Translation

Professional translations, right first time

Polished, professional translations from Italian and French into English.

Deliver your message to an international audience in style: I can provide you with a natural-sounding translation that reflects the style, nuances and eloquence of the source text, plus SEO optimisation if required.

You can rest assured that I take your texts as seriously as you do: I take time to research the subject matter in depth, to ensure accurate specialist terminology and references.

ENGLISH COPY EDITING

Prepping for publication

Need to correct an English text written by a non-native speaker? Want to get your academic paper published?

Have you been asked to write a business presentation in English?

Or perhaps you're an English-speaking entrepreneur but struggle with putting your ideas into compelling, polished language: I can help you with that too.

Troubleshooting less-than-perfect English is a challenge I enjoy! With my hawk-eye for typos and errors of grammar and syntax, I will polish and refine your text until it flows smoothly and is ready to be published or presented, online or offline.

Transcreation

Give your brand an authentic English voice

Transcreation, or 'creative translation', is the perfect solution for advertising or marketing copy as it allows you to engage with a specific international audience in a way that truly speaks to them and their mindset.

Based on your brief, I can produce a creative, well-written English adaptation of your digital marketing content or advertising copy that's tailored to the cultural expectations of your ideal customers.
