DrJackson Posted April 23, 2012 Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 kingofocean, I have to say that I'm not at all a big fan of what is happening right now on addic7ed.com, with any translation (no matter if it is French, or Portuguese, or Romanian, or Bulgarian or any other spoken language on this Earth or beyond ). I totaly agree with your post, same "mistakes" I noticed myself on so many translations and we are trying to stop any Google translation use or any translation made-just-to-be-made, just to have a name as % translated by. But I guess I'm the only one who dissagree how translations are made right now , because addic7ed is a FREE - let's say - services, and for that (and so few other reasons), the translation feature will be something like "wiki", everyone can contribute. Because of that, any "raw" translation will be like you (and many other) noticed. But, you can contribute correcting any finished or just started translation. And who knows, maybe in a short (I hope) time, we will have only an aproved translation team, for every language. Who knows? doc. The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do!

kingofocean Posted April 23, 2012 Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 Ha! I knew i was too a "newbie" to this site to notice how it works Didn't know about the "Free service" as you put it. I guess it would be awesome if we could start to create a team to translate the right thing. The only "stuff" I've always wondered in fact is how the english subtitle is created at first. I mean, is it a team who does it? Syncing and writing the subtitles and all? Or is it a program used to "copy" captions available from TV networks in the US. Because for me, a french guy trying to translate english srt files into french srt ones, it is waaaaaaaaaaay easier to have the english srt file and translate from it. The sync might not be some few times perfectly good, but it would be enough to make a first "raw" subtitle and have a sync team do the rest. For me, creating a french subtitle from a tv show without the english one is just impossible :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soul glittering Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Hi ! I want to translate some series so I downloaded the links but I have subtitles not the video. So is what it takes I look the video on other site to translate after or there are an other solution ? Thanks for your answer. Good bye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJackson Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 [...] but I have subtitles not the video. BUT we have on the site only subtitles. In fact, that is what we do best: we provide subtitles, NOT links for video files. doc The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do!

DrJackson Posted September 21, 2012 Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 Hi there. You could make translations: 1. Using addic7ed online translation feature (pick up show-season-episode, then choose desired English version, then choose New Translation from English to Indonezian and... start to translate). 2. Using a software like Subtitle Edit or Subtitle Workshop or whatever and work off-line, then upload to the site your translated file. doc.

davidknox123 Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Many thanks for your service, and to the people who contribute. I've been downloading "Switched at Birth" subs and have been microscopically editing them for my Japanese students so that every word said and all punctuation are meticulously laid out. I'd be pleased to channel it back into your system if you'd care to advise me how to go about it (may I ask you to email me if you're interested). A heads up, though: I've changed the spelling to English (eg. 'realize' --> 'realise'), I've replaced phonetic spelling (eg. 'gonna' --> 'going to'), I've removed the words to songs, and have deleted commentary (eg. '(music playing in background)'). This might make my work worthless to you.

'(music playing in background)'). [...] If you will use the NON HI version (that version that don't have the "ear" sign, you'll not have to do all that things.

daringg Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 Hello, I'd like to try and translate some subtitles from English to Bulgarian being only a translator. I think if I translate straight in the original English subtitles all the rest will be fine. So I have registered in http://www.addic7ed.com, but I can not activate my account. It says: User Activation Something went wrong with your activation, please contact an administrator for assistance Could anyone here help me please.

I think i agree, threre is obvious mistakes in a lot of translation, sometime it look like the translator didn't understood one (at least) of the two language ! Anyway it is a nice start only need correction, i would be glad to help from english to french (not sure there is a lot of things to translate from french to english and my english is not really good enough to correct an english speaking people) I would be glad to help for the correction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonestar Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 Count me in. * Synchronizer ( adjusts times ) check.* Correctors ( checks if the subtitle is complete, spell checks texts ) check.* Translators ( when possible, to translate the subtitle to other languages ) English to Turkish check.* Supervisor ( the final check of the file. Checks if the subtitle is according to The Code ) and check again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cryb Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 Hi, I'm a French teacher (I teach French to foreign students) and a total eerie addict. I would be happy to participate when I have time. I think I will start first as a corrector to get some experience and be ready to do translations myself (maybe the next Seasons...). I can help for : Shameless, Californication, The big C, Grey's anatomy, Big Bang Theory and How I met your mother, Just one thing, I read some topics like FAQ or Tuto but I'm not sure I understand the technic part.
