What is software or technical translation?
Software or technical translation is the translation of all technical and scientific texts and documents from one language to another, using specialized technical terminology. These texts often contain mathematical, physical or chemical equations, scientific publications, user manuals, drawings, geometric shapes and other technical and technological content. This requires a specialized translator who is an expert in technical and technical terminology, not just linguistic experience and knowledge.
Software translation materials vary between more specialized texts such as scientific, medical, engineering, commercial and technical journal articles, for example, which require a translator who is an expert in this field, and ordinary technical texts, such as product specification sheets such as computer specifications sheets, which
do not require a high level of knowledge of technical terminology, but require a translator with good practical knowledge of the general terms used in this field for technical translation.
Translation of software and technical terms
In light of the tremendous technical and technological development that we are
experiencing in our current era, innovations, inventions and technologies
appear every day that contribute to the development of society and the achievement of well-being for users.
Here, the importance of software translation in our lives appears, as localizing modern applications, programs and innovations are one of the most important challenges facing the technical translator, as this requires the creation, Arabization or translation of these terms in a way that explains their meaning to the user of the target language.
At Alsun Arabia Translation office in Jeddah, we develop a database of these terms through our professional
translators, with the aim of facilitating dealing with these terms and providing unified terms when working on technical translations. We also ensure that all our technical translators adhere to these terms and glossaries.

Conclusion
The demand for software translation is relatively high, due to the scarcity of specialized technical translators who are skilled in this field, as it requires a different kind of knowledge, which may only be achieved through long practice and experience, and perhaps academic studies.
In addition, software translation requires more time than its counterparts in regular translations, as the translator needs time to search sufficiently for terminology and produce a technical text that is understandable in the required target language, according to the level of technical or scientific knowledge of the translator himself.
