+ | |||
+ | {{ :isaac_project:en:mtpe:mtpe_full_instructions:contents:img2_isaac_project_mtpe_full_instructions.jpg |}} | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Wrong language in source**: in source: If the input text is __completely__ in another language (not the | ||
+ | announced source language), check this checkbox and submit the sentence. The strings | ||
+ | marked like this will not be considered in the project wordcount. Example, you are working in | ||
+ | a EN-CN task, but the source is “Datos de mercado no son rastreados”. \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ :isaac_project:en:mtpe:mtpe_full_instructions:contents:img3_isaac_project_mtpe_full_instructions.jpg |}} | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Garbled text in source**: in source: If source text is __completely__ garbled (a series of random characters | ||
+ | like: “jknjknkjnknknn”), check this checkbox e corresponding “Bad source” checkbox and | ||
+ | move to the next string. Code such html, javascript or other programming languages can | ||
+ | also be marked as garbled text. The strings marked like this will not be considered in the | ||
+ | project wordcount. If only a part of the source is garbled, do not click the “Garbled” | ||
+ | checkbox, leave the garbled part as it is in source and translate the rest of the sentence as | ||
+ | you would normally do. \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Nonsensical source**: source: If source text is __completely__ nonsensical, check the corresponding | ||
+ | this checkbox and provide a literal word by word translation. If only a part of the source is | ||
+ | nonsensical, but the rest of the sentence is fine, translate the nonsensical part literally and | ||
+ | the rest of the sentence as you would normally do. Do not describe nonsensical words. \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Typos or Spelling errors in source**: in source: if the source contains grammar or spelling mistakes | ||
+ | but the meaning remains clear, please check this checkbox and provide a fluent translation - | ||
+ | do not replicate the ungrammatical constructs or misspellings into the target language. We | ||
+ | 4 www.centific.com Centific confidential | ||
+ | always expect grammatically correct and correctly spelled translations. Also disambiguate | ||
+ | abbreviations (Ex. 'how r u -> cómo estás').\\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | **More than 1 language in source**: in source: If, apart from the intended language, there is any other | ||
+ | language present in the source text, please select this checkbox. This includes borrowed, | ||
+ | shared or common words from other languages. \\ | ||
+ | ** None apply**: If none of the other checkboxes apply to the text, please mark this one. | ||
