Scientific translation revision

The importance of doing a review

A revision is an essential step in the translation process, because it is a tool that can guarantee the quality of a translation. There are several phases to a revision; the first being the revision of orthotypography, in which the spelling, accentuation, and punctuation is verified and complies with the rules of the target language; secondly, the revision of the style and syntax, because it is the translators job to translate concepts and ideas, not just words; lastly, we have the revision of terminology, quality, and content.

What is a Scientific translation revision?

While the translator can accomplish the first two phases of a revision, the third phase should be reviewed by an expert in scientific translation or by someone within the field of the scientific translation. This is how we can ensure consistency in the content and ensure the quality of the document. The scientific language is typically directed to specialists and has a very specific and precise terminology, for this reason, a revision becomes a necessary, if not recommendable, phase in a translation.
