\nWelcome to September! The days are becoming cooler with Fall right around the corner. Kids are all back in school and daylight hours are becoming noticeably shorter. Labor Day has come and gone and that signals the end of Summer vacations and a return to regular work weeks. Labor Day isn’t the only important observance we make in September. We can’t deny the importance of…<\/p>\n

Be Late for Something Day<\/strong>
\nNational Butterscotch Pudding Day<\/strong>
\nAsk a Stupid Question Day<\/strong>
\nNational One-Hit Wonder Day.<\/strong><\/p>\n

One could claim that any of these days match the importance of Labor Day, including\u00a0“National Translation Day”\u00a0<\/strong>(certainly near and dear to the hearts of all of us at Auerbach International). You might ask yourself, “Why would there be a day focused on the translation profession?” As always, consider the following and see if using a professional translation firm like\u00a0Auerbach\u00a0International<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0may have provided different outcomes to these Friday Funnies!<\/p>\n

Not bad, I’m sure a good 20% of readers could make a guess at what they are requesting.<\/p>\n

\"friday<\/figure>\n

I’m not sure that there is such a thing but to each their own.<\/p>\n

\"friday<\/figure>\n

So are those Flamingo Llamas or Llama Flamingos?<\/p>\n

\"friday<\/figure>\n

The translation from Korean is “Addictive Luxury” “Drug Hot Dog” “Long sausage wrapped in pastry.
\nSprinkled with special sugar.”<\/p>\n

So is the “special sugar” the “drug”? Is there a big demand for “NARCOTIC HOTDOGs” in Korea? Maybe in North Korea?\u00a0Sure, these signs render a hearty chuckle from us but if your non-English communications are being translated by anyone other than a professional linguist you could find your Llama widgets being described as Flamingo gadgets to your global customers. That’s not something to laugh about.\u00a0Make certain that you use a translation firm with professional linguists with a Master’s degree or the equivalent, who have at least 10 years experience in the industry, who are assigned to projects based on their native language, and who have knowledge of the industry within which your communications are targeted.\u00a0Also, look for a firm that has more than three decades of service to organizations large and small and whose mission has always been 100% customer satisfaction with near 100% accuracy over our 30+ years. Allow me to suggest\u00a0Auerbach International.<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0September is a month of change and is the perfect month to upgrade your translation provider to Auerbach. You want to avoid the shock of suspect translation services from a firm who offers special sugar but delivers narcotic hot dog results!\u00a0A final thought from Mark Twain: “There is nothing so annoying as to have two people go right on talking when you’re interrupting.”\u00a0Best ~<\/p>\n
