🤖 Raw machine translation: when can it actually make sense?
Machine translation without editing has its place. You just need to know when to use it. 👀
It can help, for example, when:
✅ you need to quickly understand what a text says,
✅ you're working with internal materials,
✅ small inaccuracies aren't a problem and the text won't go out publicly.

For important documents, specialized texts, or content for customers, machine translation on its own is often not enough.
Because speed matters. But it's just as important to know when a human needs to step in. 😊
Does your company use machine translation?

🤖 AI can speed up work with text. But do you know how to use it safely?
AI can help us save time and simplify working with text. But not everything is suitable to feed into AI tools, and not every output is automatically correct. 👀
When working with AI, keep in mind:
🔒 protecting sensitive data
🔍 checking facts and specialized information
📝 clear instructions
👤 human review of the result
Because the best results happen when technology and human experience work together. 😊

⚠️ Did you know: post-editing isn't the same as proofreading?
At first glance they might look similar, but they're actually two different services. 👀
✏️ Proofreading deals with text that already exists in the target language and needs fine-tuning on the language side.
🔍 Post-editing works with machine-translated text and checks whether the result really matches the original — in meaning, terminology, and style.
It's not just about fixing typos. It's about making sure the text makes sense, is accurate, and actually works in practice. 😊

💬 Be honest — did you already know the difference between proofreading and post-editing, or did you think they were the same thing until now?

🤖 AI translation: YES, or better NO?
Honest answer? It's not that simple. 😊
AI can handle a lot today — it can help you quickly understand a text or process materials where you don't need to get every detail exactly right.
But for some texts, just "converting the words" isn't enough anymore. ⚠️
Legal documents, medical texts, technical documentation, or marketing content need accurate terminology, a feel for context, and often a review by an experienced expert too.
So it's not about whether to use AI.

It's about knowing when it helps — and when it can be a risk.

🖖 Space: the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise.

🚀 On September 8, we celebrate Star Trek Day — and this year’s celebration is truly special. It has been 60 years since the Enterprise first set out among the stars.

Since its very beginning, Star Trek has shown us a universe where countless species, cultures, and civilizations meet. They do not always understand each other right away — but time and again, they search for a way to communicate.

And that is exactly why its message remains relevant today. It does not matter where we come from, what language we speak, or how differently we see the world. What matters is our ability to communicate, listen, and understand one another. 🌍

The languages of Star Trek have also gone far beyond the screen. Klingon, for example, has even made its way into academia — Arizona State University uses it as a tool for teaching the fundamentals of general linguistics.

And how would one of the most famous lines in world literature sound in the language of interstellar warriors?

👉 „taH pagh taHbe’.“
To be, or not to be.

Maybe that is one of the reasons why we at Skrivanek love Star Trek so much. It reminds us that languages are not just about words and grammar. They are a way to discover new worlds — both distant ones and the ones right around us.

🖖 Live long and prosper.

🎧 Different type of event, different type of interpreting.
Did you know that every event can call for a different way of interpreting? 😊
Training, an audit, a conference, or a business meeting — each situation has different needs.
Sometimes what matters most is room for questions and discussion. Other times it's accuracy, specialized terminology, or a fast reaction in real time.
That's why choosing the right interpreting isn't just about language. What matters is defining what communication needs to achieve during the event. 🌍

Take a look at which type of interpreting fits different situations.

🎧 Think an interpreter just needs to know two languages?
Language is the baseline, of course. But a good interpreter needs a lot more. 😊
They have to quickly grasp context, work with specialized terms, respond in real time, and preserve not just the meaning of the words, but the tone and intent of the whole message.
That's why interpreting is so much more than just "saying the same thing in another language." 🌍

Take a look at what really goes into professional interpreting.

🎧 Interpreted event? These are the things people often forget.
An interpreter isn't just someone who shows up and starts talking into a microphone. 😊
For everything to run smoothly, they need the right conditions and solid preparation.
📁 Background materials on the topic
💬 A clear interpreting format
🎤 Working equipment
⏱️ Enough time built into the schedule
Even small details decide whether communication during the event is smooth and pleasant for everyone involved. 🌍 That's exactly why good interpreting starts long before the event itself.

🎤 Did you know a presentation can be one of the most important materials for an interpreter?
It's not just "extra material." A presentation often contains exactly the information an interpreter needs to know in advance — product names, specialized terms, abbreviations, figures, charts, and the overall context of the talk. 🎯
When they see it beforehand, they can prepare better and focus during the event on what matters most: accurately conveying the speaker's message.
👣 A small step in preparation can make a big difference to how the whole event goes.
Do you send interpreters materials in advance? Or have you ever been surprised by everything they need to know? 🤔
