Abstract

The scientific research is a description of the features of using resources and programs for automated translation in the context of the work of audio description translators. The presented positive arguments in favor of using these digital technologies to improve the effectiveness of the translator’s work in all fields of activity, including socially oriented translation, help to analyze the automated audio description process as a whole. The paper contains a comparative analysis of popular resources for automated translation and describes their characteristics. Recommendations are given on the use of these digital resources in the practice of an audio description translator, as well as the prospects for their development and the relevance of their use for the development of professional competencies of an audio description translator. The interpretation of the specifics of working with resources and programs for automated audio description translation is proposed.
