We are currently using "transformation" in the study when want to talk about any kind. Julie Hedlund:@Chris: This is the definition in the Final Issue Report: "Transliterationistheprocessofrepresentingthecharactersofanalphabeticalorsyllabicsystemofwritingbythecharactersofaconversionalphabet.Iftransliterationweredesired,thenthe"mustbepresent"scriptwouldbetheLatinscript.Iftranslationweredesired,thenthe"mustbepresent"languagewouldbeEnglish." Julie Hedlund:Sorry about the lack of format! Marc Blanchet:agree. depends on the need. Peter Green:agree too. Transformation covers all kinds of change Julie Hedlund:@Wolf-Ulrich: There is the definition for "translation" in the Final Issue Report, "Translation is the process of conveying the meaning of some passage of text in one language, so that it can be expressed equivalently in another language.. Steve Sheng:Thanks Chris, this is good feedback, perhaps in the survey we ought to consider the definitions first as well. Julie Hedlund:@Steve: you might want to consider including definitions at the start of the survey, as in a taxonomy. Steve Sheng:yes Marc Blanchet:definitions as pointers. We don't want to overload the survey itself. People have lvery short attention time to surveys. Lars Hoffmann:And i would also like to thank Glen for her help with this!
