Translation-quality Standards
Like any supplier of goods or services, a translator potentially bears ethical and legal obligations toward his patron or employer. Lately, this has turned out to be of enormous importance with the development of language industry at global scale. For the protection of both parties, standards have been developed that seek to spell out their mutual duties.

Famous quotes containing the word standards:
“There are ... two minimum conditions necessary and sufficient for the existence of a legal system. On the one hand those rules of behavior which are valid according to the system’s ultimate criteria of validity must be generally obeyed, and on the other hand, its rules of recognition specifying the criteria of legal validity and its rules of change and adjudication must be effectively accepted as common public standards of official behavior by its officials.”
—H.L.A. (Herbert Lionel Adolphus)
