English to Spanish: Radio Silence by Alice Oseman General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Poetry & Literature
Source text - English Hello.
I hope somebody is listening.
I'm sending out this call via radio signal—long outdated, I know, but perhaps one of the few methods of communication the City has forgotten to monitor—in a dark and desperate cry for help.
Things in Universe City are not what they seem.
I cannot tell you who I am. Please call me...please just call me Radio. Radio Silence. I am, after all, only a voice on a radio, and there may not be anyone listening.
I wonder—if nobody is listening to my voice, am I making any sound at all?
Translation - Spanish Hola.
Espero que alguien me esté escuchando.
Estoy usando señales de radio para enviar este mensaje. Lo sé, es un método bastante anticuado, pero puede que sea uno de los pocos medios de comunicación que la Ciudad ha olvidado monitorear. En total desesperación, este es mi último intento de pedir auxilio.
Nada es lo que parece en Universe City.
No puedo decirte quién soy. Por favor, llámame…puedes llamarme Radio. Silencio De Radio. Después de todo, no soy más que una voz en la radio y puede que nadie me esté escuchando.
Y me pregunto...si nadie me escucha, ¿estoy emitiendo algún sonido?

As an avid bookworm almost since birth, I have always been fascinated by words and their hidden meanings. As I grew up and discovered the beauty of the English language, I realized that I wanted to be able to translate literary works for a living. After all, both the world of literature and the world of words are inherently and permanently intertwined.
