Corinne McKay | French to English 哥琳娜·麦凯｜法语－英语 A colleague recently commented that, ‘translators know things that almost nobody else knows’, and that’s what I love most about my job. I’ve translated brochures about pneumatic trash collection systems, cards for a zombie-themed role-playing game, reports about polio vaccination programs and the autobiography of a Sherpa from the 1950s. Very few people ever learn about these topics, much less get paid to read and write about them; that’s why being a translator is the best job for people who love languages! 我有个同事最近评价：“一个翻译知道的东西，别人几乎都没听说过”，这就是我最喜欢翻译的地方。我曾经译过气动垃圾收集系统的简介，僵尸主题的角色扮演游戏卡片，小儿麻痹疫苗项目的研究报告，甚至还有一位50后夏尔巴人的自传！这些课题甚至很少有人听过，更别说有人付钱请你去阅读和书写了。所以，对语言爱好者来说，翻译是最好的工作！ |
