Spanish translator, editor, grammarian and presenter extraordinaire Xosé Castro will return to Austin on September 25th for another of his popular Spanish language and grammar seminars. Xosé’s last appearance in Austin brought out an SRO crowd and was a resounding success. This second AATIA-sponsored workshop promises to be every bit as edifying and entertaining.

This time, Xose will focus on English-Spanish translation conundrums. In this interactive hands-on workshop, he will guide participants in resolving problems frequently encountered by English-to-Spanish translators, especially those working in the United States, looking in particular at what rules of Spanish grammar and usage are applicable and when it is not only acceptable but desirable to break those rules in the interests of effective communication. Participants will be encouraged to submit questions and examples of translation dilemmas that they grapple with in their day-to-day work.

Although this workshop is aimed mainly at translators of English to Spanish, translators of Spanish to English will benefit from Xosé’s phenomenal knowledge of the Spanish language and his precise explanations of the finer points of Spanish grammar and usage.

Register for the workshop before September 11th to take advantage of early-bird rates!
