Translations & Services Glossary

This translations glossary offers definitions of some of the technical phraseology used in Total Language Solutions translations sector.

S

SGML

Standard page

A standard page is a unit of measurement for translation services by some companies and agencies: it is deemed to be 300 words in English in 10 / 12 point font size. This method is not accurate as documents in the form of a letter, tables of information, opening and closing chapters, also graphics not to mention the font size all create variances from the perceived norm. The qwerty word process of Total Language Solutions does not use this method: the qwerty word process calculates the exact number of words and the "match rate" so that a precise quote can be presented to the client prior to the commencement of the project.

Systran

SYSTRAN is machine translation software that will quickly translate emails, Web pages, letters, or any written text. The accuracy level is generally low, unless used on carefully prepared text.
