    Description of Project
    The purpose of this project is to translate the source file Life
    Coaching into Portuguese for Mr. Adam Wooten.

    Project Scope
    This project will use Trados as a computer assisted translation tool
    to translate the source file, analyzing its content for word count, as
    well as facilitating other translation steps. Research of reference
    material will be conducted to aid the translation. The source file
    will need to be prepared in order to be translatable for Trados,
    and after translation phase, a Quality Assurance process will be
    applied in order to attest the quality of the translation. During the
    finalization phase, the translated files will be prepared for delivery.

    A little bit about us


    Mariana Attie has 11 years of professional experience working as a
    translator. She worked as a Translator and IT Coordinator for a
    multinational headhunting company in So Paulo, Brazil, and has also
    been involved in translation projects for websites, dubbing and
    subtitling.

    Valeska Masullo has 10 years of experience in both Teaching English


    as a Second Language and Translations. She worked for American
    multinational companies in Human Resources area in Manaus, Brazil.
    She also has experience with translation for subtitling.

    Preparation
    In order to better approach the text to be translated and understand
    its terminology, we will research reference material in both source
    and target languages so that the content is understood, facilitating
    the translation process.

    A previous meeting will be held with the translators to prepare a


    terminology aiming to unify the terms used in translation. Also, the text
    will be divided between the two translators and deadlines for the
    internal translation process will be set

    Production
    The translators will begin the translation process using the pre-set
    terminology. When the process is concluded, translators will meet up
    to combine both parts of the text into one single file.

    Finalization
    After the translation is finished, both translators will have a meeting to
    unify the final text before final revision. This process will include the
    analysis of the terminology that will be later on become the
    translation memory delivered to the client. Revision will be conducted
    after the translation is finalized and the quality process will begin.

    QA Process will be followed by the preparation of the files that will be


    provided to the clientthey are listed in the section below.

    Deliverables
    Source File the original text to be translated;
    Target the translated file;
    Updated linguistic preparation files:
    Translation Memory a linguistic database that captures translations
    for future use.
    Glossary - a list of words with their definitions
    Tech preparation files:
    Pseudo translation - is a dummy translation used to test if the text is
    correctly formatted. This is a pre-translation step to assure that the
    CAT tool will translate the target file within the same format as the
    source file.
