Since I first began translating legal documents, I’ve always wanted a space to chronicle the small stories, challenges, and solutions that come with this work. But, like many, I got caught up in the hustle and bustle of daily life, leaving little room to reflect and write.
Now, with a brief respite during the Lunar New Year, I finally found the time to set up my blog. I’ve even secured a personal domain name, marking this as a special milestone in my career. This space will be a repository for the lessons I’ve learned over the years—where the complexities of legal language meet the precision of translation.
As they say in Chinese, “千里之行，始于足下” (A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step). Today, I take that first step, and I hope this blog will be a place of growth and connection for both myself and those who share the same passion for the art of legal translation. Let’s embark on this journey together, one post at a time.
t’s great that you found the time to start this blog. I’ve been working in legal translation for a few years and often struggle with certain terminologies. I hope to learn some tips from your posts!
Thank you, Ling! Legal terminology can indeed be challenging, and I’ll definitely be sharing some of the strategies that have helped me over the years.
Starting a blog during the Lunar New Year is such a good idea. It’s a time for new beginnings. Best of luck with your writing!
I’ve always wanted to do something similar but never found the time. Kudos to you for making it happen! What topics will you be covering first?
I’m looking forward to your posts. As someone new to legal translation, it’s great to have a resource like this from a seasoned professional.
Starting your own blog is a great way to contribute to the translation community. I’m eager to follow your journey and maybe start my own blog someday.
