Claudia Seebothe: Language expert and globetrotter
To me, crafting a text is like embarking on a journey. Whether I’m translating, or writing a text from scratch, research is a must. It’s all about asking why topics are interesting. Or what words and expressions are typically used in German.
Once this information’s in my backpack, the actual journey can start. I develop and discard ideas, pick sentences apart and reshuffle them, conduct research, liaise with customers and ensure the direction of travel is the right one.
When the finished result’s fit for purpose and appeals to the customer, it’s like reaching the summit of a mountain.
