The Translation Professional
|
"Translators are specialists in written communication who render texts written in one
language into another, conveying the message as faithfully as possible. They must have
an excellent knowledge of the source language and mastery of the target language, which
most often will be their mother tongue. They must be able to gather the documentary and
linguistic resources needed for their work. Their training may also enable them to offer
services such as copy writing, revision, text adaptation, etc."
