Tom Comerford from Supratext joins us to discuss XLIFF 2.0. For translators who don't know, XLIFF 2.0 has been around since 2014 and would allow translators to work in their tool of choice, as opposed to getting "locked-in" to any particular tool. We discuss the details of XLIFF 2.0 for translators along with some of the reasons why it hasn't been implemented across the industry.

]]> no Twitter, Dragon Naturally Speaking, ELSA, and certified translations b22aa474-4cf0-4153-b5bd-a6400130d0ae Mon, 11 Jul 2016 18:50:02 -0000 00:54:42 Gil and I cover a bunch of different tools out there https://translator-city-radio-zingword.pinecast.co/episode/3071f63f8dfe4466/twitter-dragon-naturally-speaking-elsa-and-certified-translations

Translator City Radio covers four topics this week. We think we're getting better at podcasting, too. Music is by The Apples. Specifically, Run This Town from their album Buzzin' About. It's literally impossible to license legit tracks for podcasts, so if you like funk and horns, listen to this record via a paid channel like iTunes or Spotify. :P

We cover...

  • Manage Flitter, which is a tool for Twitter that helps you follow/unfollow people.
  • Dragon Naturally Speaking. Gil has been using it for a few weeks now and has some interesting comments for translators considering Dragon.
  • ELSA pronunciation app. Neither of us has used it, but we talked about it anyway.
  • The news about certified translations in Europe.
