Translation & Language Services
Since childhood, I have had a gift for learning languages. This meant that I learned a number of languages by radio as a teenager, and deliberately studied Indo-European and Ural-Altaic languages during my degree.
As a supplement to my consultancy activities, I translate written texts from over 30 languages into English. I do not necessarily speak these languages, but am able to translate from them - maybe as people are able to solve crossword puzzles.
I have a number of contacts in professional translation, and can advise companies in choosing good collaborators for simultaneous translation or for the translation of written material from a foreign language into English, or from English into a foreign language.
The following presents translations of written materials that are convertible into English.
- Commercial, financial (company accounts, commercial agreements, tenders)
- Mail order catalogues, advertising material
- Legal (e.g. property transfer, wills, immigration, family law)
- Banking and insurance documents
- Engineering (automotive, structural, marine, oil industry, aerospace, BSI)
- Electronics, magnetics, computing
- Patents (author of several patents, book on international licensing)
- Medical, pharmaceutical, surgical (theses, medical records, accident reports, patents)
- Fiction and non-fiction books, theses, textbooks, press articles, government reports
