neutral  wrtransco: what does "direct translation" mean??? - I am defending our "profession"!

  -> "Direct translation" means I translated it directly without any reference works that could be cited. As to your gratuitous harrassment constituting a defense of your profession, I beg to differ.
neutral  Daniel Jeory: unfortunately, it IS a direct translation, rather than a functionally equivalent one!

agree  Anca Nitu: Only culturally diverse means part of many cultures not open to other cultures, I would use cosmopolitan a word that describes a persone at home in different cultures

agree  William Stein: sounds good, but maybe international means that she has lived in a lot of different countries, which is not the same as having an international outlook.
