Needless to say, that human talent is unique and unmatchable in many cases. There are several mobile phones and software that have made the job of translation and interpretation easy, albeit not famous, and not useful in this entirety. I have reason to believe that human talent and its intervention in certain jobs would never be replaced. This essay describes my disagreement in light of the recent trend of the use of technology for the said purpose.
The human talent in many jobs has been replaced by technology. In some jobs, it is a boon for the society, but is has not been able to run over the human talent absolutely. Such is the truth with translation and interpretation of the vernacular language for various purposes. I believe that automation translation and interpretation using the technology is yet to make its debut in society. The first distinctive merit to support my point is the technology cannot convey the subtle nuance of meaning of each word. It only offers the meaning of words. Hance, it cannot create a sensible context, which is of paramount significance.
Secondly, it is significant to understand the meaning from the context. Or the whole idea could be distorted if the meaning is lost. For example, the verb, ‘kill’ and ‘assassinate’ have the same meaning of killing, bet both have different contexts altogether. Only human talent can distinguish the difference between both meanings. It may create utter confusion or misunderstanding if the tool does not figure the right word.
In summary, the hob of translators and interpreters is not yet under threat. The relevant apps and software lack sixth sense, and indeed, they can rival human in this department with a little success.
