Translation involves a combination of language skills and subject knowledge. Just knowing a language is not enough to be able to translate, nor does extensive knowledge of the subject area result in a comprehensible translation. An academic career and more than twenty-five years' experience as a translator and interpreter back me up. I assess and practice translation with a team of professional colleagues and I am a member of professional organizations that have strict membership requirements. (See home page).
