Have you ever heard the saying: “Not my circus, not my monkeys”?  I use it all the time, yet never realized that it is translated from Polish.  Dr. Lynne Bowker, professor of translation technologies and information systems at the University of Ottawa, recently returned from Poland, where she was collaboratively researching ways to make academia more language inclusive. Scholars from around the world are encouraged to publish and attend conferences in English, yet fewer than 10% of the researchers in the world are Anglophones. In fact, for many it's their second, third, or even fourth language.  Imagine being a world expert in a subject but unable to share your findings and learn from others unless you speak English. With pressing global issues such as food insecurity, global warming, refugees, war, and more, Dr. Bowker set out to find ways in which AI translation or Machine Translation (MT) could help.  Dr. Bowker specializes in language technology. In her recent book, “Demystifying Translation,” she explains why AI and MT translation are today not yet able to solve the issues related to cross-lingual communication – there are limits to what the technology can do and it's not trustworthy.  The biggest challenges facing authors in academia are the ability to:  Read others' writings.  Write in English.  Leveraging AI/MT varies for each of these situations. To tackle the first challenge, the researcher can use automated translation to get the “gist” of what an article says and, with their specialized knowledge, do a pretty good job of figuring out its meaning.  In the second scenario, non-English speaking researchers typically don't possess English writing skills strong enough to clearly write their findings. This means that they would need to pay someone to write it or have a highly skilled translator edit their original draft. To simplify access to research, the academic community must get to the point of accepting publications in a researcher's native language, with readers relying on AI/MT for gist translations. Lacking this option, many researchers will continue to opt out of publishing or presenting at conferences to share important research.  At the same time, Dr. Bowker stresses the importance of recognizing that language technology is not perfect and ultimately requires nuanced discussion and experienced judgment regarding where and how to use it. It's not merely a discussion as to whether AI/MT will replace humans in translation.  Ironically, automated machine technology is old tech. In the 1940s during World War 2, experts developed tools to decipher what the enemy was saying – spying tools, essentially. The technology relied on dictionaries and linguistic rules for grammar to translate, and had particular trouble with synonyms (two meanings for one word) and polysemies (words with more than one meaning – for example “pen,” as in a writing pen or play pen). Ultimately, the technology was used only by professional translators because it was not good enough to release.  Throughout the ‘80s and ‘90s, the technology in general improved – it became faster, smaller, and required less storage. Programmers started thinking of new ways to process language – by using data-driven approaches instead of linguistic rules. Translation quality improved in general but still fell far short of high quality.  Current advances have changed from data-driven analysis to pattern identification, whereby machine language learning develops a memory by ingesting vast amounts of multilingual text. Without the large amounts of data, the technology is useless.  Dr. Bowker recalls a time when Canadian weather forecasters struggled to hire English-French translators because the work was so repetitive – the words and format were always the same. After a few months, even new undergraduate translators quit from boredom. By leveraging AI/MT, the organization could save time, money, and effort.  Technology still struggles with:  Languages that have less content – languages like Welsh and Danish have fewer speakers, thus less content is produced. It's challenging enough to develop a machine learning (ML) model that can translate from English to Welsh, let alone from Welsh to Danish.  Unusual topics – in research, topics are usually novel and don't have a gathered history of translation. This challenges the technology to find appropriate translations.  Hallucinations – one team set out to test whether AI could properly classify an animal as a huskie or a wolf. After training the model on hundreds of pictures, its responses were mostly accurate; however, upon further inspection the researchers figured out that the model had been trained to identify wolves by snowy backgrounds, versus huskies in backyards. Thus, the model looked at the wrong information. Training for proper identification of skin lesions produced the same outcome – the model identified cancerous lesions by looking for a ruler in the picture.  Misogynism and racism – models learn and parrot back what it ingests and, simply put, the Internet provides lots of questionable content.  The bottom line, according to Dr. Bowker, is that while we are still far away from a world in which automated translation can replace human translation, the language industry will only benefit from educating people on proper and effective translation methods, in the meantime.  