Welcome to my website

Are you looking for a bilingual secretary who will work for you just when you need her?

Or are you looking for a dedicated translator into Spanish? I can offer you very good service at a sensible cost.

My name is Mabel and I would like to invite you to read on about my various services into Spanish, my mother tongue. Or you you prefer, contact me right away!

 

I can help you with:

- Your Websites;

- Contracts and legal documents;

- Specifications;

- Marketing materials;

- Self-certified translations (with ITI seal);

- Training aids;

- Patents and oppositions;

- Correspondence;

- Desk research and telephone liaison with Spanish-speakers;

and any task that involves ensuring effective communication with the Spanish-speaking world.

 

It’s all about people and communication

I believe that translation is not just about rendering messages accurately into another language, but also understanding WHO the message is intended for and WHAT its intended use is.
I am committed to offering you a quality service that will exceed your requirements and expectations.
I have very good organizational skills, so when I take on a project, you can relax and leave it to me. I always aim to send my translation back before the agreed deadline and I am always happy to learn to use new software or technology. If something is not crystal clear or if the content doesn´t seem fully appropriate for its intended addressee, I will certainly discuss it with you and offer you an alternative that would work well in the eyes of a Spanish-speaker.

Visitor’s notice

I am a full member of the Institute of Translation and Interpreting (ITI).

You and your project will be handled professionally and in accordance with the ITI Code of Professional Conduct.

BACK IN ENGLAND SINCE MARCH

It has been rather busy since my return from Argentina. I am happy to have been involved with some very interesting projects, mostly technical but also a scientific one.

Working from Argentina

Hello. I am currently working from Argentina. It is just a temporary arrangement, but business continues as usual. I have taken out a UK Skype phone number (0151 324 0224) so that you can call me from the UK without having to pay international charges. I look forward to hearing from you.

TRANSLATION MEMORIES

I have recently added SDL Trados Suite 2009 and and SDL Trados 2007 to my existing translation memory packages and I have already used both for projects. Although I prefer SDL Trados 2007 myself as it seems similar to the older Trados versions I have used for quite a long time, I am fully aware...

MACRO-ATTENTION AND MICRO-ATTENTION

When I am working on a text, be it a translation assignment or a text I am revising, two different skills are paramount: broad comprehension ("macro-attention") and the ability to focus sharply ("micro-attention"). In other words, on the one hand I need to make sure that terminology is used...

HAPPY EASTER - WE ARE MOVING SHORTLY AFTER EASTER!

These first few months of the year have been quite busy. It has been busy in terms of workload, but I have also been busy getting things ready for our impending move. I'm not moving far... just a couple of doors away, and BT permitting, my phone number will remain the same as usual, but it will...
