\n(and a shout-out to interpreters, too!)<\/strong><\/p>\n
This is a feel-good day for translators and interpreters. We come out of our invisibility to be lauded by the masses. Okay, not exactly, but among ourselves we make sure we don\u2019t forget!<\/p>\n
As a division, PLD usually starts planning ahead of time: something funny, something interesting, something historic\u2026 the ideas start pouring in. The proof is in the blog! Our division is especially proud of the collaborative video we prepared to honor our members in 2015. Several translators and interpreters read\u00a0Elizabeth Bishop\u2019s poem \u201cOne Art,\u201d translated by Paulo Henriques Britto<\/a>.<\/p>\n Now, this year was a busy one. We had a big project we wanted to accomplish and couldn\u2019t seem to finish. We were overthinking and getting caught up on whatever was demanding urgent attention. Then suddenly, it was late September, International Translation Day was coming up, and we were empty-handed. But, as fate would have it, our big project finally took shape in time to be ready for this day. Before I go, I\u2019d like to thank LC member Beatriz Figueiredo, who singlehandedly transferred all our content to our new website and worked on the format. When we didn\u2019t know what to do, she waltzed in and showed us how it\u2019s done.<\/p>\n And congratulations to all the translators and interpreters who make this division of the ATA such a friendly, supportive, and smart community. We wish you all a happy day.<\/p>\n Mirna Soares, Administrator<\/em> Happy International Translation Day\u00a0 (and a shout-out to interpreters, too!)
