Use Machine Translation to accelerate your translation process 🚀

Using #MT can increase the #productivity of your #translator and save time. When combined with appropriate #translation tools, it can also help improve the quality of translations for you.

However, its important to remember that #tech is a tool that can reduce your effort, but not eliminate it entirely. For example, a car or an airplane can help you reach your destination faster, but you still need to drive or fly it.

#MoxVeda – Adding a new language to your website was never easier
By @rk_process9
I often encounter concerns from my clients and prospects about the challenges of delivering their #website and mobile #apps in multiple #languages, to be able to reach out to more #customers .

Many express that it takes a lot of effort, dedicated manpower, knowledge of multiple languages, a reliable #translationagency, management of #translation processes, and much more.

The translators of some the best books I have read. On this World Book Day, this a thank you note from me to them.This one is inspired after listening to brilliant podcast by @amitvarma with @arunava on the art of translation - seenunseen.in/episodes/2020/… ##books #translations
