Researching or decyphering Jan 10, 2017

Many of these, but researching complicated terms or decyphering what the author actually wanted to say are certainly the aspects that consume more time. Since I translate many technical documents, many times people use the popular terms or an undue term to name a part or function that is not the commercial name. But translating Chinglish and trying to understand what the author meant is even more time-consuming.

Part of the day Jan 10, 2017

Apart from quite obvious text difficulty part of the day is equally important for me. I am certainly a morning person and I avoid evening work by all means.
