法律事務所の翻訳業務と法務翻訳のヒントー4月JLDウェビナー 感想文

April 25, 2025 By JLD Administrator Leave a Comment

松本佳也氏による「法律事務所の翻訳業務と法務翻訳のヒント」と題したJLDウェビナーが、米国時間4月4日に開催されました。松本氏はオランダや日本の法律事務所で英和・和英両方の翻訳業務を担っていた豊富な経験があります。 法律事務所で翻訳される文書にはさまざまなものがありますが、最も多いのは契約書で、交渉の段階で訂正されるたびに翻訳作業が発生します。最近の傾向として、東京証券取引所が企業情報の日英同時開示を推進していることなどから、日英の法務翻訳の割合が増加しているとのことで、新たな需要は、翻訳者としてチャンスになると感じました。 翻訳作業では、担当 … [Read more...]

JLD Certification Workshop

April 8, 2025 By JLD Administrator Leave a Comment

米国では3月28日(金)、日本、オーストラリアでは29日(土)JLDによるATA認定試験ワークショップが開催されました。無生物主語や直訳などの翻訳の仕方、普通の日本語として読んだ場合きちんと通じるかなど、まだまだ勉強が足りません。訳抜けや余分な追加がないか確認することの大事さ、英辞郎の注意点、Goo国語辞書を参照することの勧めなども学びました。減点の方法も[1]よくわかりました。また、私は常日頃、一つの画面に原文を表示して、もう一つの画面でワードを開き、辞書なども開くので、一つの画面で受験するのは難しいと感じました。受験する際、受験環境に関する条件[2]を … [Read more...]

JLD文殊の知恵 「Tools for Translators in December 2024」感想文

January 23, 2025 By JLD Administrator Leave a Comment

今回の「文殊の知恵」は、翻訳者が普段使用しているツールがテーマで、皆さんから多くの有益な情報が共有されました。 セッションの前半には机、椅子、モニター、キーボード、マウスなど、ハードウェア系のツールが紹介されました。個人的に特に印象に残ったのは椅子です。翻訳者は長い時間、同じ体勢での作業を強いられるので、背中や腰への負担が少ない椅子は不可欠です。今回紹介されていた椅子の中には10万円を超える高価なものもありましたが、自分の健康寿命が延びることを考えると、必要な投資なのかもしれません。椅子の代替品としてバランスボールが紹介されていたので、私もクローゼッ … [Read more...]
