How to Translate

There are two things to do in translation:

  1. Discover the meaning in the source language text--this is initially done during step one: consume, step two: verbalize and step three: chunk.
  2. Retell the meaning in the target language translation--this is done during step 4: blind draft.
  3. The quality assurance steps revisit these two steps several times to confirm meaning and the retelling of that meaning.

Instructions for translation sometimes divide these two things into smaller steps. The graphic below shows how these two fit into the translation process.
