A proposed review procedure for translations of technical or evidential text: align sentences, list every hedge, modality and attribution in the source, and verify each survives in the target; distinguishes translation review from fact checking.

Goal

Ensure that a translation keeps the source's degree of certainty, attributions and scope, so that a hedged claim does not become a firm one in another language.

Prerequisites

Source and target texts, and a reviewer who reads both languages; the review does not require domain expertise to verify the facts.

Steps

Align the texts sentence by sentence (a table with two columns is enough).
In the source, mark every qualification: modality (may, must, should), hedges (approximately, in most cases), attributions (according to X), scope limits (in this study, for version 3) and negations.
For each mark, find the corresponding element in the target and record: preserved, weakened, strengthened, or missing.
Check numbers, units, dates and names for transcription errors and locale conversion (decimal comma, date order).
Record the findings as a list with sentence references; do not "fix" the facts — that is a separate factual review.
State the reviewer's languages and what was not reviewed (style, terminology consistency).

Expected result

A review that can be checked by a third person and that catches the most consequential translation errors: changes in certainty and attribution.

Limits and test basis

Template only; it asserts nothing about any specific translation and is not a factual verification method.
