configured to store search destination translation memory information prescribing the translation memories to be searched within the translation memory group depending on the kind of document of the original text;
- and
- a conversion generating unit configured to acquire a translation stored in the translation memory group in a related manner to the text searched by the search unit, and to generate a reused translation by converting the original text into the translation,
- wherein the search unit searches two or more translation memories within the translation memory group based on the search destination translation memory information.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium which stores a program which, when executed by a computer, causes the computer to perform a translation support process using a translation memory group including a plurality of translation memories classified for each kind of document and configured to store translations in a related manner to corresponding texts, said translation support process comprising:
- a search procedure causing the computer to search within the translation memory group to find a text matching an original text that is a translation target;
- a storage procedure causing the computer to store, in a storage unit, search destination translation memory information prescribing the translation memories to be searched within the translation memory group depending on the kind of document of the original text;
- and
- a conversion generating procedure causing the computer to acquire a translation stored in the translation memory group in a related manner to the text searched by the search procedure, and to generate a reused translation by converting the original text into the translation,
- wherein the search procedure causes the computer to search two or more translation memories within the translation memory group based on the search destination translation memory information.
