Word choice matters when localizing a #teleplay or #screenplay. Localization of such a creative work should preserve and convey the experience and nature of the #story, #plot, and characters.

Yes, I notice when captions are more interpretations than verbatim translations for languages I understand. With captioning on such productions, there are occasions to learn helpful English words I might not otherwise encounter — words like “scree” and “transhumance”.

#LabPlot, the project for #statisticians, #researchers, #scientists, #engineers, #educators and #students, publishes version 2.12 of its #FREE comprehensive #dataAnalysis and #visualization tool. 🚀

This version adds more plots and #plot sub-types, expands the number of functions for spreadsheets, includes new analysis tools, as well as an experimental software development kit.

The project is partly funded through @NGIZero.

#PennedPossibilities 645 — What was the most unexpected challenge you encountered while writing your WIP?

I'm talking about my current dark fantasy story (WIP): I'm still having a hard time figuring out how to incorporate a particular plot twist.
