Synopsis

Official-document translation leaves very little room for approximation. A mistranslated date, title, legal status, academic credential, restriction, or handwritten annotation can change the meaning of a document and affect the person who relies on it. This professional handbook presents a structured method for revising translations intended for administrative, legal, academic, professional, and institutional use. It explains how to separate linguistic quality from documentary accuracy, identify high-risk errors, verify names, dates and figures, research institutional terminology, handle seals and signatures, assess the seriousness of errors, revise another translator’s work without over-editing, and build a repeatable quality-assurance process. Detailed examples, decision frameworks, practical checklists, case studies, exercises and reporting models turn the principles into an operational workflow. Written for translators, revisers, translation students and language professionals, the book focuses on one central objective: ensuring that the reader of the translation receives the same essential information as the reader of the source document - without unjustified additions, omissions or institutional equivalences.
