Endleaf :
Believe in quality and precision as a creative imperative for all Translation Work – literary, technical, documentation or routine. Consider myself as an integrator as well as provider of quality Sylheti and Bengali Translation Resources – especially for Sylheti, including its Bangladeshi variant (spoken mostly by immigrants in UK and USA ) and its slightly different Indian variety (spoken mostly in North Eastern India and pockets of East India).
Write, translate and work under the pseudonym of wordsmith – a name, a noun, a class that applies for all workers with words of the past, present and who are yet to come.

Wordsmith Quality Model WQM 10 – An Attempt to Make a Homebrewed Quality Model Quality, like any product or service is a mixture of many tangibles and intangibles. Same in the case of translation and localization sector. I would rather say that Quality in this business is all the more complex and nuanced. Our Quality Model, called LQM-10 or 10 point Language Quality Model is a weighed average of the factors described in this article. However no quality model can be said to be perfect and exhaustive.
Designing a Stress Test for a Translation Project — Towards a Global BenchmarkThe essay argues that there exists no reference or benchmark for setting the deadline, quality and cost ratio of a translation project. There is no risk management process planned out and causes problem later. The essay proposes a model and then goes to explain how users of TC or such portals can input such a model to make global benchmarks for each language and type of projects.
Price as Signature: Advice to New Translators and Agencies from IndiaThe article advises linguists and agencies from India as how price quoted tells many things about oneself as well the services. It explains how price is something like signature and a race to the bottom can only compromise tommorrow’s wealth and profit for today’s gain. It cautions as how a linguist and agency from India can devaluate itself into a low-cost, low-trust and low-valued provider by not taking adequate consideration in pricing.
Survival Story of a Language Professional Turned Agency OwnerThere are a number of language professionals who are turning to be Agency owners, by choice or absent-mindedly or by sheer accident. I had found myself absent-mindedly into the role of an Agency owner while I started formally as a Language Professional some five years back. I have tried to elaborate core challenges faced while this transition happened. I have also tried to emphasize as how social networking and Internet’s evolution pose opportunities and threats.
Practitioner’s Tips for Email Marketing in Language Business — Part IFor a linguist and a small agency, email marketing is the only feasible option to reach far flung clients. However, nature of email and nature of the Internet have changed considerably in last few years. Though fundamentals are same, but some tuning is needed to use this simple, virtually costless, high ROI tool with highest effectiveness. One of the issues is to understand how human behaviour interacts with email and changes both.
