Translation is a profession which involves complex abilities:

• Ability to learn, all the time

• Ability to research, when current knowledge is not enough

• Ability to make right decisions

and much work:

• Attention to detail

• Checking and double-checking

• A methodological approach, which is achieved by experience and reinvestment of knowledge acquired

When translating, we convey information from one language to another, but also a company's image. A bad translation, full of errors or carelessly made causes a negative impact on the reader, making them untrust the company that backs it up. 

Quality translation is the result of applying three basic processes to the original document:

• Reading, in order to understand

• Translating, in order to produce draft work

• Reviewing, in order to produce final work. The reviewing process should ensure the following aspects:

  • Meaning: no conceptual mistakes have been made

  • Terminology: the right terms have been used

  • Syntax: the document can be read in the target language as if it were the original 

  • Completeness: all text is translated

A professional translator must always provide the best service and the best product by:

• Working as a full-time freelancer. This way, I can apply my best efforts to supplying what my clients expect from me. 

• Focusing on  one language combination. Clients looking for an English-into-Spanish translation can be sure that command of both languages will be implemented to meet their expectations.

• Specializing in particular areas of work. My clients rest assured that I am the right person for the assignment.

• Researching when necessary. Because learning is a never-ending task. 

• Keeping abreast of new technologies. My clients reap the benefits in terms of efficiency.
