According to the analysis of various survey results by Pronto Translations, human translators bring a depth of understanding, context, and cultural intelligence that machines cannot replicate. This skillset ensures that translations are not only accurate but also resonate appropriately with diverse audiences, maintaining trust and avoiding costly misunderstandings.
Mistranslations and Errors: Case Studies
Cross examination and analysis of the available survey data indicates that translation errors can have significant consequences, especially in sensitive industries such as healthcare and legal services. For example, a mistranslation in medical instructions could lead to improper medication usage, risking patient health. Similarly, in legal contexts, even minor translation inaccuracies can alter the meaning of contracts, leading to disputes or litigation.
Cultural Nuances and Sensitivities
According to Joshua B. Cohen, Chief Executive Officer at Pronto Translations, "AI translations often fall short when addressing culturally specific phrases or idiomatic expressions. For instance, translating a phrase like "break the ice" might result in a literal rendering, which could confuse non-English speakers. Human translators, in contrast, can identify the intended meaning and find culturally appropriate equivalents."
