SUMMARY:Social Saturday: DeepL Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Debunking the Myths of DeepL and other Machine Translation Packages \n\n\n\nDo you work with DeepL or any other MT package(s) – whether via MTPE assignments from agencies/direct clients\, by your own choice in your translation assignments or your clients’ choice? \n\n\n\nJoin us for an NWTN Workshop led by Nicole van den Wittenboer MITI as we take a ‘deep dive’ into all matters DeepL\, as well as other machine translation packages.  \n\n\n\nThis interactive workshop will aim: to compare Linguee.nl and DeepL (both free and paid subscription versions); to examine examples of errors to look out for when editing machine-translated texts; and how to advise your clients on the pros and cons of MT and their implications on the time needed for translation/compensation. By the end of the workshop\, we hope attendees will feel more confident and positive about using machine translation packages. \n\n\n\nAudience takeaways \n\n\n\nYou will establish if machine translation is for you and whether you should use it. Should you offer it as a service to your clients? Establish which package to choose: DeepL or an alternative? Learn how easy it is to work with and what the benefits and drawbacks may be. How would it affect your way of working and the time it would take you to do an assignment? Can it be integrated into your CAT tool? Can it be used with your clients’ translation platforms? How would you advise your clients? Would you potentially earn more? \n\n\n\nTranslators of all levels of experience who want to understand the opportunities presented by machine translation packages and would like to maximise their chances of success when using them.  \n\n\n\nTarget audience \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker \n\n\n\nNicole has over 30 years’ experience as a freelance translator between Dutch and English\, user and trainer of CAT tool packages (Déjà Vu (DVX) and Trados) to translator colleagues and MA students and has used DeepL for over 5 years. \n\n\n\nEvent details \n\n\n\nJoin us for this NWTN Social Saturday at the Friends’ Meeting House in central Manchester! Nicole’s workshop will include a tea/coffee break. \n\n\n\nWe anticipate demand will be high\, so don’t delay in booking as tickets will be limited and the deadline is 16th January\, 4pm (for catering purposes)!

Please contact Laurence ahead of the bookchat for any guidance and to inform us you’re coming. \n\n\n\n🤔 If we don’t have a castaway reader this time\, we could talk about the classics we would like to read… one day. Or the ones we tried and abandon\, or the ones we would never read… prepare your arguments for the discussion! ⁉️ \n\n\n\n📚 As ever\, the session will end with an opportunity to exchange book recommendations. Has anyone caught up with some reading this summer? Any beach/travel books to recommend?Please don’t forget to add your recommendations to the Bookchat Forum so people can consult them at any time! \n\n\n\nYou can also join the chat on WhatsApp with your fellow bookchatters. If you are already a member of our WhatsApp NWTN Community\, just join the Bookchat group. Otherwise\, you can scan the QR code below. \n\n\n\nThis is also a great opportunity to meet the regulars if you have not attended before. \n\n\n\nCome and tell us what kind of reader you are! \n\n\n\nLaurence and Janice \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin on Zoom\n\n\n\n\n\n\nZoom details: \n\n\n\nMeeting ID: 875 1082 0998Passcode: 504490

SUMMARY:Spring Walk 2025
DESCRIPTION:This walk takes us to the northern boundaries of Greater Manchester and up into the hills above Ramsbottom. We’ll visit the Peel Tower – a local landmark on Holcombe Hill\, 1100 feet above sea level\, where we’ll stop to admire a view right across the county (sadly you can only climb to the top on certain Sundays). The walk is about 6 miles long\, and in places quite steep\, strenuous and even precipitous\, so it’s not just an easy stroll. Sturdy footwear is recommended\, as the paths are sometimes stony and narrow\, and tree roots and mud are likely to make it slippery in places if it’s been raining recently. \n\n\n\nIt’s an opportunity to explore some of the places in Lancashire where the Industrial Revolution began 250 years ago. On the way back\, we’ll pass through the Holcombe village conservation area and quench our thirst at The Shoulder of Mutton pub\, which was built in 1751 and survived being bombed by Zeppelins in World War I. \n\n\n\nPeel Tower\n\n\n\nOrganisers Mike Hanson and Andrew Wilson \n\n\n\nStart 12.00 pm from Nuttall Park car park in Ramsbottom (BL0 0AS)\, which is accessed via Nuttall Hall Road. It has plenty of free parking\, a small café and toilets. Alternatively\, you can meet us 15 minutes later outside Ramsbottom railway station (part of a heritage railway not linked to the national network)\, which has limited free parking but is easier to find and access if you arrive on public transport (tram to Bury\, then a 20 min bus ride to Ramsbottom). The station too has a café and toilets. \n\n\n\nIf you arrive late at the car park and need to catch us up\, walk past the tennis courts and the bandstand\, under the railway and through the Cormar Carpets factory yard\, then turn right towards Aldi and Ramsbottom station. \n\n\n\nFood and drink Bring a packed lunch and water to drink\, as well as a mat to sit on when eating/resting as we’ll stop for a picnic lunch at some point. \n\n\n\nFamily members\, friends and dogs are welcome\, but this walk may not be suitable for younger children. Active kids aged about 7 and upwards should manage the walk without too much difficulty provided they’re appropriately shod. If you’d like more information to help you decide whether to come\, please contact one of the organisers. \n\n\n\nIMPORTANT – PLEASE READ AND ONLY COME ON THE WALK IF YOU ACCEPT THE FOLLOWING DISCLAIMER: \n\n\n\nEveryone is welcome but participants must consider themselves to be on an unofficial day out with friends – neither the organisers nor NWTN or ITI can accept any liability for accidents or injuries sustained by anyone involved. \n\n\n\nBooking Please indicate your attendance by clicking on the RSVP button below.

