A close second, which is valid for any country, is the fact that journalists are not professional translators<\/strong> meaning that a lot of the world news, actions, and basically any kind of information might be twisted in the beliefs and personal views of the people who actually do the writing. With this being said, true valid information can be reached only by professional translations which if not being in the scope of the country\u2019s policy is not likely to happen any time soon. Chinglish, Hinglish, Taglish, and more\u2026<\/strong> A challenge that needs to be covered is the influence of English in modern Asian languages. We\u2019ll go back to India here, and the fact that besides English being used alongside Hindi and other languages in the country\u2019s official communication, a big part of the talk happens in Hindi and other local dialects. The lack of proper terminology in Hindi along with the necessity of having such very fast leads to modernizing English words into Hindi, creating the modern Hinglish. Add the illiteracy, the many dialects, and the low media penetration in some regions and we have quite a lot on our plate. If we can offer a solution for this, however, it is going to be related to offering professional translators and goodwill on behalf of the country itself.<\/p>\n We can\u2019t skip a country like China, when it comes to global warming and however controversial the country and its policy towards it, we are here to discuss the linguistic issues. However, when it comes to the challenges they meet it is pretty much the same as other Asian countries, meaning the diversity of languages, Chinglish, and the subjective representation of the issues from media and journalists.<\/p>\n With the growing issues of our planet, the awareness of climate change is becoming more important than ever. There are scientific forums all around the world and to be on the same page professionals need professional presentations for their scientific researches and data, which is changing fast and at the same time needs to be delivered immediately to everyone else. Sounds familiar, right?<\/p>\n However, we\u2019ve noticed that for Asian languages the awareness of scientists on the accuracy of the translation and linguistic issues that come with the language, is not that high. Here I\u2019d like to point out that for languages like Chinese, Japanese, or Thai for example one may need not only translation but Desktop publishing, too and they won\u2019t be even aware of that until the very last moment. Coming right out of our experience – even choosing the wrong font for the wrong language might make any scientist look unprofessional to a scientific forum in China for that matter.<\/p>\n
\nThe only solution to finding out relevant information is through international scientific forums held in many languages or an Asian country, where the scientific content has been delivered via professional translation.<\/p>\n
\nSo in a nutshell China\u2019s population has a very strong awareness of climate change compared to other countries in the region.<\/p>\n![\"Climate](\"https:\/\/www.1stopasia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Climate-Change-Response-in-Asia-Infographic.jpg\")
<\/p>\nProfessional scientists need professional translators!<\/h2>\n
Where am I going with all of the above?<\/h2>\n
