Languages and specialisms
Languages
German and Dutch: My native tongue is German. But having spent most of my life in the Netherlands, I translate with equal ease in both directions.
Spanish: I also translate from these languages into Spanish and vice versa. I have spent years in Latin America and I passed the Dutch state examination as interpreter and translator of the Spanish language.
English and French: Furthermore, I translate from English and from French into the above three languages, especially medical texts. In fact, most of my medical translations are from English.
