Tips for good translation

1. Read the whole article to get the whole idea
2. Start translating per sentences
3. Find the meaning or the words you do not know in the dictionary or find the synonym in the thesaurus
4. If you cannot find the difficult word in the dictionary, browse the internet or post it in translator's mailing list.
5. Be consistent with the word meaning for the same terms. Use CAT tools for consistency.
6. Practice makes perfect.