When translating your material, remember the iron triangle (aka project management triangle), which illustrates how the balance among three project constraints – scope, time, and budget – affects quality. Adjusting for any one constraint necessarily affects one or both of the other variables:   Fast and cheap = lower quality  Fast and quality = very expensive  High quality = pricey and slow  Finally, we agree that the industry conversation will turn toward the increasing need for experts in global content strategy. Think about the content along your buyer's (or stakeholder's) journey – from first encounter to raving fan. A thoughtfully planned strategy alongside clearly defined processes and technologies will guarantee high-quality content for every audience, while saving your employees time and effort.  Links:  Book: https://www.routledge.com/De-mystifying-Translation-Introducing-Translation-to-Non-translators/Bowker/p/book/9781032109244  With a Creative Commons (CC BY-NC-SA) license: https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/oa-mono/10.4324/9781003217718/de-mystifying-translation-lynne-bowker   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lynne-bowker-0112996/?originalSubdomain=ca  Email: lbowker@uottawa.ca  Connect with Wendy - https://www.linkedin.com/in/wendypease/  Music: Fiddle-De-Dee by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com

Speaking about the reason why the Prophet reconnected the Asiatics of North America with their fellow Asiatics worldwide with a focus on the Asiatics of North, South, Central America, and the Caribbean (West Indies). The Prophet let it be known in chapter 45 that the world is MUCH larger than the United States. We must remember this and keep in mind that the Forerunner to the Prophet, a modern day John the Baptist, Marcus Mosiah Garvey, and his wife Amy Jacques Garvey were both born in Jamaica (West Indian). Other notable leaders as well such as Malcolm X and Minister Farrakhan are also West Indian. Farrakhan's parents are from St. Kitts and Jamaica while Malcolm X's mother was from Grenada and his father was from Georgia. The mother of Malcolm X, Louise Little is from the island of Grenada. Apparently her grandparents were “liberated Africans” from West Africa, probably Nigeria that arrived in Grenada in the mid nineteenth century. Their family still owns land in Grenada to this day.2 “She (Louise) left Grenada in 1917, she arrived in Montreal, and then lived there for about two years. In Montreal, she was first introduced to Garveyism through her uncle, Edgerton Langdon, the son of Mary Jane and Jupiter Langdon. In Montreal, she joined the Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA), founded by Marcus Garvey and Amy Ashwood Garvey, and later met Earl Little, who was from Georgia. They married in Montreal, moved down to Philadelphia, and then to Omaha in 1921. And, lastly, I've had the opportunity to meet with some of her grandchildren and great grandchildren. She has a very large and extended family in Michigan and elsewhere.”2 “She (Louise) was a committed Garveyite grassroots activist. She spoke multiple languages—English French, Patois. She taught her children the French alphabet. She insisted that her children read newspapers such as the Negro World, the official periodical of the UNIA, and newspapers from Grenada. ”2 “Point du Sable married a Potawatomi woman named Kitihawa (Christianized to Catherine) on 27 October 1788, in a Catholic ceremony in Cahokia in the Illinois Country, a longtime French colonial settlement on the east side of the Mississippi River.[15] It is likely that this couple was married earlier in the 1770s in a Native American tradition.”3 “Kitihawa Point Du Sable (also known by her Christian name, Catherine)[1] was a Potawatomi woman who, with her husband Jean Baptiste, established the first permanent settlement in what is now the city of Chicago.”4 “A December 2019 article in the Chicago Tribune mentions a proposal to rename Lake Shore Drive for Jean Baptiste Point du Sable.[4] The article suggests rethinking the history of the city and considering the centuries that Native American people used the area as a trading post -- and renaming Lake Shore Drive for Kitihawa instead.”4 Sources: 1. http://www.noirguides.com/facesofafrobelizeans.html 2. https://www.aaihs.org/on-louise-little-the-mother-of-malcolm-x-an-interview-with-erik-s-mcduffie/ 3. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_Baptiste_Point_du_Sable 4. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitihawa_Point_du_Sable https://theskydeck.com/chicago-facts/who-founded-chicago/ Saudi Arabia - Culture, Etiquette and Business Practices (commisceo-global.com) A Black Imam Breaks Ground in Mecca - The New York Times (nytimes.com) Sheik Adil Kalbani - Search (bing.com) Bedouin (3) | Al Ain | Pictures | United Arab Emirates in Global-Geography Afro-Peruvian rights of national interest in Peru | News | ANDINA - Peru News Agency https://www.bing.com/images/search?q=afro+peruvians&form=HDRSC3&first=1&cw=1427&ch=773 https://pacotaylor.medium.com/ancient-chinese-secret-these-14-phenomenal-photos-reveal-there-were-indeed-black-chinese-6261468b4102 https://realhistoryww.com/world_history/ancient/China_2.htm --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/moorish-americans/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/moorish-americans/support

