一位顧問最近問我,顧問是否可以對他們被要求進行最終檢查的專案執行逐字對照(interlinear)流程,以便查看單詞的含義和形態?
問題出在回譯(back-translation)相當「自由」,或者使用 LWC 術語來翻譯聖經術語,例如「先知」或「天使」,而不是更逐字逐句的「傳遞上帝信息的人」,因此回譯並未仔細區分該術語是如何被翻譯的。
我懷疑逐字對照流程與專案結合得太緊密,無法讓顧問在類似「草稿本」的空間中對一兩節經文執行該流程,僅僅是為了看看經文片段的含義。我對嗎?(這似乎會是一個非常有用的功能。)
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.)
