最近有一位顾问问我,顾问是否可以在被要求做最终检查的项目上运行逐词对照(interlinear)流程,以便查看词语的含义和形态?
问题在于,当回译(back-translation)比较“自由”,或者用 LWC 术语来翻译圣经术语(例如“先知”或“天使”),而不是更逐字逐句的“传达上帝信息的人”时,回译就无法仔细区分该术语是如何被翻译的。
我怀疑逐词对照流程与项目集成得太紧密,以至于顾问无法在类似“草稿本”的空间中对一两个经文运行该流程,仅仅为了查看经文片段的意思。我这样理解对吗?(这似乎会是一个非常实用的功能。)
A consultant recently asked me if a consultant can run the interlinear process on projects they are asked do the final check for, in order to view the meaning of words and morphology?
The problem comes up when the back-translation is fairly “free” or translates Biblical term renderings with the LWC term, like “prophet” or “angel” rather than the more word-for-word “a person who brings God’s message”, and so the BT does not carefully distinguish how the term is being rendered.
I suspect that the interlinear process is too tightly integrated into the project to allow a consultant to run the process on a verse or two in a “scratchpad” kind of space, just to see what the verse bits mean. Am I right? (It seems this would be a very useful capability.)
