Back translation and reconciliation
The back translation serves as an additional validation step in the workflow.
When it comes to ensuring quality, precision and accuracy, back translation including a subsequent comparison with the source text should be taken into consideration as a tool for evaluating quality.
The back translation may help identify any uncertainties or sensitive details which might have been overlooked or misinterpreted in the translation. It also ensures that all intercultural questions are addressed and cleared up prior to the publication of the translation, thus confirming its conceptual and cultural suitability for the target group.
