Abstract: Examples described herein provide various devices that enable users to participate in a multiplayer session. The examples allow a user that is unable to speak, or that is incapable of speaking, to participate in an in-session voice chat by inputting text and having the text converted to speech (e.g., synthesized voice data) that can then be sent to other devices participating in the session. The user enables a text-to-speech conversion feature on his or her own device. Based on the enabled feature, functionality enabling text to be entered is activated and the entered text is converted into speech data.

Abstract: Examples described herein provide various devices that enable users to participate in a session. The examples allow a user that is unable to hear, or that is incapable of hearing, to participate in an in-session voice chat by receiving text messages that have been converted from speech to text (e.g., transcribed messages). The user enables a speech-to-text conversion feature on his or her own device. Based on the enabled feature, a notification can be sent to other devices participating in the session. Based on the notification, the other devices are tasked with capturing utterances and sending corresponding speech data to a speech-to-text conversion device so that voice communications can be converted to text messages. Subsequent to conversion, the text messages can be displayed in a chat interface presented as part of the displayed content for the session.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and computer-readable media employing computer-readable components for localization of data included in software programs are described. The computer-readable components comprise data elements defined based on a software data schema; and an owned comment data element comprising information about the localization of the data included in the software programs and an associated owner with permission to create, access, and manipulate the owned comment data element. The owned comment data element is included in other data elements. The owned comment data element may also be included in a list of owned comment elements comprising at least one owned comment data element.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and computer-readable media including computer-readable components for the localization of data included in software programs are described. The computer-readable components comprise data elements defined by a software data schema; a property repository data element for storing a plurality of data properties about the data elements; and an owned comment data element comprising information about the localization of the data included in software programs and an owner with permission to create, access, and manipulate the owned comment data element.

Abstract: A user interface and associated methods for machine aided authoring and translation is provided. The user interface can display strings and associated metadata to assist with authoring and translations. The metadata can be used to mark the strings. The metadata can include one or more constraints which correspond to evaluation criteria and one or more anchor points operable to project the constraints against a string.

Abstract: Generally described, aspects of the present invention are directed toward providing available source data and localized information to a user. More specifically, a source string is obtained and used to retrieve a corresponding set of available source data. The source data can include available resources or available content. Further, the resources can correspond to strings. An element from the set of available source data can be selected and used to obtain data associated with the selected element. The associated data can include localized information corresponding to the selection of source data. Thus, available source data and corresponding localized information can be obtained and used in an application or document.
