Translating

The difference between the right word and the almost right word is really a large matter β€” it’s the difference between lightning and a lightning bug.
— Mark Twain

If you want to reach an international audience, you need to speak their language. Most Dutch people speak some English, but writing it is much more difficult: written language is less forgiving and more formal than speech, and errors are more obvious.

Instead of struggling to write fluent English, why not write your text in Dutch and have me translate it for you? I have more than 20 years' experience writing and editing English, so I can ensure that your text is correct and clear to a non-Dutch audience.

Some of my translation jobs include:

  • Academic articles for publication in international journals

  • Employee newsletters and blog posts for businesses in sectors including IT, telecom, and oil & gas

  • Annual reports, academic regulations, and internet texts for Dutch universities

  • LinkedIn profiles, CVs, and personal websites
