Translation quality evaluation
Translation quality evaluation has been a particular area of study for Geoffrey Kingscott for some years, and he has given a number of conference papers on this topic. In 2004 a major article for the web-based magazine Globalization Insider provided a comprehensive overview of the whole field of translation quality evaluation, ranging from Latin authors to software systems, and from the academic approach in university translation studies to metrics-based processes such as that used in the modern automotive industry. He has recently contributed an article: An approach to translation quality assessment to the Language International website www.language-international.net. The Leipzig University 2007 publication Translationsqualität, a collection of papers (mainly in German) edited by Peter Schmitt and Heike E. Jüngst, has a contribution (in English) by Geoffrey Kingscott on Translation Quality Assessment. Geoffrey Kingscott Consultants Limited will be glad to advise on the establishment of systems for the evaluation of translations.
