We live in a world of global connections and relations. With the multi-cultural composition of the USA, there is no question that there is a great need for translators & interpreters. This doesn’t only happen in the big cities such as New York, Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco in California or even Las Vegas, especially when we think in terms of worldly conferences and conventions. There are many people from different countries living alongside and trying to work together in this country.

BdS is a bridge to the language gap that exists between these different groups. We assist as a solution when language is an obstacle in a way that people can appreciate one another in a productive manner.

LITERARY TRANSLATIONS:

All reading is in a sense a kind of translation, a search for meanings in a text written by someone else. We realize the impossibility of ever pinning down 'an original literal meaning' whilst always enjoying our own interpretations. Literary Translation is therefore an art that seeks to increase awareness of the art of translation and how it enhances a writer's development and imagination.

In most societies literary translation seems to have become so important that the very concept of translation tends to be restricted to literary translation in comparison with other types of translation and other texts. Furthermore, translating culture-specific items in literary translations seems to be one of the most challenging tasks to be performed by a translator.

A published translation is the fruit of a substantial creative effort by the translator, who is the key in the subject activity and social practice of translation. In fact, it is the literary translator who reaches the thousands of decisions of social and cultural factors and gives the manuscript its final existence as a masterpiece.

Different strategies might be necessary to approach a poem or a fiction, for example. BdS creates a new pattern in a different language based on personal reading, research and activity. Since we translate those works which are selected for translations, the result becomes a keen point of cultural convergence.

We offer suggest work regularly writing readers reports for their publishers on books sent by foreign authors and their agents. It implies that the work is representative of a particular language and feeling of the source culture and also that the publishers believe there is a market for that literary translation. The final goal of a literary translation is noften the publication and it always regards relationships, habits and traditions of the target language & culture.

MISSION STATEMENT: "I interact without the language barrier and foreigners get the best out of their visit with tact, elegance and friendliness".
