In addition, I am a sworn English to Turkish translator authorised by the Gemlik 1st Notary Public in Turkey. Mainly, I translate from English to Turkish (my native language)

   

   Briefly stated I have been translating different kinds of texts from the 'source language' into the 'target language', making sure that the meaning is maintained:


  • scientific, technical or commercial material like reports, manuals and brochures
  • legal documents, such as contracts
  • literary work, including novels, plays and poetry
  • media work, such as film scripts and subtitles for films   
  • educational resources, including textbooks, e-books and apps
