Peer Review is an important part of quality assurance in our translation projects. Peer review can either mean partners on a team working together to check each other's work, or a whole-group review.
Here are some suggestions for an effective peer review:
- Read the verse or passage several times (silently and aloud)
-
- This helps you to listen for the naturalness in the language, as well as how it flows
- Pay attention to word choice, spelling, grammar and punctuation, and make any changes needed
- If there is something you are not sure about, ask the person whose work you are reviewing, or talk with your Quality Coach
- Be kind. Each team member is trying their best. Support one another and help each other learn.
