I like to help people understand things, to find their way when they are lost. I can’t help talking to tourists who are holding a map, looking confused at the corner of a street. Similarly, thanks to my understanding of a language, I feel very proud I can help someone else understand the content of a conversation, or acquire some piece of information. I believe it is this underlying desire that makes the difference when it comes to professional translation and interpreting. My studies took me to various places in the United Kingdom, Ireland and Japan and along the way I was able to pick up a wide variety of English (and Japanese) words and expressions. However, because simply knowing a language is not enough to be a good translator, I specialised in English - French translation when I was in the UK and in Japanese - English interpreting during my time in Japan. I believe translation is about having a keen eye for detail. Some translators would even say that you have to become a “maniac”! A translation is never perfect but as a translator I always strive to find the right word even if it takes a lot of time. As for interpreting, I personally believe that what really makes a difference is being committed to life-long learning. Words, just like technologies, change extremely fast and it is vital always to be on the look out for new concepts and new words to define them. In other words an interpreter never sleeps because he must keep an eye open on the movement of society, and a translator never sleeps because he has to meet deadlines to finish his work! Please contact me to discuss any project, or simply to make friends!! | |
