Selected articles

Some translators prefer to translate online in dotSUB. Others work offline and upload their work afterwards. One of the Hungarian TED Translators compiled a guide to translating offline. The team of Russian Language Coordinators created an illustrated page on Offline translation using Word.

Quotes

“	I translate for the millions of Arabic language speakers (spoken by more than 280 million people as a first language). I translate because it’s a way to promote mutual respect between different cultures, people, religions, etc. Translation is a way to exchange ideas among us as humans. I also translate for my friends; I think it’s a good gift that could change something in their lives. I translate for my daughter, your daughter and every kid and for the coming generations. I hope they’ll one day benefit a little from my translations.	”
—Anwar Dafa-Alla, Arabic TED Translator
