[0025] The present disclosure will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments, in order to better understand the objective, the technical solution and the advantage of the present disclosure. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure.

[0026] It also should be understood that the specific terms in the present disclosure are inter-changeable terms, for examples, “adjust”, “amend”, “correct” or “edit” can be inter-changeably used for the post editing machine translation text; also “user equipment” or “electronic device” or “mobile device” can be inter-changeably used. The graphical user interface is used to amend the translated text. This amendment includes but is not limited to editing and correction.

[0027] It further should be understood that the method can be implemented by application or APP on smart phones. The smart phone APP is used to run program, to display information and to communicate with backend or servers.

[0028] It further should be understood that the “user” should be interpreted in its broadest meaning. A user could be an end user (e.g., in the above examples Google Translator or DeepL Translator), or an editor for post-translation text (i.e., a post-editor).

[0029] Reference will now be made to the drawing figures to describe the present invention in detail.

Embodiment 1

[0030] As shown in FIGS. 1.1-1.4, a method is introduced for amending translated draft text with a graphical user interface (GUI) of mobile devices. Specifically, FIG. 1.1 shows a display of a mobile device, illustrating (STEP 50) the received draft text (i.e., post-translation text) to be amended.

[0031] Furthermore, after the step of receiving draft text, it is determined (STEP 50a) whether or not user approval for the draft text is received from the mobile device. If the user approval for the draft text is not received from the mobile device, the following procedure is performed. Otherwise, the draft text is outputted, for example to the backend or server.

[0032] As shown in FIGS. 1.2-1.4, a procedure is introduced to be performed within the method. The procedure is performed for amending the draft text, until a user approval for the amended text is received from the mobile device.

[0033] When a first user input for selecting at least one word in the draft text is received (STEP 60) via a touch screen of the mobile device, a prompt icon (e.g., an arrow) is shown to be located at the selected word in the draft text. See FIG. 1.2, the word “Untergang” is selected as an example. The prompt icon provides (STEP 70) the user with a prompt for at least one alternative or an option for replacing the selected word, so as to amend the selected word. See FIG. 1.3, a list of multiple alternatives or options is shown, for example, “Tod”, “Todesfall”, “Tot”, “Totale”, etc., which can be selected for replacing the word “Untergang”. A second user input is received (STEP 80) via the touch screen for choosing the one alternative, in order for replacing the selected word “Untergang”. Based on the chosen alternative, the selected word “Untergang” is replaced (STEP 90) with the alternative word and presented within the amended text. See FIG. 1.4, the alternative word “Tod” is chosen for replacing the word “Untergang”. By clicking the “NEXT” button, the amended text is sent for a further user approval.

[0034] If a user approval is not received from the mobile device (STEP 90a), the procedure is repeated. If a user approval is received from the mobile device (STEP 90a), the procedure ends and the amended text is outputted, for example to the backend or server.

[0035] It could be understood that the user approval for the translated draft and the user approval for the amended text is received via the touch screen of the mobile device.

[0036] Furthermore, the translated draft text is a sentence, and the procedure is based on a draft sentence.

[0037] It should be understood that other views for the procedure repetition are similar to FIGS. 1.2-1.4 in the sense of the inventive concept and thus are omitted.

Embodiment 2

[0038] Embodiment 2 is used to show a reward or bonus for his input option after the user approval.

[0039] Specifically, as shown in FIG. 2.4, the reward or bonus is shown on the bottom of the display page. Further, as shown in FIG. 5, a user account setting is presented.

[0040] It should be understood that other details for the procedure repetition are similar to Embodiment 1 in the sense of the inventive concept and thus will not repeated here.

Embodiment 3

[0041] Embodiment 3 is used to simultaneously show on the same display page the translated draft text in the original language (or the source language) and the amended text in the target language. Further, the embodiment 3 is used to show the reward or bonus after the user inputs the prompted option.

[0042] Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 3.1-3.4, the draft text is shown on the upper part of the display page, while the amended text is shown on the lower part of the same display page.

[0043] Further, as shown in FIG. 3.4, the reward or bonus is shown on the bottom of the display page.

[0044] It should be understood that other details for the procedure repetition are similar to Embodiment 1 in the sense of the inventive concept and thus will not repeated here.

Embodiment 4

[0045] Embodiment 4 is used to simultaneously show on the same display page the translated draft text in the original language and the amended text in the target language. Further, the reward or bonus is not shown in the embodiment 4.

