Abstract: |
Given that translators, to meet today's increased multilingual communication needs, require a solid technological background, this chapter addresses aspects of technology that are inextricably linked to translation practice. In addition to machine translation, which was the first technological application (1949) in the field of translation, references are made to lexicographical and terminological applications with a translation focus. The basic software for translation reuse, i.e. translation memories, is presented. Particular attention is paid to the acquisition of specific technological skills and the presentation of methods that contribute to the development of translators' critical skills about the use of the Internet and the various translation tools. Finally, the methodological principles and technological characteristics of text corpora and a variety of specific software are presented.
