The Translator's Handbook: With Special Reference to Conference Translation from French and Spanish - Hardcover
Synopsis
Practical hints on the tricks of the translation trade are not easy to come by, but The Translator's Handbook is intended to be just that — a vade-mecum for daily use, to be kept within easy reach. The old hand momentarily at a loss may find just the right synonym among the selection offered. The less experienced but eager translator will find here in addition a wealth of information on the day-to-day problems of turning French and Spanish into English, written in an easy, readable style that imparts instruction without appearing to do so.
