Computer Aided Translation State of the art in the USA and Canada

چکیده

Translation is a use of language. Like any such use, it may be performed intuitively or after specific training. Until our generation all translation had to be performed without the assistance of mechanical aids. Less than forty years ago several eminent scientists — non-linguists — proposed that the newly developed machine, labeled computer, might devote some of its capabilities to translation. That proposal by non-linguists may well have led to the notion that computerized translation is somehow more dependent on the understanding of computers and their workings than on the understanding of language. This notion must be totally rejected for an accurate view of computer aided translation (CAT), whether machine-aided or completely carried out by computer. Translation is today, as it always has been, a use of language. Success in that use depends on skills which in turn depend heavily on an accurate understanding of language.
