You've come to the right place!
WordTrotter is a tailor-made solution designed to satisfy your needs for efficiency, precision and creativity. The result is a vibrant, artistic translation that naturally delivers your projects to a French audience for a more immersive experience. Beyond a classic translation, I provide an adaptation (or transcreation) of more artistic contents grounded in French cultural standards. This allows me to reproduce your original emotions and messages instead of simply translating them verbatim.
In other words, if you're looking for a high-quality translation from a native French-speaking translator who lives in France and has specialized and graduated in a variety of audiovisual and artistic fields for an optimal specialized translation, don't wait any longer; get on board with me!
There is no need to compete with CAT (Computer-Assisted Translation) and AI tools here.
As languages constantly change (over centuries, social classes, generations and geographical locations) and take on numerous meanings (signs that are linguistic, oral, visual, or gestural can all convey meaning), these tools undoubtedly lack precision (including syntax, punctuation, false friends, literal translations…), idiomaticity, contextualization, and vividness.
Although many people fear that these tools will replace us, I believe they have demonstrated the importance of human translators in producing idiomatic, vivid, and original content.
However, as a translation professional, it would be silly not to embrace these innovations, given that they can save a significant amount of time in terms of repetition and translation memory, allowing us to focus on what is most important to me: creativity!
Which is why I put these tools at my disposal rather than fearing or rejecting them, as that's what they're here for in the first place: allowing me to save time and maximize my potential and experience in areas requiring creativity or language manipulation at different levels of understanding (including all my fields of specialization, films, animated films, TV shows, board and video games, whose experience would be affected by a misunderstanding of the rules, a botch of the message, or the beauty of the original work), as well as those needing precise technical and utilitarian understanding (for example, to understand certain instructions precisely, else individuals will not be able to operate the item at issue, especially when lives or money are at stake), filling in what CAT and IA tools lack.
So, let's work hand in hand!
