Nearly 300 delegates from 35 countries and regions attended the forum online or in person, conducting in-depth exchanges and pooling wisdom on topics including human-computer collaboration in machine translation, translation collaboration in the streaming age, and collaboration in language services.<\/p>\n<p>Translation and interpreting are hugely important to the development of human civilization. From the spread of religion and literature to meetings of heads of state and international exchanges, and even videos on YouTube and TikTok, translation has bridged linguistic gaps and made communication and integration possible. <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> boasts a history of thousands of years in this field. From imperial envoy <span class=\"xn-person\">Zhang Qian&#8217;s<\/span> travels to the Western Regions in the Han Dynasty and Monk Jianzhen&#8217;s voyage to <span class=\"xn-location\">Japan<\/span> to impart Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty, to the introduction of Marxism-Leninism to <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> as well as the concept of &#8220;seeking common ground while shelving differences&#8221; proposed by then Premier <span class=\"xn-person\">Zhou Enlai<\/span> at the Bandung Conference in 1955 and the handshake across the oceans between Chinese and American leaders during <span class=\"xn-person\">Richard Nixon&#8217;s<\/span> visit to <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> in 1972, none would have been possible without translation and interpreting. Generations of translators and interpreters have been striving to hone their skills to promote mutual understanding and communication.<\/p>\n<p>Since <span class=\"xn-location\">China&#8217;s<\/span> reform and opening up to the outside world in 1978, translation has become ever more important. Against this backdrop, the Translators Association of <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> was founded in 1982 with the mission of leading the industry, connecting <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> with the outside world, and enhancing international communication. Over the past four decades, the Translators Association of <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> has kept abreast of the times, advanced the development of translation infrastructure, embraced technology, and helped translators improve their skills, so that they can play a better role in people-to-people exchanges between <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> and foreign countries.<\/p>\n<p>Gao Anming, Executive Vice President and Secretary General of Translators Association of <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> said: &#8220;Translation is not just about changing from one language to another, but rather it played a more profound role. It builds bridges among different languages, peoples, cultures and civilizations. In today&#8217;s world, when globalization brings countries closer than ever before, translation holds the key in peaceful development, mutual understanding and building a community of shared future for humankind. As the only national level organization in <span class=\"xn-location\">China&#8217;s<\/span> translation and interpreting (T&amp;I) community, the Translator Association of <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> (TAC) shoulders the responsibility of speaking for the T&amp;I community in <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span>. On the global front, TAC commits itself to deepening communications and exchanges with international organizations.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Translation stems from differences and naturally embodies the spirit of cooperation. Platforms such as the Asia-Pacific Translation and Interpreting Forum are good examples of exchange and integration between different civilizations. The Translators Association of <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> also plans to promote the development of translation between languages of countries along the Belt and Road in pursuit of a shared future.<\/p>\n<p>In the biblical story of the Tower of Babel, humans become dispersed around the world because of language barriers. Nowadays, organizations such as the Translators Association of <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> are leading the development of translation, while upholding a spirit of cooperation and mission of facilitating communication. With this, we&#8217;re confident that humans will become more and more capable of solving the Tower of Babel problem.<\/p>\n<p><b><i>China Mosaic <\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><i><a href=\"http:\/\/www.china.org.cn\/video\/node_7230027.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">http:\/\/www.china.org.cn\/video\/node_7230027.htm<\/a> &nbsp;<\/i><\/p>\n<p><b><i>Translation and interpreting: A bridge for global friendship and connection<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><i><a href=\"http:\/\/www.china.org.cn\/video\/2022-07\/08\/content_78313775.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">http:\/\/www.china.org.cn\/video\/2022-07\/08\/content_78313775.htm<\/a>&nbsp;<\/i><\/p>\n<p id=\"PURL\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Cision\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" alt=\"Cision\" src=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/img\/favicon.png?sn=CN11936&amp;sd=2022-07-08\"> View original content to download multimedia:<a id=\"PRNURL\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.prnewswire.com\/news-releases\/translation-and-interpreting-a-bridge-for-global-friendship-and-connection-301582930.html\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.prnewswire.com\/news-releases\/translation-and-interpreting-a-bridge-for-global-friendship-and-connection-301582930.html<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BEIJING, July 8, 2022 \/PRNewswire\/ &#8212;&nbsp;A news report by China.org.cn on translation and the Translators Association of China: &amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;nbsp; On June 25 and 26, the triennial Asia-Pacific Translation and Interpreting Forum was held in Beijing under the theme of &#8220;Collaboration in the World of Translation and Interpreting: New Changes and New Modes in the New [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10016","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-business-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
