Putting my skills to use to help someone else Sep 4, 2015

It's a service thing - I can use what I know to help meet somebody's needs.

And I love researching terms and subjects and learning new things, too. That's the bonus for me.

Playing around and inside of words and authors Sep 5, 2015

Let's think aloud: written translation has much of a game, of playing. You are the author of the final text, after understanding it, analyzing it with care, surgically choosing each and every word to express it in the final language, blending so various aspects within each word, each phrase, each paragraph, each general context. As a translator you play with meanings, shape, esthetics, precision, emotions derived from what you deliver to your readers, ideology, omnipresent politics, recreation. ... See more
Let's think aloud: written translation has much of a game, of playing. You are the author of the final text, after understanding it, analyzing it with care, surgically choosing each and every word to express it in the final language, blending so various aspects within each word, each phrase, each paragraph, each general context. As a translator you play with meanings, shape, esthetics, precision, emotions derived from what you deliver to your readers, ideology, omnipresent politics, recreation. And of course, language and creativity. Personally I enjoy very much such a vast play, including the construction of new versions rivaling and even overcoming, at times, the original writing. Not every writer is better than you. And if she or he were, you can always catch up with her or him, producing your best.Collapse

Two most precious things to me: freedom and using my talents Sep 8, 2015

1 a) Freedom (of choosing the time, place, and object of my work, and of choosing my clients). (A joy shared with other freelancers.)

1 b) The pleasure of working with a text which I do not have to create ; ) (but I have translated and likely would go on translating even not being paid for it). (A joy unique to translation.)
