Lost in translation
Mood:  bright
Topic: Everyday life (weirdness)
The other day I was approached by Alberto… Alberto is this chap whom I’ve only met once via a mutual friend whom I haven’t seen in ages either. Anyway, back then he got me to translate some info pamflet on tropical fruits from English into Dutch. He actually thought I had already left Malaysia and was merely trying his luck. Whether I’d be willing to translate a website into Dutch ?? Hell, if you pay me enough I’ll even come over and clean your office…! Well. Or something like that huh huh…. What seemed to be a breeze once again turned out to be a major headache. But... also once again I pulled it off, and when I saw the actual web page in English I knew I had struck the right key with my “blind” translation…As soon as the web page is activated, I’ll put up the URL on my weblog.
