Seminars:

Speaker at the
ATA Financial Translation and Interpreting Conference 29 April-1 May 2005, Jersey City, New Jersey, USA.

Presentation:
"Do you know what you are looking for and where to look?"
In the last five years, it has become more and more evident that the Internet is the biggest "live" dictionary, reference book, and library for translators. In the world of finance, terminology is likely to change and evolve more rapidly than in other industries which is why translators often find that printed dictionaries are less useful than online glossaries.This presentation illustrates precise search tecniques for financial terminology through the use of online search engines. The question is, "Do you know what you are looking for and where to look?" The goal of this presentation is to provide a structured approach to the online search and verification of financial terminology.
