Microsoft Terminology Forums

Hi everyone,

Not easy to localize computer programs... MS needs native translators of target languages (and not foreigners - see what I mean?).
When Microsoft wants to be very quick, they use automatic translators and the outcome is often laughable, ridiculous, comic.
They're experimenting these "MTF".

I happen to participate in this forum.

To me, this is a good opportunity to:
- use language skills for a real job
- think carefully for a real application
- improve language level
- check against other contributors - there are other contributors and one can see their proposals
- help MS improve their French programs

Want to participate? Send me a pm.

I happend to participate in this forum.

Gérard it must be very interesting but too hard for me

The importance of the contribution is very good to improve teh level.
At the same time, there are other contributors.

A key point is that one can read other's comments, and even vote for the other proposals (that means one has to think of other's work).
Very formative, very beneficial!

A spelling. I wanted to write "I happen to participate in this forum."
