我在注册表(Registry)中遇到了几个与回译项目相关的问题。这些项目并未基于母本翻译(mother translation)设置为回译项目类型,也就是说,它们拥有独立的注册信息。在某些情况下,UBS(Sharon P)会标记这些问题,因为系统显示该项目是(例如)英语或法语的“首次翻译”。(抱歉,那个位置已经被占用了…… )
回译配置的最佳实践是什么?如果从零开始,我假设将回译项目设置为母本翻译的子项目(daughter)是最佳安排。目前拥有独立注册信息的现有回译项目能否转换为这种状态?如果可以,该怎么做?如果不行(或者操作很复杂),是否最好将注册信息更改为测试/培训(Test/Training)项目,以免干扰统计数据?
此外,似乎许多回译项目将项目语言设置为母本翻译的方言(vernacular language)。应该使用回译实际使用的语言,对吗?在我们的多数语境中,这通常是法语或英语。我假设最好在项目中更正这一点(这应该会反映在注册表中,对吗?),以确保准确性。然后,如果语言是英语或法语,我们需要确保它是子项目,或者如果它有独立的注册信息,则将其标记为测试/培训项目,或标记为“新”(New)而非“首次”(First)。
感谢大家的意见。

I’ve had several issues in the Registry with Back Translation projects that are not set up as a BT project type based on the mother translation, i.e. they have a separate registration. In some cases these are flagged as problematic by UBS (Sharon P) because it says it is (for example) the First translation into English or French. (Sorry that spot is already taken… )
What is best practice for Back Translation configuration? I assume a BT daughter to the translation is the best arrangement, if you are starting from scratch. Can a currently existing BT with an independent registration be converted to that status? If so, how? If not (or it isn’t easy), would it be best to change the registration to a Test/Training project, so that it doesn’t mess up statistics?
Also, it seems like a lot of Back Translation projects set up the language of the project to be the vernacular language of the mother translation. You should use the actual language of the BT, correct? So French or English in most of our contexts. I assume it would be good to correct that in the project (which should then show up in the registry, correct?), so that it is accurate? And then if it is English or French, we need to make sure that it is either a daughter project, or if it has its own registration, that it is a Test/Training, or is marked as New, not First.
Thanks for your input.
