Should we or should we not use a CAT (Computer Aided Translation) software?! I've read a lot of different opinions about this issue. Some colleagues say it is a very important tool that helps a lot with our work. Others believe it is another very expensive way of exploiting us even more. Well, to be honest with you, I'm still trying to understand what these programs really do for you. I don't use one, and ...

In fact, I've been reading a lot about these type of scam in other Translator's Forums and Websites and it seems to be an increasing problem in our industry. I must confess that it makes me quite concerned because it seems to be a very serious issue in the industry at the moment. So I decided to bring it to our discussion here. I would ...

Estou a gostar imenso da história e devo dizer que tenho até feito alguns comentários bastante acesos ás personagens. É uma história apaixonante de um homem que vive dividido entre um amor do passado e o seu presente, representado por um casamento falhado e uma filha recém-nascida. Está muito interessante e cheio de referências culturais. Desde ...

Devo confessar que não estou de acordo, e penso que este acordo vem retirar a individualidade a uma língua secular e com tanta riqueza. Sei que é de opinião de alguns que isto representa a evolução da língua, contudo o que me parece é que o que está a acontecer é a aglutinação da língua com as suas derivadas. Penso que, tal como acontece com outras ...

Not only because the US needed someone different at the helm but also because of the social significance of having a non-white President. I must confess I am a natural pessimist and even though the polls suggested a Democrat win, I always had my doubts because of the "race" issue or furthermore, because of the religion issue (many people thought Obama was a muslim). It gives me hope to ...
