About me
I take up translation of texts dealing with engineering, science, legal, commercial and business texts, patents

I am a freelance German/French translator cum interpreter active from 1975/1978 respectively in the above languages. Being a graduate electrical engineer having worked for 23 years in that capacity, I specialize in translating all types of technical literature as well as interpreting for the visiting technical experts speaking only German or French. Thus I have a cumulative experience of more than 94 years and I am 66 years young.

My strength lies in the fact that no translation assignment will be passed on to others for execution. The entire work will be done by me and this ensures a uniform good quality.

In addition to the above, I translate from Italian into English since 1990 onwards.

Tamil is my mother tongue and I studied in Tamil medium till I reached the University level. That being the case, I do translations in the pair Tamil<>English as well. This activity has increased very much in the recent months, as I am now fully enabled to type in Unicode Tamil fonts.

I do original writing in Tamil and English, see my Tamil blog at

as well as my English blog at
