Welcome to translationAcademy
The "translationAcademy" is intended to enable anyone, anywhere to equip themselves so that they will be able to make high-quality translations of biblical content into their own language. translationAcademy is designed to be highly flexible. It can be used in a systematic, in-advance approach or it can be used for just-in-time learning (or both, as needed). It is modular in structure.
translationAcademy contains the following sections:
- Introduction - introduces the unfoldingWord project
- Process Manual - answers the question "what next?"
- Translation Manual - explains the basics of translation theory and practical translation helps
- Checking Manual - explains the basics of checking theory and best practices
- Audio Manual - How to do high quality audio recordings
- Gateway Languages Manual - explains issues specific to the Gateway Languages
Several of the manuals are separated into two volumes. Volume 1 of each manual covers the basics of that subject while volume 2 goes more in depth. In general, if a module is needed to translate and publish Open Bible Stories, then it is included in volume 1, if not, then it is included in volume 2.
