ANCE KARLSSON

SWEDISH/ENGLISH TRANSLATIONS

Associate Member of The Institute of Translation & Interpreting (ITI - UK)
I am a freelance translator offering translations to and from English and Swedish. I was born in Sweden and moved to Scotland at the age of 21. Swedish is my mother tongue, while English is the language I most commonly use. I have now been a resident in the UK for over 43 years, but have never lost touch with the Swedish language and culture.I have a very active interest in languages and their development, both through formal studies as well as travel and reading. I achieved my Open University Diploma in Spanish in 2001.

Language is something that is alive, changing and evolving constantly and is therefore a life-long learning process, not merely achieved through a degree. In the end, the quality of a translation depends not only on the academic skill, but also on the general cultural awareness and experience.

My work over the years, particularly in administration, has given me a lot of experience as well as skills. I am organised, thorough and pay great attention to detail. I am self motivated and able to manage my own time, set work schedules and meet specific deadlines.

As an associate member of Institute of Translation & Interpreting (ITI UK), I abide by the code of professional conduct as regards linguistic quality, professional and commercial behaviour, as well as confidentiality.

I hold a Professional Indemnity Insurance.