SUMMARY:NWTN AGM 2025 (Online)
DESCRIPTION:The NWTN committee invites you to attend this year’s NWTN Annual General Meeting on Wednesday 30th April\, 4.00 pm – 6.00 pm. We will be holding the meeting entirely online (see joining link below).  \n\n\n\nThis year\, we are not combining the AGM with our Annual Dinner\, which will take place in Autumn. Look out for further announcements about the 40th anniversary of our network. \n\n\n\nThe provisional agenda is below. The 2024 AGM minutes and this year’s committee reports will be made available in due course in the Resources page on our website. If you have any ideas\, comments or questions\, please submit them to chair@nwtn.org.uk so we can add them to the agenda.  \n\n\n\nSome committee members have been fulfilling their roles for some years\, and we need new volunteers. If you wish to help the committee with their tasks and support the network\, please come forward. \n\n\n\nAlso\, if you have a specific idea for an event\, why not join the Events Team and help us to organise it! \n\n\n\nWe hope you can attend and we look forward to seeing you there.  \n\n\n\nThe committee are currently working out the exact way in which the online AGM will function\, given only full members will have the right to vote\, but we would stress that it is vital that all members feel able and willing to attend. As with other events\, this will be held via Zoom. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMeeting ID: 892 2438 0844         Passcode: 001220 \n\n\n\nWe recommend downloading Zoom onto your computer rather than using it with your web browser.

SUMMARY:Social Saturday: Diversification
DESCRIPTION:Saturday 15th March 2025 – 2-5pm \n\n\n\nYou’ve got the power: A diversification toolbox for freelance translators and interpreters with Ken Paver \n\n\n\nTranslators and interpreters are often told that their business needs to ‘diversify or die’\, and that there is a conventional range of fields into which they should be diversifying in order to boost their income. This presentation will look at what diversification is\, and what it isn’t. It’s not necessarily about technology (although it can be)\, or about doing new things\, like having to re-train to work in fields that lie outside your normal area of competence; it’s not about diversification versus specialisation; it’s not even necessarily about identifying and exploiting that killer business opportunity – although we would all love that\, of course. \n\n\n\nDiversification is about utilising the potential that’s already there in your business: you have potential opportunities for diversification lying undiscovered among your activities. Some will be close to the surface; others will be more deeply buried. Some will involve a greater degree of risk than others. \n\n\n\nThis kind of theoretical underpinning is all very well\, but what the sensible translator/interpreter needs is a set of concrete tools for improving their working practice and\, ultimately\, their lives: this presentation proposes a diversification toolbox\, designed to help language professionals to prepare for diversification\, and to identify key drivers of diversification opportunities in their individual business profiles (via a ‘diversification audit’)\, so that they can maximise their chances of seizing those opportunities when they emerge. \n\n\n\nTranslators and interpreters already have the power to diversify: it’s simply a question of harnessing that power by building on existing capabilities and contacts\, and shedding the inhibitions and misconceptions that can sometimes hold us back. \n\n\n\nAudience takeaway \n\n\n\nA clearer understanding of diversification\, and what it means for freelance translators and interpreters. A diversification toolbox\, containing a set of practical tools designed to help freelance translators and interpreters to prepare for and identify diversification opportunities\, giving them the best possible chance of seizing opportunities when they arise. A sense of translators and interpreters as business people with powerful\, valuable (and often untapped) skills and potential. \n\n\n\nTarget audience\n\n\n\nTranslators and interpreters of all levels of experience who want to understand the opportunities presented by diversification and would like a diversification toolbox to help them maximise their chances of success.

SUMMARY:Epiphany Coworking
DESCRIPTION:Join us in Warrington for a ‘January Special’ coworking session featuring a ‘Galette des Rois’\, a cake the French eat at the Epiphany (well\, all through January…) – will you win the little token in your slice? If you find it\, you become the ‘King/Queen for the Day’! \n\n\n\nThe NWTN has booked a private room and paid for this coworking session on behalf of our members\, so all you have to remember is to bring your laptop and friendly chit chat! Why not use this opporunity to plan the new year ahead with support and encouragement from fellow colleagues? If you have work to do\, the office is spacious and offers three private phone booths\, plus all the mod cons we’ve come to expect. \n\n\n\nThe coworking space has a café with reasonably-priced breakfast and lunch goodies. Just make sure you leave enough room for your slice of Galette! \n\n\n\nParking is available in the nearby Golden Square shopping centre (£6 for the day). Hope you can join us! \n\n\n\nPre-booking is required so we keep a slice for you! Please email Laurence by 6th January.
