Adapt It
|
Adapt It is an application that translates or adapts source text documents into target or translated text. This process depends on the knowledge of the human translator in understanding both languages.
Adapt It maintains a Knowledge Base which stores word and phrase adaptations that can be automatically inserted into the target text, thus speeding the translation process.
Adapt It uses plain text (txt) files for input and expects the use of Unified Standard Format Markers (USFM) in the input file. The translated text can be exported as a USFM text file or a Rich Text format file.
What tasks is Adapt It WX well suited to?
1. Adapting an existing text or translation done in a related language, or dialect.
2. Back translating a translation for checking by a translation consultant; whether or not the translation was produced by Adapt It.
3. Glossing text.
4. Producing interlinear exegetical helps for national translators, using the Greek NT or Hebrew OT as the source text.
5. Producing formatted RTF documents according to the Word Scripture Template standard, for printing in a publishable format in a word processor application such as MS Word or OpenOffice.
6. Producing glossed documents, the glossing having been done in a national language that national translators can read, ready for adapting into a related language; for cluster translation project support.
7. The Adapt It Unicode application does all the above too, but it does so only using Unicode encodings and fonts.