[0046] Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 4.1-4.4, the draft text is shown on the upper part of the display page, while the amended text is shown on the lower part of the same display page.

[0047] It should be understood that other details for the procedure repetition are similar to Embodiment 1 in the sense of the inventive concept and thus will not repeated here.

Embodiment 5

[0048] As shown in FIG. 5, an electronic device is introduced for amending translated draft text. The electronic device comprises a display, a touch screen, a processor (not shown) and a memory (not shown) in which a computer program is stored. The processor is configured to receive and present translated draft text via the display; and to determine whether or not user approval for the translated draft text is received from the electronic device. The processor is further configured to perform the procedure for amending the draft text, until a user approval for the amended text is received from the electronic device.

[0049] It should be understood that details for the procedure repetition are according to Embodiment 1 in the sense of the inventive concept and thus will not repeated here.

[0050] Moreover, FIG. 5 also illustrates a user account setting displayed with a graphical user interface (GUI) of the electronic device. Specifically, under a virtual user account “Max Mustermann”, multiple entries of his amendment(s) associated with this user account are displayed with respective progress status.

[0051] In a history record area, status for each entry (related to the translated draft text or sentence) is labelled with progress information. For example, if the amendment is completed for one entry, this entry is marked as “OK”, while other entries for which amendment still under work are marked as “NOT OK”.

[0052] The marks are determined by the feedback of the sequentially next user or editor to whom the sentence after the current amendment will be shown. If the next user does approve the sentence without further edit, it is set to “OK”. If the next user changes the sentence, it's set as “NOT OK”. Additionally, for every mark “OK”, the user level will increase; for every mark “NOT OK”, the user level will decrease.

Embodiment 6

[0053] As shown in FIG. 6, a method is introduced for translating and amending translated draft text. Specifically, input text in the original language (or the source language) for translation is received (STEP 10). The input text is analyzed (STEP 20) in respect to terminology and subject-matter, for example by the backend. By using terminology database, the input text is translated (STEP 30) into translated draft text in the target language. Then the translated draft text is divided (STEP 40) into translated draft sentence(s).

[0054] The draft sentence (i.e., post-translation sentence) is received by the user and illustrated (STEP 50) for amendment. Further, after the step of receiving draft text, it is determined (STEP 50a) whether or not user approval for the draft text is received.

[0055] If the user approval for the draft text is received from the electronic device, the draft text is outputted, for example to the backend or server.

[0056] If the user approval for the draft text is not received from the electronic device, the following procedure is performed. When a first user input for selecting at least one word in the draft text is received (STEP 60), a prompt icon is shown to be located at the selected word in the draft text. The prompt icon provides (STEP 70) the user with a prompt for at least one alternative or an option for replacing the selected word, so as to amend the selected word. A second user input is received (STEP 80) via the touch screen for choosing the one alternative, in order for replacing the selected word. Based on the chosen alternative, the selected word is replaced (STEP 90) with the alternative word and presented within the amended text.

[0057] Next, the amended text is sent for user approval. If a user approval is not received from the electronic device (STEP 90a), the procedure is repeated. If a user approval is received from the electronic device (STEP 90a), the procedure ends and the amended text is outputted, for example to the backend or server.

[0058] It should be understood that detailed examples for the procedure repetition are similar to Embodiment 1 in the sense of the inventive concept and thus are omitted.

[0059] As shown in FIG. 7 (see the upper part), a method for amending translated draft text is operating in each of smartphones 1, 2 and 3. Reference is now made in sequence to each of smartphones 1, 2 and 3, to describe the present embodiment in detail.

[0060] Specifically, first of all, the smartphone 1 receives the translated draft text or sentence, for example from the backend. The smartphone 1 determines that a user approval for the draft text is not received from the smartphone 1, for example from its touch screen. See FIGS. 1.2-1.4, a procedure for amending the draft text is performed, where the selected word “Untergang” is replaced with the alternative word “Tod”. The smartphone 1 determines that the user approval for the amended text is received from the smartphone 1, for example from the touch screen, and outputs the amended text.

[0061] Secondly, the smartphone 2 receives the amended text, for example from the smartphone 1. The smartphone 2 determines that a user approval for the amended text is received from the smartphone 2, for example from the touch screen. The smartphone 2 can output the amended text without any change.
