Welcome to Black and White Translations!
We are a Linguist / Engineer Duo who have been providing Spanish-English, English-Spanish and French-English language services since mid-2004. Let us briefly introduce ourselves:
Hi, I'm Clare. I'm a native British English speaker who possesses a First Class BA Honours Degree in French and Spanish with Distinction in spoken French from The University of Newcastle upon Tyne in England. I have further developed my knowledge of these two languages through university study in France and Spain, academic research in France, and three and a half years’ experience as an English Language Teacher in Ecuador. I completed a Master's Degree in Latin American Studies with specialization in Sociology and Anthropology at The University of Liverpool in England in 2004. During this multidisciplinary course I spent five months conducting fieldwork in Ecuador for my dissertation on the local development impacts of international migration. I have also worked for several large American companies (Ford The Motor Company, Procter and Gamble and The American School in Ecuador) and have gained good knowledge of the differences between US and British English as a result.
My fields of specialization are:
- Social sciences
- Education and teacher training
- Business (esp. Human Resources)
- International development, relations and cooperation
- Culture, the arts and entertainment
- Tourism and travel
- Modern literature (esp. short stories)
- Linguistics and language acquisition
Hola! I'm Diego. I'm a native Ecuadorian mechanical engineer specializing in manufacturing. I possess five years' experience of designing and constructing thermoplastic injection moulds and tool & die. I have also conducted academic research into silica mining, treatment and production processes. I am able to use CAD systems for manufacturing and design purposes. I have developed my knowledge of the English language through residence in England, IELTS training at a British university and a lot of reading!
My fields of specialization are:
- Technical
- Engineering
- Manufacturing
- Mining & minerals
- Materials (esp. plastics)
- Product design
- AutoCAD
Why choose Black & White Translations?
We translate side-by-side out of Ecuador and place an emphasis on quality, rather than quantity. We research source terms thoroughly using a wide range of paper, CD-ROM and on-line word reference sources. In addition to carefully reviewing, spell-checking and formatting our own translations, we also check each other's work for accuracy and completeness. We strive for excellence in customer service and make ourselves as accessible as possible (telephone, e-mail, Skype, MSN). We enjoy cultivating long-term relationships with our wonderful clients from around the world.
In addition to Spanish>English, English>Spanish and French>English translation services, we also offer:
- Spanish>English consecutive interpreting
- Proofreading and editing in all three language combinations
- American English>British English adaptations
- Castilian Spanish>Latin American Spanish adaptations
- Design Services using AutoCAD
We charge per-source-word (and, in some cases, hourly) rates. Exact rates depend on each assignment’s language, terminology, size, file format, software, and turnaround time. Please contact us directly for a quote in EUR, USD or GBP. We can accept payment into our UK or Ecuadorean bank accounts or via PayPal.
