DeepL teaches translation to carry the attitude, not just the words
· New York time
DeepL says its new Aure model for real-time voice translation carries tone, emotion, emphasis and speaking pace into the target language. The aim is to make translated speech sound more natural, including when a speaker's mood shifts. That is a more complicated assignment than moving words between languages. How something is said can change its meaning, particularly when the words themselves are dry or ironic. DeepL's claim puts delivery alongside vocabulary in the translation job. The software is now being asked to preserve the raised eyebrow as well as the sentence, preferably without needing an actual eyebrow.
