But it doesn’t check source consistency 16:54 Apr 8, 2014 Daniel Benito: 1130548 All Déjà Vu can check whether the translation includes the appropriate translations for specific terms in the source. 16:54 Apr 8, 2014 Daniel Benito: 1130548 All But there is no way it can check that the source is correct. Only a human can do that. 16:55 Apr 8, 2014 Daniel Benito: 1130548 All Can you be more specific about the kinds of errors you think it could spot in the source? What kind of inconsistencies? 16:56 Apr 8, 2014 Hanaamohamed: 1136024 All consistency in general 16:57 Apr 8, 2014 Daniel Benito: 1130548 All I'm afraid that is a task that can only be accomplished by a human. There is no way we can tell if the source text is using the right words or not. 16:57 Apr 8, 2014 Daniel Benito: 1130548 All Even modern grammar checkers, such as the one in Word, can barely tell if a sentence is grammatically correct. 16:58 Apr 8, 2014 Daniel Benito: 1130548 All Determining whether terminology or certain grammatical structures are used consistently is currently beyond the reach of computers, I'm afraid. 16:58 Apr 8, 2014 Daniel Benito: 1130548 All Unless we're misunderstanding what you're asking. 17:06 Apr 8, 2014 Blandine-ATRIL: 1459982 All Hi, we are approaching the end of this day. 17:07 Apr 8, 2014 Blandine-ATRIL: 1459982 All We'll be closing the chat in a few minutes, if you have a last message to send do not hesitate! 17:08 Apr 8, 2014 Blandine-ATRIL: 1459982 All Also, we are always available to answer you on contact@atril.com 17:12 Apr 8, 2014 Blandine-ATRIL: 1459982 All Thanks to all the participants, visitors and organizers of the event!
