Proves that... May 13, 2012

...apart from the topic (which was really touching in this case), it is important to be able to express, present, and explain properly. As translators, we often underestimate these skills. I encourage everyone (starting with myself) to get training about how to present and transmit ideas properly. It would mean a hell of a difference in our profession.

Why? Just because "911" was mentioned at one point?

I was personally very touched by the grandmother who left a singing birthday message. It very much reminded me of my grandmother...
