English to German: Sample from Alice in Wonderland, Chapter 4 General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Poetry & Literature
Source text - English "It was much pleasanter at home," thought poor Alice, "when one wasn't always growing larger and smaller, and being ordered about by mice and rabbits. I almost wish I hadn't gone down that rabbit hole - and yet - and yet - it's rather curious, you know, this sort of life. I do wonder what can have happened to me! When I used to read fairy tales, I fancied that kind of thing never happened, and now here I am in the middle of one! There ought to be a book written about me, that there ought!"
Translation - German "Es war so viel angenehmer zu Hause", dachte die arme Alice, "denn dort wuchs und schrumpfte ich nicht ständig und wurde nicht von Mäusen und Kaninchen herumkommandiert. Ich wünsche mir fast, ich wäre nie in diesen Kaninchenbau geklettert - und doch- und doch ist das Leben hier unten sehr interessant, wissen Sie. Ich frage mich, was mir wohl passiert ist. Als ich früher Märchen las, konnte ich mir nicht vorstellen, dass solche Dinge überhaupt passieren, und jetzt bin ich mittendrin! Jemand sollte ein Buch über mich schreiben, ja, unbedingt!"

Experience
Years of experience: 13. Registered at ProZ.com: Oct 2012.
My name is Martina and since I am just about to finish my studies, I thought it was necessary to find work in my favorite field: translation.
At university, I studied English and Spanish linguistics and literature.
Thus, my language combinations are the following:
English to German
and
Spanish to German
From July to September I worked in a translation agency in Vancouver where I learnt a lot about the translation industry. Moreover, I could further improve my knowledge of the English language.
I am a highly motivated person who works very accurately.
If you have any questions, please contact me.
Thank you!
