Why I Like the English Language - I really like the English language. I've been speaking it all my life, but it's not until I became an English teacher, teaching English as a foreign language, that I really started to understand how it functions and to appreciate both its richness and its versatility. I believe that, at an elementary level, English is easier to learn than some other languages. A beginner can form good basic sentences without knowing a lot of complex grammatical forms. English verbs don't have many different endings to memorize before one can express the simplest of thoughts. Increasing Sales with Website Localization - Back in the 1960's and 70's, small businesses were not very preoccupied with growth. But, that mindset is a thing of the past. Many small businesses in the United States and in other countries, were actually family businesses. Unfortunately, consumers were persuaded to embrace the idea of 'super' markets that advertised convenience, offering a variety of products. The days were gone that the shopper had to make separate trips to the bakery, butcher's shop, fish monger, and drug store. Nevertheless, a high price was paid for such convenience--rushed and low quality service, rush hour, higher prices, and sadly, the loss of a good number of family businesses. Learning Spanish in Mexico - I had originally figured the act of immersing myself in Mexico would teach me Spanish through the process of osmosis; an involuntary movement of information from people who know something in the direction of those who don’t. I figured the step would be relatively easy considering I’d be surrounded by Mexicans and the Latin way of life, which I envisioned symbolized by a nice array of chilies and sombreros; the type you might see in the lobby of a Mexican restaurant. But upon arriving in Tulum and checking in a Tulum hotel, Mexico and being rendered speechless for approximately six weeks, my fantasies were proven just that, unrealistic.

Can Learning Languages Help You Better Understand Science and Technology? - "I was 24 years old when I first began thinking and speaking in a foreign language. It was like being released from prison. I saw my cell door swinging open and my mind flying free. That was over 40 years ago, but the picture is as fresh now as if it had just happened." I am a linguistic iconoclast. Business Translation Services - Tips for Working with an Interpreter - Interpreters are becoming more and more popular and in great demand. With people from all over the world taking part in business events such as conferences, business meetings and marketing campaigns, the language barrier can be a tough hurdle to get over. The interpreter is an important piece to the puzzle when it comes to this type of communication, and knowing how to hire one is a must for international businesses.

Divergent Habits - English and French have a lot in common, which should make French English translation that much simpler. Both are subject-prominent languages with relatively fixed SVO (subject-verb-object) word order. And yet literary habits, which also play a significant role in translating between the two, are, in some areas, vastly different. Both English and French are Indo-European languages: English from the Germanic branch, French from the Italic. How to Effectively Evaluate Business Translation Needs - Business translation is the art of expressing the sense of words and/or text in a different language or form for communication in the business world. It's a basic concept that isn't always easy to implement. One might think that the study of business translation needs is best left up to the translators. Debunking the 7 per cent Rule, Public Speaking's Most Pernicious Myth - Have you ever heard the adage that communication is only 7% verbal and 93% non-verbal, i.e. body language and vocal variety? You probably have, and if you have any sense at all, you have ignored it. There are certain "truths" that are prima face false. And this is one of them. Asserting that what you say is the least important part of a speech insults not only the intelligence of your audience, but your own intelligence as well. The whole objective of most speeches is to convey information, or to promote or defend a point of view. Certainly, proper vocal variety and body language can aid the process. The Power of Body Language - Using Body Language to Succeed in Life - You’ll definitely notice a whole new reaction from people if you unleash the power of body language. Everyone communicates nonverbally even without having to think about it. If you want to have a powerful edge in life, you need to convey the proper body language signs, with or without having to say anything else. Here’s how to use the power of body language. The Approach First and foremost, you need to establish territory to utilize the power of body language. The Most Appropriate Dating Language To Reaspond To - I am full of imagination my friends tell me so but imagine the kind of dating language animals use to communicate. What if us human beings had no language? What is this dating language used by all this living things? In animals, the most used word is courting. Some deep thinking for you here. What is the difference between dating and courting? Translation Services and Translator Vocations - The translation service industry has reached a considerable height in the past few years. Opportunities are coming up everyday as this industry is really on the cutting edge and growing rapidly because the companies involved have energy and work ethic to back it up as well. The Necessity of Website Localization - Of all Internet users approximately 65% speak a language other than English which goes to say that an English language site is probably losing thousands of visitors per day. Depending on the website's focus, this may or may not be important. However, If the site is commercial, it's probably quite important and necessary. This hypothesis actually applies to any website in only one language, targeted to a single culture. Websites in English are frequently chosen as examples to show the importance of website localization because it's a forceful reminder that not even a language as influential as English can elude taking second place sometimes on the Internet. What course of action can a business take? Translation Services: Traveling and Translating - To travel: to go from one place to another; to translate: to turn from one language into another. Traveling and language have, according to me, always walked arm in arm. There is no real traveling without communicating in another language. No real need to learn another language if not for traveling. English Learning Resources: Variety and Motivation - It is worth noting that new learners of a language really do need to build a solid foundation of knowledge before attempting anything else, and it is most useful for them to use material intended for that purpose such as structured textbooks and some websites for beginners. Both of these types offer constructive examples with relative variety. The good news is that for English learners with at least a basic level of ability, there is an abundance of material available as learning resources. In order to create some order of what exactly is available, the following three categories have been constructed; 'Authentic material' is material which has not been created for the classroom. It can be thought of as original and unedited, and covers areas like newspapers and magazines, business reports, leaflets and brochures, novels, and more. Is a Worldwide Common Language just over the Horizon? - I am an American living in Belgium since 1974. Ever since arriving here, I have been hearing the mantra "To be a good European, you should learn several languages". Almost from the very beginning, I suggested going the other way: "To be a good European, everyone should learn a single common language". This idea was not well received. Some people fiercely argued: "No one is going to give up their native language; our language is too much a part of our culture." And almost everyone said: "Well, of course you mean English." They were wrong on both counts. First, no one would be required to give up their native language, but in addition they would be required to learn the common language. Second, I did not necessarily mean English. Advertising and Translation Services Errors - Translation services for advertisements play a key role in new product launches. Having high quality multi-lingual advertising copy is therefore very important to marketing success...

Translation Services and Technology - "A renewed international effort is gearing up to design computers and software that smash language barriers and create a borderless global marketplace." - Steve Silberman The rate at which technology is growing in virtually every sphere of human activity today is mind boggling to say the least. During a video conference, you can see people located at the other end of the globe on screen, and it will appear just as if they are located right across the table from you in the very same room!

Machine translation services using appropriate software is aimed at just such an objective. How To Study The Portuguese Language - There are many people, nowadays, learning Portuguese, beside English, Chinesses...This language is a Romance language that grew out of "Vulgar Latin". It initially developed in the late first millennium amongst the Romanised Celts in modern-day Galicia (Spain) and northern Portugal. Its influence spread southwards along the Atlantic fringe during the 11th-13th centuries following the "reconquest" of the Iberian peninsula from the Arab inhabitants. As with Spanish, the language was influenced by Arabic during this period. In 1290 it was renamed Portuguese and recognised as the official language of the relevantly recent Kingdom of Portugal (only established in 1143).
