Jürgen Hubert<p><a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/WritersCoffeeClub" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WritersCoffeeClub</span></a> July 8: Have you ever received feedback on a piece that completely missed the mark?</p><p>The only thing that comes to mind is: "Have you ever considered using <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> -based <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/translation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>translation</span></a> for your work?"</p><p>While yes, my writing work is all about translating all German folk tales, the actual "translation" aspect is the least part of it. And even here I don't see AI-based translation as particularly helpful, since the 19th century texts I translate are full of obscure idioms and dialect words that AI translation would struggle with.</p><p>But more importantly, when I translate these texts I have to think about the _context_ of these tales - the 19th century environment in which they were set and told. And then I have to research and explain this context to an international audience.</p><p>Can AI do _this_ part for me? Without constantly hallucinating blatant falsehoods? I have serious doubts.</p><p>No, if I want to do all this _right_, then I have to do this work by myself. <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/amwriting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>amwriting</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/DeepL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DeepL</span></a></p>

Uusin suomennokseni tuli painosta pari viikkoa sitten. 550 sivua, oli siinä hommaa. Suosittelen kaikille 1900-luvun historiasta, ihmisoikeuksista ja kansainvälisestä oikeudesta kiinnostuneille.

/ My latest Finnish translation, of Philippe Sands' new book 38 Londres Street, came out a couple of weeks ago. Recommended reading for anyone interested in 20th century history, human rights, and international law.

Es gibt eine neue Ausgabe von trans-kom, in der es hauptsächlich um #LLM bzw. #KI und #Translation geht. Ich habe aber auch einen Beitrag veröffentlichen können, in dem ich mich mit einem ganz anderen Thema befasst habe: Der Sprach- und Übersetzungsreflexion des Rechtswissenschaftlers Christian Daniel Erhard, der 1808 den französischen Code de commerce auch deshalb übersetzt hat, weil er ein großer #Napoleon-Fan war.

Echt gehoord in de winkel:
"We hebben brood nodig,
We hebben kaas nodig,
We hebben boter nodig".

-> Je hebt geen kaas nodig en geen vetspread. Je hebt het zeker niet "broodnodig".

So, i was at the veggies in the shop. Some blokes were having a hard time there finding anything. When they finally found something I guess, they went to other isles stating that "they needed bread, cheese and butter".
Well, obviously you don't NEED coagulated udder juice or fat spread, but...
