Hello ! ( I'm going to write in English because I am not quite sure of how many people can speak Spanish here ... sorry for the mistakes ... )

My name is Irene. I am spanish. I am studying my first year of Translation & Interpreting in Madrid. I was doing a job about Translation Forums for university and I found that.

It isn't really what I was looking for, but I've decided to stay because I think it is an original and excellent idea. Plus, it is a great opportunity for knowing other cultures and practising my english.

I speak Spanish, French and English. I am studying Chinese ( but I find it too difficult for me ) and I am considering learning Portuguese.

I love reading ( everything =) ) and going to the cinema. I've moved recently to Madrid and I love discovering this amazing city.

¡cHasta Luego !

Welcome Irene! There are many things you can do here for instance practising your language skills by helping people with their translations. Remember that knowing one's native language well is a prerequisite for being a good translator. I think you can be useful especially in the Spanish forum but also in other forums.

I live in Sweden where I teach Swedish and here I translate in many forums because I also know other languages for example Russian.

Hi ! Thank you all for welcoming me =)

Cloelia, I agree with you, knowing your mother tongue is as important as knowing the language of the original text. We were taught this first day at University.

See you soon !
