How to treat language translators

Hot 5716 views. 2018-5-13 14:20


We are living in an age of new technology, which suggests people are surrounded by technology and impacted by it. New technology develops so fast that we can't follow its step. So, when we benefit from it, we should know how to treat its negative aspect. Today, I want to talk about language translators.

This week, a teacher who teaches us preliminary oral interpreting course showed us some videoes where some persons applied language translators to daily life and talked with each other directly. I was so shocked that I could hardly say a word. For one thing, language translators are small in size, light in weight and stylish im design, which is convenient for people to carry about. In addition, with technology developing fast, the price of language translators becomes more favorable. So, more and more people can afford it. What's important is that not only can language translators give multilingual service to people but also translate all kinds of dialects to any languages.

To be honest, faced with such serious problem, we, as English major students, are under great pressure. However, we should try our best to meet this challenge instead of being defeated by it. We should make the best of our advantages. For example, we can express us by body language which can help others understand the real meaning of our words. But language translators can only speak mechanically. So, we must practice our ability of memory and expression so that we can follow the step of technology.

In a word, we aren't afraid of the language translators. Only by continuous learning can we support ourselves in this competitive world.

The translation machines exactly impress me a lot and I have pressure as well. But I think we also have some advantages such as more flexibility.

Your worry is absolutely realitic. I also use language translators and find their artificial intelligence is great, But we need to know that language is our human's creation. Only we can trully understand its meanings.

With the development of the technology, some translated machines can do some simple work to replace people. That means people should make every effort to study to work better than the machines.

To be honest, I was a little shocked by this invention for its convenience and accuracy. It occured to me that I am not better than the language translator after so many years' learning, so I was so depressed. However, your words remind me that I still have chance to be as good as the translator or even better than it.

Facing language translator, we can feel pressure and also propel us to study English with more energy and enthusiasm. We are sophomores, on the way to juniors, I believe, as long as we seize studying time in university, we can be as great as the translator instead of being replaced.

Your words remind me of my English applications. These applications are both convenient and accurate. However, they can't express them in a flexibility way, so we must learn to improve ourselves.

Yeap. What I written down here is based on our ability and competence. And henceforth, we ought to be of confidence and also study hard. If we are not qualified to the translation work, we will still be substituted.
