Back translation and reconciliation

Translation is a process of transforming the language, message and culture. During the translation process, those elements can be impaired or even distorted. The back-translation and reconciliation process will help check, evaluate and mitigate discrepancies in the forward translations.

Back translation

Back translation is an important process in evaluating the accuracy of a translation. Back translations will be performed by a professional translation team, working independently from the forward translation team.

Back translations are often applied to certain types of important texts, requiring high accuracy and guaranteed responsibility by a reputable translation agency.

Below are some typical types of documents that need back-translation:

Economic contracts.
State-level cooperation documents.
Records related to public health (clinical trials, drug use instructions, etc.)
Records related to pleadings, court decisions.

Reconciliation

Reconciliation is a checking activity that evaluates the suitability of a translation compared to the original source texts. Normally reconciliation will be done by reconciliating the back translation and the original source text.

Goal of Reconciliation

Detect discrepancies between the translations and the source texts.
Assess the potential risk of errors.
Suggest appropriate revisions.
