[雜問] 請問計價方式中的sliding scale指的是?

作者: ru832k7 (no end)   2018-03-13 19:22:54
最近考慮幫朋友(國外網頁)接一份網頁長期翻譯案。
(沒有使用過CAT,打算直接逐字翻譯,當練習)
不過,對於合約裡payment的說明看不太懂(如下)
不確定這六種狀況分別指的是什麼?為何六種情況會有不同價碼?
會影響我該不該使用CAT的決定嗎?
請各位大大賜教,謝謝大家<(_ _)>
For the payment of the translations, xxxxxx.com employs a sliding scale based
on translation matches in the xxxxxx.com Translation Memory (“TM”).
Consequently, the compensation to the Freelancer for his/her Assignment
rendered under this Agreement shall be the following, exclusive of VAT:
a) ‘Machine translation’ is paid at EUR 0.02 (100% of base rate) per word
in the source text. Machine translations are automatic translations generated
by a machine;
b)‘Untranslated’ is paid at 100% of base rate per word in the source text.
Untranslated are words that could not be translated from either the
xxxxxx.com translation memory or from machine translation;
c) ‘High fuzzy TM match’ is paid at 60% of base rate per word in the source
text. High fuzzy matches occur when part of a segment has already been
translated from a near perfect match from the xxxxxxxx.com translation memory;
d) ‘Repeated text’ are segments that are repeated more than once throughout
the same project. Repeat matches are listed in the project statistics as a
separate category, they are invoiced as either Machine translation or ‘High
fuzzy’ TM matches and are paid accordingly;
e) ‘100% TM match’ is paid at 30% of base rate per word in the source text;
100% TM matches are fully translated segments;
f) ‘In-context translation’ is paid at 30% of base rate per word in the
source text. An in-context match is a 100% translation match sandwiched
between other 100% TM matches.

因為這六種狀況譯者的貢獻度不同,因此計價方式不同

但machine translation和repeated text卻是最高價的?

如果客戶要求用CAT,強烈建議你也必須使用。這樣才可以保持翻譯的一致性。在有CAT輔助的情況下,不同的match有不同價格是正常的。這邊看起來也是一般挺常規的CAT計價方式。至於機械翻譯算100%也不奇怪,因為中文語系的機械翻譯品質在哪邊,大家應該很清楚。

請問是CAT翻譯品質很差的意思嗎?或很好的意思?因為100%看起來似乎是最高價。另外,請問您有推薦的CAT嗎?謝謝您!
