Translation
"The best translation is not that which is most like the original
but which is the most different from it."
Gamaliel Bradford
I translate general texts as well as texts in the fields of journalism, tourism and travel, science and literature. I will move heaven and earth to make a professional Dutch translation that accurately conveys the message and ideas of your English or French source text. Since translations can only be considered a success if they are no longer recognisable as translations, my final texts do not show any traces of the source language or the translation process. Of course the client's demands too will be taken into account during that whole process, so that all parties will be satisfied with the final result.
As a native speaker of the Dutch language I only deliver Dutch translations since only working into the native language can always result in high-quality target texts. In other words, your project is always in the good hands of a professional and you can rest assured that the quality will be maintained!
Revision and proofreading
"To improve one's style means to improve one's thoughts."
Friedrich Nietzsche
Errors do not only considerably irritate readers, they can also seriously damage a reputation. Are you stuck with a Dutch project that could still be improved? Leave it in my care and I will polish it until it is perfect. I pay attention to important aspects like spelling, grammar and style as well as to sentence and text structure. The final result will be a fluent text in which readers will no longer encounter language errors nor inconsistencies. And last but not least: it will also meet your expectations, since I am only satisfied if you are too!