Read along to practice your English and to learn the English phrases C'EST LA VIE and DÉJÁ VUIn this English lesson, I wanted to help you learn the English phrase c'est la vie or is this actually a French phrase? By the way, there are French phrases that we use in everyday English and c'est la vie is one of them, and it means, that's life. Sometimes you have a situation where something goes a certain way and there's no real way to explain it. So in an English conversation you would just shrug and say, "Well, c'est la vie." And basically what we're saying is, "That's life." Life has its ups and downs. Sometimes good things happen, sometimes bad things happen. Sometimes it's hard to understand why those things happen and then we just say, c'est la vie.WANT FREE ENGLISH LESSONS? GO TO YOUTUBE AND SEARCH, "BOB THE CANADIAN"If you enjoy these lessons please consider supporting me at: http://www.patreon.com/bobthecanadianBy the way, there's another French term we use and that's deja vu. In English, people often forget to put the accents on it, by the way, but deja vu is a situation where you feel like you're experiencing something that happened before. In English, you would say, "Oh, I just had deja vu. I felt like I've already done this." Maybe you're reading a news story, and you feel like you've read the story before or maybe you just have a weird moment in your day where you think, "I think I've already done this." In that situation, you would say you're experiencing deja vu. By the way, in French, this actually is the past participle of the verb voir, and this means already so it kind of roughly translates as already seen.Anyways, enough of the French lesson. To review, in an English conversation, you may use this phrase, c'est la vie. You can also say that's life. Either one will work and people will understand what you're saying. You just say, "Hmm, c'est la vie." Or, "Oh, that's life." And if you experience deja vu, it means you have had a situation in life where you feel like you've already lived that moment that it's already happened to you. It can be very, very strange to experience deja vu.But hey, let's look at a comment from a previous video. This comment is from Ruslan. Thank you for the lesson, dear teacher Bob. I love that nice, quiet neighborhood you were walking around in this video. Everybody has such a small fence around their houses so I guess house robbery does not happen in this area. And my response, it does happen, but not too often. It is a very peaceful neighborhood.So thanks Ruslan for that comment. Let's talk a little bit about crime in Canada. We do have crime. Houses do get robbed. We are like every other country in the world. We try our best to keep our crime rate down, but there are still bad people and things still do happen. So yes, people do have their house houses robbed from time to time. We don't tend to have a lot of fences, but a lot of houses have security alarms or alarm systems and we probably in smaller towns have a very low crime rate. It's probably more of a worry in the bigger cities like Toronto or Edmonton or Calgary. So yes, we do have crime. It's even sometimes dangerous out in the countryside where I live, although people steal different things when they're out there. People tend to steal things like snowmobiles and four wheelers and farm equipment. So yes, there is crime. We do our best to stop it.Hey, I'm out here at our local soccer fields because as I understand it, the WSupport the show

We end the crowded ninth evil pouch of the schismatics with . . . a poet: Bertran de Born. A poet Dante had previously praised. A poet who wrote poetry that is a direct influence on Dante's earlier works. And a poet who has actually been with us throughout Inferno, Canto XXVIII, even if we didn't realize it. Join me, Mark Scarbrough, as we explore the historical and meta-literary details in his complicated passage--and then turn to an exploration of Bertran's use of a word that has come to dominate Dante criticism: "contrapasso." Here are the segments for this episode of WALKING WITH DANTE: [02:40] My English translation of this passage: Inferno, Canto XXVIII, lines 112 - 142. If you'd like to read along or drop a comment on this episode, please go to my website, markscarbrough.com. [06:09] Who was Bertran de Born? [10:26] Who was "the young king" Bertran de Born speaks about? [14:02] What was Bertran de Born's place in the English/French civil wars? [15:55] The first Biblical citation in the passage: Ahitophel, Absalom, and David. [17:36] The second Biblical citation in the passage: See if there is any sorrow like my sorrow. [21:53] Dante has twice mentioned Bertran de Born in other works. [23:11] Why does this passage begin with a veracity problem? [25:43] Bertran de Born's poetry has been in Canto XXVIII all along. [28:04] Why is Bertran de Born here? [30:59] What is "contrapasso"? And what are the limits of its meaning? [36:11] There may be two types of "contrapasso": actual and metaphorical. [42:48] Muhammad may bookend Canto XXVIII. [46:19] Rereading Inferno, Canto XXVIII, lines 112 - 142.

