English to Italian: Open Facility Management. A successful implementation in a public administration, 2009, De Toni, Ferri, Montagner, IFMA Italia (Chapter 2 - The FM market in Europe and in Italy, Page 33) General field: Social Sciences Detailed field: Economics
Source text - English The European Union economic growth slumped in 2008. Many member countries could not avoid falling into recession during the second half of the year. The EU growth rate went down from 2.9% in 2007 to 0.9% in 2008 (with forecasts of –4% and –0.1% respectively in 2009 and 2010). These average growth rates hide differences among the single member countries of the Union. As concerns the countries that this chapter analyzes, the growth rates of the 2008-2010 period may be pictured in Figure 2.1: forecasts highlight that the recovery might slowly start in 2010.
Translation - Italian La crescita economica nell’Unione Europea ha notevolmente rallentato nel 2008. Numerosi stati membri non hanno potuto evitare di scivolare nella recessione durante la seconda metà dell’anno. Il tasso di crescita dell’area è sceso dal 2,9% del 2007 allo 0,9% del 2008 (con previsioni di –4% e –0,1% rispettivamente nel 2009 e 2010). Questi tassi medi nascondono grandi differenze tra i vari stati appartenenti all’Unione. Per quanto concerne i paesi analizzati in questa sede, osserviamo i tassi di crescita del periodo 2008-2010: le previsioni per i prossimi due anni sono negative, l’affondo della crisi si verificherà nel 2009 e la ripresa comincerà lentamente nel 2010.

Profile
An Italian native speaker with two master's degrees in Political economy and EU law and economy from the Italian education system, I had a first 10 years' career in macroeconomic research and consulting working in Italy mainly for US organizations (US Department of State, US association, Italian government). I relocated to France in 2008 where I worked as an economics teacher at public high school and got a bachelor degree in French Linguistics and Literature from Sorbonne University. When an economic analyst I was as well an articles' writer on economic subjects but always had a big interest in literature and languages, as far as both literary and linguistic issues are concerned. That's why I decided to attend a master's course on comparative literature and translation, also to give a formal credential to my skills I built working as a translator during the last 12 years side by side with my economist career. Besides that I authored original papers in English and French and performed quality assurance on the written products of subordinates. Please feel free to visit my page on Linkedin.
Language pairs and services
I am an experienced translator from English and French into Italian, as well as from English and Italian into French. I have a strong ability in research, etymology (I studied Latin and ancient Greek, as well as some Arabic), attention to detail, excellent writing skills as grammar and orthography are concerned, project management skills (on-time and in-budget delivery of a quality product). I specialize in all economics-related subjects (from macroeconomics to marketing), journalism, international affairs, politics, as well as medical translations, education, resumes, websites, culture, arts, food, wine and tourism. My teacher job, coupled with an innate eye for detail, makes me an excellent proofreader and copy-editor in Italian and French.
