High quality translation is an essential tool for effective communication in today’s world, whatever the message you wish to get across. Despite claims that software translation programmes are improving all the time, there is no substitute for the human brain when it comes to translation : in analysing the context of a document, the environment and culture to which it relates. At the same time computer technology is an ideal tool for supplying clear and efficient texts, which can be sent by
e-mail in an appropriate format in order to meet deadlines.

Translation is always towards the mother tongue, in this case French to English, to ensure a high quality resulting text.

Interpretation is another field where an understanding of different cultures is essential, as well as a perfect ability to speak two languages. For example helping with property purchase or administrative procedures, where a constant dialogue of exchanges between two or more parties is essential to a thorough understanding of the issue at stake.

Confidentiality is always respected, and I offer a fair and reasonable pricing system.
