Mike Hodshon moved to Germany from England nearly twenty years ago. He set up Marketing Language as a translation agency to support the international marketing services currently on offer to a wide range of customers.
Half of a translator's job is understanding the source text. We take pains to understand what the client wishes to express, even where messages are hidden between the lines.
The other half of the job is to express that message in a way that the intended reader will enjoy reading and will understand in full. This is always our goal: interesting, comprehensible text.
