Project details

The project that I have taken charge of is FreeCAD. FreeCAD is a software or a tool created to support architects and engineers to build 3D model for specialized objects related to mostly Mechanical Engineering and Civil Engineering. It's a completely open and free software. FreeCAD is often used design engineering products particularly in Mechanical Engineering. In addition, it's also used in other sectors such as architecture and building construction. Likewise other modern 3D modern CAD software, it has a range of 2D tools to sketch out 2D shapes or extract specific design from 3D models to create 2D drawings. FreeCAD supports many different operating system and is running well into Windows, Linux/Unix and Mac OSX. As a translator of the project, I have a great chance to understand better its values and its complexity. I believe it is an incredibly useful tool for Vietnamese engineers and architects in their work. I'm currently a civil engineer, so I believe my translation is accurate and clear enough to understand. Sometimes, there are several difficult terms but my other team members and I confer to find the most appropriate translated words, resulting in a quality translation.

Contribution Specifications

Translation Overview:

This is my first translation work for FreeCAD project. My motivation is that I desire to be able to help Vietnamese community access enormous knowledge from overseas in the role of a translator. I hope that my work will help Vietnamese citizens especially engineers and architects have a deep understanding of FreeCAD through reading the document. I also strongly believe in the concept of open source and in helping each other. My work involves a translation of the project from English into Vietnamese. This time I have dealt with the topic: Arch . Thanks to the translation, I had a chance to broaden my horizon and especially understand more about the software and specialized knowledge related to building an arch and its objects.

Languages :

The project's source language is English and it was translated into Vietnamese. In addition to collaborating on Open Source Projects on Crowdin, I also work as an interpreter for some projects in Vietnam. You can read more about my English ability and my experience of translation in my application post.
