| | Textpertise 50 yrs NL>EN Commerce Finance Law & more United Kingdom Native in English Freelancer | Bio: Executive Summary

Translate Dutch emanating from The Netherlands, Belgium, Indonesia, Suriname and the Netherlands Antilles to English (Default UK, USA on request) and have experience of t...ranslating almost every kind of document in almost every field of knowledge, including promotional material of all kinds. Confidentiality goes without saying. We have also arbitrated disputes related to the quality of Dutch translations.
More detail
Textpertise Translations is a husband and wife partnership. The partners have been doing Dutch to English translations since 1970. I am a native speaker of English (U.S.A.) and my husband is a native speaker of Dutch. I have a BA Summa Cum Laude from the City University New York and an MA from Columbia University in the City of New York, both in English Literature. I studied Dutch at the (then) Technische Hogeschool Eindhoven (now renamed the Technical University Eindhoven). My husband is an Ingenieur Elektrotechniek (approximate equivalent MSc. in Electrical Engineering) from Eindhoven. I was born in the U.S.A., he was born in The Netherlands. We have both been living and working in the UK since 1974. We have excellent command of both U.S. English (my native language) and British English (which is the default variant of the English language into which we will translate unless instructed otherwise). We translate Dutch (emanating from Belgium, Holland, Indonesia, Suriname and the Netherlands Antilles) to English (both USA and UK varieties) and have been exposed to terminology in almost every field of knowledge, having worked with many experts on their documentation.
We are proud to have attained the highest customer satisfaction ratings in the Dutch to English language pair on Proz for Europe (and second highest in the world). Please see http://www.proz.com/?sp=wwa&sp_mode=stats
I am a Proz Certified Translator to EN15038 standard. My Proz profile and WWA recommendations can be found at http://www.proz.com./profile/924884
As a translator, I do have experience of regularly translating documents in almost every field of expertise, and although I have ticked a number of fields on my profile, the list is by no means exclusive. I therefore know I have the necessary expertise to handle complex subject matters in many fields and this is underpinned by actual experience.
We pride ourselves on being highly professional. No translation leaves here without being proofread. We strive for high quality translation output and take care to give anyone who commissions us, and by extension those who commission them, the best possible service and reliability. We also regularly deal with confidential or restricted material and are happy to sign a confidentiality agreement if required.
Charges are per source word at the higher end of the scale (and include proofreading). V.A.T. is chargeable in the UK and subject to the reverse charge elsewhere in the EU.
Because the amount of time spent proofreading text translated by others can vary widely depending on the quality of translations, we do not routinely accept proofreading jobs except in arbitrations where we charge by the hour (actual time spent). Arbitrations are cases in which the client claims a translation is inadequate in some way and the translator claims that is not the case. We are asked by the agency to give an independent opinion. This involves a line by line review of the translation with annotations and a report outlining our conclusions substantiated by an estimate of quantum if that is possible in the circumstances. All cases where we have provided such reports have settled out of court based on our reports but we would be prepared to testify if required.
Coming back to routine translations, if a translation job is truly pressurised (e.g. if it is a translation with a deadline which involves working unsocial hours), a higher than standard charge will apply. Idem ditto for highly technical translations for which research will be necessary.
My preferred CAT tool is Wordfast Pro.More Less Message: Will be pleased to attend whatever sessions I can manage that are not taking place on Yom Kippur (26 September). Recruiters interested in my profile can contact me via Proz. |
