11 janvier 2021 - Paratext
Paratext was designed to facilitate the hard work of Bible translation by providing the tools and resources to analyze the original languages and to enable translators to faithfully translate its meaning. Paratext is an excellent tool for translating the text, but publishing has traditionally been left to professionals. Even so, once a section of text has been completed inside of Paratext, translators invariably want to print it—whether for early testing or for intermediate publications before... read more

In 2018, developers at SIL surprised the Paratext steering committee by coming up with a version of Paratext that worked on Android tablets and phones, and they did it in a relatively short amount of time. They were careful to warn users that this limited version of Paratext, branded Paratext Lite, was not intended as a primary translation tool but as a companion to Paratext. Now, a couple of years later, we took an in-depth look at how it is being applied to the task of Bible... read more

Imagine a super translator …able to leap tall buildings with a single bound. What qualities would this person have? First of all, they would be fluent in both the Biblical source language and in the target language. That way they would be able to understand the source text perfectly, and would also be able to find the best way to render it in the target language. Then, they would probably have a perfect memory, so that they would be consistent in their expressions and terminology throughout... read more

If a SILK file becomes corrupted, or if the computer crashes, it has been possible to lose a lot (or all) of the data. SILKin 2.4 creates back-up copies of SILK files every time the User saves their file. It also makes interim back-ups during a work session at intervals selected by the User. If anything goes wrong while saving or opening a SILK file, SILKin automatically reverts to the most recent back-up copy.

SILKin 2.2 has been “Internationalized.” All the text that appears on screen or in menus can be displayed in French or English. Users may select their preferred language from the Menu bar. If a third language option is desired, all that is needed is translation of (voluminous) text files into the new language.
