How do you ensure consistency across a large patent translation project? I build and maintain a project glossary, use translation memories in the CAT tool, review repeated terminology and claim references, and conduct a final consistency check before delivery. How would you approach unfamiliar terminology in a chemistry or mechanics patent? I would first analyze the technical context, consult authoritative Korean and English technical references and prior approved terminology, then document the selected term in the project glossary for consistent use. What is your experience with Trados, XTM, and K-Editor-compatible deliverables? I use CAT tools to manage translation memories, terminology, QA checks, and bilingual files. I can follow client file specifications and validate that HLT, HLZ, FIN, or other required outputs are delivered correctly. How do you manage urgent translation requests while maintaining patent quality? I assess scope and terminology risk early, prioritize claims and high-impact sections, communicate realistic delivery timing promptly, and reserve time for bilingual review and formatting checks before submission.
