English to Spanish: For Your Safety Detailed field: Other
Source text - English "Use the right tool for the job" may be an old saying, but it's always true when it comes to your safety. Let's take a look at some of the wrong tools for the job: * A screwdriver is not a chisel * A wrench is not a hammer * Gasoline is not a cleaner * A forklift is not an elevator * Your head is not a hard hat * Safety is not someone's elses job * A torch is not a pry bar	Translation - Spanish "Use la herramienta adecuada para el trabajo en mano" será un dicho viejo, pero siempre es cierto cuando se refiere de su seguridad. Miremos algunas de las herramientas inadecuadas para el trabajo en mano: * Un destornillador no es un cincel * Una llave inglesa no es un martillo * La gasolina no es un limpiador * Un montacargas no es un elevador * Su cabeza no es un casco de seguridad * La seguridad no es el trabajo de otro * Una antorcha no es una palanca

About me

I am originally from Puerto Rico and married to an Argentinian. My present jobs consist of Interpreting/translating for a Safety Consultant Company in Texas. I am also the bilingual liaison for many of the companies that we serve. I am also the safety trainer for the companies that have a high number of hispanics.

I am also a part-time teacher with a N. Texas School District. My job is to teach adult hispanics English as a Second Language.

I am surrounded by Argentinians, Puerto Ricans and mexicans most of the time and I believe that to have a good written translation the most important issue that we need to address is your target country, to ensure that you are using their own meanings and/or slangs. We have to remember, not everything is said the same way in all hispanic countries. If a single target can not be accomplished you must translate in a spanish that will be understood by everyone.

	X Why did the menu change? The updates to the menu were made to make the site easy and more intuitive for visitors. Obviously, like any change, this may take a few days to get used to. The dropdown menus have been divided into two-dimensional panels with similar items grouped together under headings. This eliminates scrolling for those with smaller screens, and also improves readability. More information on the changes... Where is the "My ProZ.com" menu? Mouseover your name at the top of the screen. Here you will find information about your account, your email settings, and more. The "My ProZ.com" menu was moved up here to simplify the main navigation, and to keep all of this type of information together.
