#translators

If you already have someone who can take care of it, cool! Can't wait to read it :) If not, I'd like to help ᕙ⁠(⁠＠⁠°⁠▽⁠°⁠＠⁠)⁠ᕗ

Hello friend! I got an overwhelming number of ppl wanting to do the translations (and i am SOOO grateful!!!!),, so i made a form to help me scout the team!

You know what, this is driving me a bit crazy, this trade language which is everywhere and how LITTLE we know about this

The first picture is from Horizon so that I can show a clear image, but you can see it being used on Tuchanka, Sur'Kesh, etc and in different games as well, right? So it is everywhere from ME1 to ME3

And it bothers me a bit that some planets (ahem, Tuchanka!!!) won't show us a different language but then again, perhaps it's entirely linked to translators.

But the second image on the left: what we see on the Collector ship which I think might show either pure Collector language, or Prothean, or a hybrid version?

and the third image on the right: it's hard to tell at first, I thought it was like a mix of Collector and trade language, now I think it's just the translator of the data found in the first image as EDI is data-mining and a lot of information appears on screen:

Translated by Chi-Young Kim. 2014.

Inspired by the life of a famous Korean poet & dissident, Yun Dong-Ju.

THOUGH AURORA VENTURINI wrote more than 40 books and was awarded the two top literary prizes in her native Argentina, the first English translation of her fiction, Cousins, was published only in 2023, almost a decade after her death. We, the Casertas is her second novel to appear in English, this month via Soft Skull Press. Both were translated by Kit Maude, the Buenos Aires–based literary translator who has also translated works by Jorge Luis Borges and Julio Cortázar.

In addition to her many published novels, Venturini’s literary executor Liliana Viola estimates that she left behind more than 60 unpublished manuscripts, all written on a typewriter. Despite this volume of work, the author was not widely recognized during her lifetime. In 1948, she won the Premio Iniciación for her first book of poetry, El Solitario. Fifty years later, Cousins, published as Las Primas in Argentina in 2007, was awarded the prestigious Página/12 New Novel Prize—established to honor new writers!

In an online conversation with me, translator Maude explained his admiration of Venturini’s work and noted that “her reputation rose and fell but for most of the time was pretty much nonexistent until she won the award for Cousins, and even after that, the acclaim subsided fairly quickly.” It is only now, with a recent set of reissues and some first-time publications coming out from Spanish publisher Tusquets Editores, that her work is being more widely appreciated. “The tragedy is that she isn’t around to see it,” Maude adds.
