Italian to English translations [Non-PRO]
General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters | | Italian term or phrase: l'ingegner XXX | "il direttore di produzione, l'ingegner XXX"
How do you say "l'ingegner XXX (name)" in English? Is there an abbreviation, such as "Ing." in Italian?
Thanks! |

Re asker note: that would be ridiculous in English: "Mr. Rossi, Dott. Ing." - not least because you would then have to explain what "Dott. Ing." means.

The way to translate your text is "[name and surname] XXXX, Director of Production" e.g. "Alessandro Drenaggi, Director of Production". The fact that you might hold a qualification in engineering (or anything else) is not specified. |
