- The web editor opens and strings to be reviewed are shown one at the time. This is how the page 
looks like: \\

In this page you will find many elements. Let’s see what they are individually: \\
1 – **Task name**: the name of the task you are translating. This info is useful when raising 
queries in Global Query. \\
2 – **Hit ID**: the identification number associated to the string you are translating. This info is 
useful when raising queries in Global Query. \\
3 – **Source Language text**: the source string to be translated. \\
4 – **The source string is not in the expected language**: the checkbox to be selected when the 
source is not in the expected language, for example you are translating from English into 
German, but the source text is in French. \\
5 – **Note**: it can contain info or a link to check the context of the source string. \\
6 – **Machine translation**: the translation of the source string provided by the machine 
translation. \\
7 – **Proposed translation**: the human translation that needs to be reviewed. \\
8 – **Error category**: drop down menu to select the error category. \\
9 – **Open a Spellchecker Dialog for Proposed Translation**: button to run the spell checker on 
the proposed translation. \\
10 – **Submit**: the button to confirm your translation and send it to the system.\\ 
11 – **Skip HIT**: the button to skip the hit in case you don’t feel comfortable with its content 
(adult content, insults, etc.). \\
12 – **Instructions**: this panel contains quick links to the job guidelines in Sharepoint site 
that you carefully need to check and follow during the project \\

- Read the source carefully, check the note (if any) to see the context. Review the Proposed 
translation according to the provided linguistic guidelines and implement any change (if needed) in 
the corresponding text box. Make sure the text is accurate and reads fluent and natural. \\
- If the string you reviewed has no issue or if you only did preferential changes (that should not be 
considered errors), leave the default option “-**Select an error category (if applicable)**”. \\
On the contrary, if the string you reviewed had errors, select the applicable error category for the 
and click **Submit**. Error categories that can be selected are: \\
• **Accuracy-Mistranslation** = The target content does not accurately represent the source 
content \\
• **Accuracy-Omission/Addition** = The target text includes text not present in the source or 
content is missing from the translation that is present in the source. This can include also 
missing or wrong emojis \\
• **Accuracy-Unlocalized text** = Content that should have been translated has been left 
untranslated or content that should have been untranslated has been translated \\
• **Other-Under-edited MT** = Machine Translation has not been edited or has not been edited 
enough \\
• **Language-Spelling** = Issues related to spelling of words \\
• **Language-Grammar/Syntax** = Issues related to the grammar or syntax of the text, other than 
spelling and orthography \\
• **Language-Capitalisation** = Issues related to capitalization of words \\
• **Language-Punctuation** = is used incorrectly (for the locale or style). This includes spacing 
error as well \\
• **Country-Format** = Content uses the wrong format for currency, date/time, addresses, 
measurements, telephone numbers and other locale-specific conventions \\
• **Terminology-Context** = a term is used inconsistently or a domain-specific word is translated 
with an unexpected term for that domain \\
• **Readability-Style** = a text is written with an awkward style or is not idiomatic or violates the 
provided style guidelines \\
• **Preferential Edit** = the edit is purely preferential. Original translation is equally correct. 
Translator is not going to be penalized in the QA score for this. \\
• **Critical-Wrong target language/flavour** = the language or language flavour used in target 
translation is not the expected one (example: Target is in Dutch instead of German; Target is 
in Latin American Spanish instead of Iberian Spanish; Target is in French Canadian instead of 
French from France, etc.) \\

 

__Please remember that the only target languages requested and allowed in this project are:__ \\
es-ES = Spanish from Spain \\
fr-FR = French from France \\
de-DE = German from Germany \\
en-US = English from United States \\
ar-AE = Arabic from United Arab Emirates \\
ja-JP = Japanese from Japan \\
ko-KR = Korean from Korea \\
pt-BR = Portuguese from Brasil \\
ru-RU = Russian from Russia \\
it-IT = Italian from Italy \\
zh-CN = Simplified Chinese from China \\

 

This Error category has a huge penalization, so please make sure to select it only when 
applicable, in order not to unfairly penalize the translator. \\
• **Critical-Cheating behaviour** = any severe cheating behaviour that goes against the project 
guidelines or the contract signed with the customer (example: systematically adding 
nonsensical synonyms just for the seek of changing the MT; adding random spaces between 
words just for the seek of changing the MT; using Deepl; changing commas for full stops or 
the other way around nonsensically, just for the seek of changing the MT; etc.) \\

This Error category has a huge penalization, so please make sure to select it only when 
applicable, in order not to unfairly penalize the translator. \\

**NOTE**! In case there is a sentence with __adult content, insults, etc__. you don't feel comfortable with, 
click **SKIP HIT** to have it assigned to another translator. \\

- If the source is in another language (different from the one you are supposed to translate from), 
select "**The source string is not in the expected language**" and Submit the string directly without 
providing any translation.
