Ihmistulkkaus

Ihmistulkkaus, also known as human translation, is the process of translating text from one human language to another. This can be done manually by a human translator, who reads the source text and produces a target text in the desired language. The translator must have a deep understanding of both languages, including their grammar, syntax, and cultural nuances.

Human translation is often preferred for its accuracy and nuance. Unlike machine translation, which relies on algorithms and statistical models, human translators can interpret context, idioms, and cultural references that may not be captured by machines. This makes human translation ideal for fields such as literature, law, and medicine, where precision is crucial.

However, human translation is also more time-consuming and expensive than machine translation. It requires significant linguistic expertise and can be slow, especially for large volumes of text. Despite these challenges, human translation remains a cornerstone of professional translation services, ensuring high-quality results in various domains.
