Every time a attend one of @jossmo.bsky.social Joss Morken's speeches, apart from admiring the depth of insight, I love how he uses photos to accompany references. I think we should all do that in conferences. Emphasizes the real people behind quotations, and also shows how many women there are.

Τώρα πλέον είναι και στα ελληνικά το bsky. Φαίνονται ΟΚ προς το παρόν.

En este #DíaDelCómic 2025 celebremos el arte: #StopIAGenerativa Con los tiempos que corren, me encanta ver una traducción mía en un cómic con este sello 🥰 @edicioneslacupula.bsky.social

#AIdubbing is not for all kinds of content. Definitely not when the quality is like this. Would this film be dubbed in Brazilian Portuguese if it wasn't for AI? No idea. Does the film attract more viewers now? Maybe. Is Prime Video's reputation taking a hit? No doubt.

Interesante comparación entre DeepSeek y ChatGPT por R. Beninato. Translate "Four simple words... You are not alone" in Spanish. @xosecastro.bsky.social, una pregunta: En el original, la puntuación estaba así? Sin comillas en "You are not alone" ¿Sin dos puntos antes?

Το #λογοπαίγνιο της ημέρας: Yo no tengo las palabras apropiadas como Clarita, ni tan claras. Valga la redundancia. Εγώ δεν τα λέω ωραία σαν την Κλάρα, μόνο για το κλαρί κάνω. Χάλια λογοπαίγνιο. #pun with the name Clara and "clear" words.

Estoy con una serie #colombiana, llena de frases que nunca he oído en la vida. -te vas a meter en culo de verguero -vaina (esta, como mil veces) -va pa' esa -la jerma está como le da la gana -Chiquito, vaina, compadre

Today's #subtitling challenge includes a misquotation of one of Carl Jung's quotes. I wonder if it is intentional and I should follow this new meaning in my subtitles or if it's an error by the creators/producers and we should all correct it. Let's ask and see what happens. #Medusa

Όταν υποτιτλίζω μου αρέσει να συλλέγω λέξεις. Οι σημερινές είναι επονείδιστος, απεχθής, αποτροπιαστικός. Τελικά χρησιμοποίησα το αναίσχυντος. #Gattopardo

Great holiday reading! 😍

Love this!

🎞🎬 What’s your view on subtitles? We would love to hear from you! The UK #Subtitling #Audiences Survey is collecting information on viewing habits and #perceptions of subtitled media in the UK. Only 10 mins to complete: app.onlinesurveys.jisc.ac.uk/s/arts/uk-su... Please share widely-thank you!

Sooooo..... bsky app language settings include Aragonese and Asturian, Catalan and Galician, yay! Hmmm.... no Greek though, sad.

"Human translators"? Aren't #translators human by default? Do we need to specify? I'd like to know your opinion here: www.linkedin.com/posts/sokoli...

#Subtitles providing an extra layer of humour in a comedy #HotFrosty. Writer #RussellHainline: "I have to say, the Netflix subtitle crew did INCREDIBLE work for this movie" #subtitlingheadlines #creativesubtitling #SDHforall www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/n...

Please #NameTheTranslator: Polly Barton @waterstones.bsky.social could acknowledge the translator by giving her the credit she deserves, highlighting her contribution, and sharing her name with their audience.

So happy to share with you a sneak preview of my new book, with three chapters written in coauthorship with @LH_LydiaHayes www.routledge.com/Audiovisual-...

#SubtitlersInTheCredits are an author's right, but also an audience right: they deserve to know when the content they enjoy is crafted by humans.
