- English Danish Translator
Are you looking for a professional
English Danish translator?
Do you need a fixed and reliable agreement with an English Danish translator,
or do you just have one job you need to get done?
Both options are available at Murphy Technical Text, which is owned and operated by me, Susan Murphy Lamprecht. Here you only have contact with me, and it will always be me who does the work, which is your guarantee that the work will be done consistently every time.
I have only specialised in the discipline of an English Danish translator. It is an entirely conscious decision that I do not translate from Danish into English. The specialization means that I both maintain my language skills and keep 100% up to date as the details of the language evolve because when the job concerns words, it is not enough to “just” translate. The job requires the right knowledge to select the words that match precisely with the context and culture of the sender and target group.
It is precisely because I am an experienced professional that I know where mistakes most often occur, and this is, among other things, when the translator gazes fixedly at their work — sometimes it is difficult to see the wood for the trees. Therefore, I always include an external proofreader in the price of my translations, unless you prefer to use your proofreader.
At the same time, I have specialised explicitly in technical translations. Partly, because the concrete and fixed framework fit my working method, and partly, I find it credible to only focus on one area and to be excellent at it.
Therefore, I primarily translate
- Technical documentation within industry and agriculture
- Manuals for machinery, electrical consumer products, cameras, computers, and IT accessories.
- Marketing texts about technical equipment
Texts in the pharmaceutical/medical area or subtitles for films or video are not part of my technical specialization.
My background as an English Danish translator
I was born and grew up bilingual with a British mother and a Danish father. I am also a trilingual secretary in Danish, English, and French from Copenhagen Business School (CBS) and hold a master’s degree in English and international relations from Aalborg University.
My CV includes various job titles, all of which have had the common denominator that I have regularly communicated in English. I have run my owner-managed translation company since 2016, where I primarily undertake assignments for translation agencies, IT companies or larger companies in the machinery industry. Here I have found the discipline that I plan to follow as long as I work. So, with me, you can get a fixed agreement for many years to come.
A fixed procedure and straightforward collaboration for translations
Perhaps you have a text that you would like to have translated from English into Danish. In which case, I typically work according to the following procedure:
*Although it is in everyone’s interest that the tasks are planned well in advance, we all know that a new version of the text can emerge at the last minute. That is why I have arranged my working day so that I also have the opportunity to handle small, urgent jobs when they arise. The delivery time for other jobs is usually less than a week, or what we agree.
