When done by machines, increasingly more prevalent translation software, or in a machine-like manner, translation can be a really great and lucrative craft, but good and reliable translation, which is so sought after by serious customers, is more of a creative, artistic, and expressive process.
The translator’s biggest challenge is to create a work that will retain, to the fullest possible extent and for the benefit of the end user, an original’s dynamic and intellectual potential, including all emotional, thematic, cultural, and linguistic facets, while making a new rendering of the work easily accessible to readers of the target language.
A good translator is expected to bring their own experience, expertise, and personality to every translation, transcreation, or proofing job they do. Once they get past the algorithmic aspect of translation, they enter a realm where proper word choice, grammatical, logical, and lexical interpretation, and the infusion of tone, register, and style can completely transform a text from one meaning to another, even if the words themselves remain similar.
