<div> Simultaneous interpreting (SI) with text, a hybrid modality combining auditory and visual inputs, presents greater cognitive complexity than traditional SI. This study investigates multimodal processing in Chinese-English SI with text by examining how source speech rate and professional experience modulate interpreters’ Ear-Eye-Voice Span (EIVS)—a temporal measure reflecting the cognitive coordination among auditory input, visual processing, and verbal output—and interpreting performance. Using eye-tracking technology, we analyzed EIVS patterns in 15 professional interpreters and 30 interpreting trainees performing three SI with text tasks at slow, intermediate and fast speech rates. EIVS measures, including Ear-Eye Span (EIS), Eye-Voice Span (IVS), and Ear-Voice Span (EVS), were analyzed to assess temporal coordination of listening, reading and interpreting processes. Results indicate that faster speech rates significantly reduced EIVS across all measures, suggesting accelerated information processing and strategic cognitive adaptation. A significant interaction effect between speech rate and professional experience was observed. Professionals maintained more stable and efficient EIVS patterns, particularly under accelerated speech rates, reflecting an advantage in cross-modal attention allocation and cognitive resource management. In contrast, trainees exhibited greater reliance on visual input, and struggled more with multimodal demands, manifested in longer EIVS values and greater individual variation. Both groups exhibited an ear-lead-eye coordination pattern during the fast speech rate task, though professionals achieved more efficient auditory-visual synchronization. Despite a decline in interpreting performance with increasing speech rates, professionals consistently outperformed trainees. These findings underscore the critical role of experience in enhancing multimodal coordination, and highlight the importance of dedicated skill-specific practice in enhancing auditory-visual coordination and optimizing interpreting performance under cognitively demanding conditions. </div>

Immersed in the source text

Beatriz Naranjo Sánchez · Babel Revue internationale de la traduction / International Journal of Translation / Revista Internacional de Traducción · 2019

Abstract This study aims at exploring the phenomenon of psychological transportation in translation from an experimental approach. Firstly, we investigate whether the emotions depicted in source texts may influence the level of transportation experienced by translators. Secondly, we try to determine whether different levels of transportation in the texts can make a difference in terms of translation performance. Based on previous work about narrative transportation in products of fiction, as well as the phenomenon known as the “paradox of pleasurable sadness”, we depart from the hypothesis that sad texts lead to a higher degree of psychological transportation than happy texts (H 1 ). Taking into account previous theories and empirical results about the benefits of visualization and emotional engagement in translation, we also predict that highly-transported participants will render higher-quality (H 2 ) and more creative translations (H 3 ) than low-transported participants. For this purpose, a pilot study was conducted consisting of two literary translation tasks with opposing-valence texts (happy vs. sad). Lack of statistically significant differences for our hypothesis suggests that some adjustments in the methodology would be needed to achieve conclusive results; however, we believe that further research on the impact of transportation in translation quality and creativity is still worthwhile.

Vietnamese Text Error Detection Method for Multi-source Text

ZHUANG Ziwei, ZHU Junguo · SHILAP Revista de lepidopterología · 2025

Text error detection is a topic of significant research interest within natural language processing, focusing on automatically identifying the location and type of erroneous words in input text. This task has broad applications across various downstream aspects of text processing and directly impacts daily life. While models for text error detection in English and Chinese have achieved high accuracy, models for Vietnamese face challenges due to a scarcity of corpus resources and manually labeled data. The low quality of training samples hampers the performance of error detection models for Vietnamese. Additionally, the task of error detection for multi-source text introduces complexities, including varied error types across sources and an uneven distribution of error types. Consequently, generalized text error detection models struggle to learn specific error type detection methods, leading to suboptimal performance. To address these challenges, this study proposes a Vietnamese text error detection corpus construction method for multi-source text. The approach leverages datasets from Vietnamese Optical Character Recognition (OCR), Vietnamese speech recognition, and Vietnamese-English translation to create an initial corpus. Using the multi-source Vietnamese error detection corpus generation method, an error corpus is constructed. An error detection corpus automatic labeling algorithm is then employed to generate labeled training data. Furthermore, a Vietnamese text error detection sequence annotation model is introduced, incorporating multi-source information features. By integrating scene features into the multilingual Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT) encoding layer, the model adapts to specific error types based on the context of the input text. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method enhances the F0.5 and F1 values by 1.91 and 1.80 percentage points, respectively, compared to the baseline model. These results validate the necessity of each component of the model as well as the effectiveness of the dataset construction approach.

Explicitating and Implicitating Source Text Ideology

Tiina Puurtinen · Across Languages and Cultures · 2003

The article applies to translation some ideas from critical discourse analysis and discusses the potential effects of translational solutions on the ideological content of texts in the light of a small-scale study on student translations. Ideology refers here to the ways in which linguistic choices made by the writer or translator of a text, first, create a particular perspective on the events portrayed, second, may reflect the writer's opinions and attitudes, and third, may be used to influence readers' opinions. Particular linguistic structures, such as vocabulary, finite and nonfinite constructions, active and passive forms, and grammatical metaphors, can be seen as conscious or unconscious strategies which realise ideological meanings. In translation, ideologically motivated linguistic structures of a source text may be manipulated either unintentionally because of insufficient language and/or translation skills or lacking knowledge of the relationship between language and ideology, or intentionally owing to translation norms, requirements of the translation commission or the translator's own attitudes towards the source text subject. The analysis of Finnish translations of English magazine articles made by translation students focused on explicitating and implicitating translation strategies. Implicitation was found to be much more frequent than explicitation. Explicitation included, for instance, replacing a source-text nominalisation with a Finnish verb phrase and making clausal relations more explicit by adding connectives to the texts. Implicitation involved turning verb phrases into nominalisations and complete relative clauses into complex premodified noun phrases. These strategies changed the viewpoints and occasionally even modified the opinions expressed by the source-text writers. The students' non-systematic application of opposite strategies suggests that source text manipulation was mainly caused by insufficient skills and knowledge rather than ideological motivations.

Where does the source text lie?

Topias Tanskanen · Benjamins translation library · 2026

Abstract In this chapter, I survey modern Western editions and translations of an ancient Jewish text, called First Enoch, surviving in Aramaic, Greek, and Ge’ez. After introducing the work, I analyze the editions and translations regarding how they deal with possible displacements of a text or later interpolations in the text, and how they interact with greatly differing textual traditions. Some of the sources edit and translate diplomatically one text of a work, whereas many conflate different textual traditions and reconstruct a hypothetical source text. Especially in the latter case, the de facto source text has changed significantly in 168 years, often mirroring the ongoing scholarly discussions. The translator always plays a crucial role in constructing the source text.

Multi-source Text Summarization for Czech

Tomáš Brus · Digital Repository (National Repository of Grey Literature) · 2012

This work focuses on the summarization task for a set of articles on the same topic. It discusses several possible ways of summarizations and ways to assess their final quality. The implementation of the described algorithms and their application to selected texts constitutes a part of this work. The input texts come from several Czech news servers and they are represented as deep syntactic trees (the so called tectogrammatical layer).
