Human translation is the process of converting text or speech from one language to another using a person who is fluent in both languages. This method relies on the translator's understanding of cultural nuances, idiomatic expressions, and context, ensuring that the meaning is accurately conveyed. Unlike machine translation, which uses algorithms and databases, human translation can capture subtleties and emotions that machines may miss. This makes it particularly valuable for complex texts, such as literature, legal documents, and marketing materials, where precision and tone are crucial for effective communication.
