Software Localization
What does it mean?
Software localization is the process of translating the text and adjusting the functional elements of any software application to the linguistic, cultural and technical requirements of a market, so as to make it relevant, useful, and appropriate for consumers internationally.
Why is it useful?
Software localization is beneficial for both developers and customers. Localization allows users to interact with software in their own language via an intuitive configuration for them.
Every country and culture differs and the software should look and feel native to each, so as to allow them to use the software with ease. It needs to accommodate their local holidays, date formats, time formats, and so on. It should also reflect the customer. For example, an image of an African-American family might not be appropriate for a home page image for a web portal in China.
Though the changes may seem minor, but, these have an influence on the final result. More competent and efficient users automatically translate into fewer costs for support and customer services.
How does it work?
Mindlingua follows a 3-step process for all its translations
- Step 1: The document is assigned to a translator well-versed in both the source language and the target language
- Step 2: A second translator edits the translation and checks it for language-related nuances and details
- Step 3: The document is reviewed and proofread, after which it is formatted, ready for delivery to the client
