Give us some love back!

Well, we really appreciate that you have visited our blog. I hope you find useful information in order to understand what is involved in translating. We want to make translations easier for you just as our title expresses "Traducciones Sin Dolor y Con Sabor".

So far we know that Translation is the transmittal of written text from one language into another. Although the terms translation and interpretation are often used interchangeably, by strict definition, translation refers to the written language and interpretation to the spoken word.

Translation is the action of interpretation of the meaning of a text and the subsequent production of an equivalent text that communicates the same message in another language. The text to be translated is called the source text, and the language it is to be translated into is called the target language.

Translation must take into account constraints that include context, the rules of grammar of the two languages, their writing conventions, and their idioms. Common misconceptions are that there exists a simple word-for-word correspondence between any two languages and that translation is a straightforward mechanical process. A word-for-word translation does not take into account context, grammar, conventions, and idioms.

The demand in the translating field is greater than ever before. Many translators work as freelancers and others are employed by international organizations as well as government agencies. Non-profit and religious organizations also hire or contract the services of translators for document translation. Individuals who work as translators are highly intellectual.

To succeed in this field, you will need good organization and time management skills. The ability to meet deadlines and set priorities is very important as well. The possibilities are infinite if document translation is what you want to do.

For all of those people interested in this field please do not be afraid of failure; trying over and over again is an integral part of learning. Remember that you have the power and we can help you out!!!
