Conference feedback

Interessant day! for translation continuing!


The 3-day event is a wonderful opportunity to learn about so many different aspects of the language industry. But, horror of horrors!! At the bottom of the page, a line reads "The following exhibitors are in there booths, ready to answer your questions." Can it be true that at an event for LINGUISTS, this blatant misuse of "there" instead of "their" can appear on your page? Has noone else brought this to your attention? It´s terribly discrediting for your organization to hire people that don´t know how to use "there", "their" and "they´re" properly You need an editor/reviewer, to avoid this from happening again. Let me know if I can be of assistance ;)


Useful presentation, good tips, several ideas to work on in the future. Thank you!

18:44 May 28, 2014 João Seco: 1708040 All Well, I think I commented this on the conference, regarding automation, but when you think of automation please think of these little repetitive tasks

18:45 May 28, 2014 István Lengyel: 142959 All We are trying! The project templates bring in some automation, regarding updating TMs, but I don't think there is much with repetitions.