I spoke with Katelyn Aronson about life and her wonderful new children's book Clovis Keeps His Cool (Page Street, 2021). Clovis used to struggle with his temper, but ever since he took over his late grandmother's china shop, he's been learning how to manage it. He pours tea, listens to soothing music, and always keeps Granny's words in mind: “Grace, grace, nothing broken to replace.” But when rivals from his football days come to heckle him at the shop, Clovis faces a big challenge that even Granny's words and deep breaths might not be enough for. Katelyn Aronson grew up in Southern California, where she went on to work in independent children's bookshops. She won her first trip to Paris in a bookstore window display contest, and the rest is history. Today, Katelyn lives between France and Switzerland and works as a language instructor. She is completing her MA on English/French translation (what else?) at the Sorbonne (where else?). Mel Rosenberg is a professor of microbiology (Tel Aviv University, emeritus) who fell in love with children's books as a small child and now writes his own.

Richard Medcalf describes himself as "what you get if you were to put a McKinsey consultant, a slightly unorthodox pastor and an entrepreneur into a blender". Richard is an executive coach & leadership consultant to exceptional founders & CEOs and their leadership teams. His clients are elite performers who've already achieved incredible things, and still have the ambition to 10x their impact and influence and achieve something that seems impossible right now. That can involve 1:1 coaching, taking the leadership team to its next level, or scaling high-performance culture throughout the business. After a Masters Degree at Oxford University, where he came top in his year, Richard started his career in a premier strategy consultancy where he rose to become the youngest-ever Partner. He then spent 11 years at tech giant Cisco, firstly elevating Cisco's relevance in the C-suite of its Fortune 100 customers before being selected for an elite team set up by Cisco's President and CEO, John Chambers and Chuck Robbins, to catalyse strategic partnerships & new business models. Richard has advised Founders and C-level execs for 20 years,  from Fortune 100 companies (Comcast, Mastercard, Sanofi, Sky, Orange, Bosch…) to high-growth tech firms (in AI, networking, robotics, fintech, …). He has overseen >$2B of deals. Keen to marry the disciplines of strategy and leadership in service of his clients, he qualified as a senior leadership consultant and executive coach before founding Xquadrant in 2017. Richard is bi-national English/French, lives near Paris, and is happily married and the proud father of two. He's also a licensed lay minister in the Anglican Church, and has an insatiable love for spicy food and the electric guitar.   https://xquadrant.com/ https://xquadrant.com/podcast/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/richardmedcalf/    A bullet point list of facts: British-born, living in France since 1999 Top of my year at Oxford University Youngest-ever Partner at global tech-sector strategy consultancy 11 years in exec roles at tech giant Cisco, including being recruited to an elite team set up by the CEO to catalyse strategic initiatives at board level Non-exec advisor to a $3B global tech company Overseen $2B of transactions Grown partner revenues 18x in 18 months Created a $100M revenue pipeline Turned around a declining business by adding $30M to revenues Secured contracts as large as $40M Released over $1B of customer benefits Worked at senior level at global brands like Vodafone, Sanofi, Mastercard, Comcast, Tesco, Air Liquide, Orange, Cisco … as well as with a host of smaller companies and high-growth scale-ups Happily married with two wonderful kids Slightly too enthusiastic about rock music and spicy food   1:1 coaching clients include: The CEO of a $3 billion worldwide IT services corporation The founder and chairman of a global fibre-optic telecoms company The UK chief executive and chairman of a global pharmaceuticals firm A Founder named Entrepreneur of the Year by Ernst & Young for "growth & profitability that most can only dream of" The CEO of a scale-up tech 'unicorn' that recently raised record-levels of financing for their innovative B2B platform The COO of a leading Artificial Intelligence firm The CTO of a leading autonomous vehicle brand The CHRO of a 3500-employee global systems integrator The CFO of a B2B tech services company
