Translation requires attention to register, genre, interpersonal factors and lexicogrammatical detail. In both translating and editing, I ensure that the intentions of the author are met through careful liaison with the customer before working on the text.
The aim is to provide a polished final text, which both captures the style of the original and expresses the message in a natural and accurate manner. All deadlines are meticulously observed.
