New England Translators Association Annual Translation Bash

translators

New England Translators Association

It is a pleasure to acknowledge Diego Mansilla’s involvement in the 6th annual translation bash sponsored by the New England Translators Association on Saturday, September 17, 2011. The bash is an opportunity for interested individuals to translate a 300-word passage of general interest in advance, and then discuss the challenges presented by that passage, weighing the options for each sentence with colleagues who work in the same language pair. It is a stimulating exercise that unfolds without pressure and finds people happily engaging in animated and constructive conversation.

Diego Mansilla facilitated the Spanish group this year, both competently and with charm.

We are grateful for the role he played.
