About Ulingo
Ulrika Borking – Translation Consultant at Ulingo Photo: Karin Norström
I believe that translation is about conveying a message in the best possible way in the required situation, taking into account the framework conditions determined by the type of text, subject area and intended target audience. The right tone, style and meaning should not get lost in translation, and the content has to be adapted so that “it doesn’t sound translated”.
"Translation is that which transforms everything so that nothing changes."
(Günter Grass)
