Thought of the Day

 

“Pure love is that which has no extraneous element, and that element cannot be other than egoism; purifying love means suppressing egoism completely.”

Letter Trom The Editor

 

 

Dear Customers,

There is quite a bit of wisdom that comes from writers in Latin America. Many North Americans are not very much aware of the refinement of some of these writers.

Our “Thought of the day” column presents a wise quote from a renowned 19th century Mexican Poet who lived well into the 20th century. A priest throughout his life, Luis Maria Martinez also became Bishop and Archbishop of the city of Mexico.

Prices in the translation business have come down a bit. This is good for you, the customer. This is a good time to revise your budget for documentation in other languages and perhaps squeeze another document or two.

Translation Tip 4 – The Wait-to-the-Last-Minute-Syndrome

The company that performs your translation is crafting your image to your foreign customers. If your documentation has taken six months to compile, revise, and edit, it is critical to allocate sufficient time to achieve similar high-quality results in a foreign language. For the large-scale projects, short time lines or simultaneous release, the scheduling and management of the translation process are as important as the translation itself.

Sincerely,

Jaime Minino
