Objectives: Translate the Convexity Assessment Guide into the Portuguese language and perform its semantic, linguistic, conceptual and cultural validation. Methods: Translation study, qualitative descriptive, following the recommended phases: translation, back translation, comparison of original and translated versions back to Portuguese, validation by national experts committee. Results: It was obtained 400 evaluations – 49 annulled and 351 valid – which represents the total used for the agreement analysis of the items. After the analysis, there were six discordant items, reviewed according to the experts’ suggestions, obtaining, then, a greater agreement of 90% in all items evaluated. Conclusion: There was a high level of agreement among the evaluator’s committee, ensuring the continuity of the study with the cross-cultural validation of the Convexity Guide for the Brazilian reality. This research promoted the translation of an instrument that assists in the clinical indication of collector devices for stomas. The validation of the translation into the Portuguese language was obtained, being this the first phase of the process of cross-cultural validation.

In recent years, as the cross-cultural exchanges between China and other countries have become more frequent, more and more English film and television works have flooded into the Chinese market, attracting the attention of many audiences. In order to enable Chinese audiences to better appreciate these film and television works, high-quality and high-level subtitle translation is indispensable. Since China started late in film and television sector, there are still many immature places in the research on subtitle translation. This article aims to analyze several classic English film and television works, summarize, and study the detailed factors that affect subtitle translation.

1. Attributes desired in the gammons of bacon pigs are discussed, together with the methods whereby they are measured.2. An experiment is described in which 16 judges made visual assessments of the qualities of the gammons of 10 carcasses of bacon weight from photographs, both of the fresh carcasses and of the cured bacon sides.3. The judges did not show a high level of agreement in their rankings of the gammons. Although the overall rankings by the panel of the gammons on the fresh carcasses and on the bacon sides were similar, neither ranking was related to the composition or yield of the gammons.4. The judges showed better agreement in their rankings of photographs of the cut surfaces of these 10 gammons and the cross-sections of the cooked gammons produced from them; in this case their preferences were related to the lean content of the gammons.5. A second trial in which 25 judges scored 12 actual bacon sides for the quality of their gammons showed an even lower level of agreement between the judges' rankings, and again there was little agreement between the overall rankings of the panel and the results of dissections.
