I have lived in Denmark since 1972, and apart from lecturing at the local University College I have been running my own company since 1983. The company was originally called 'Scantext', later changed to 'Eurotext'.
Many thousands of pages have passed through a variety of word processors installed on lots of different computers, from an Amstrad 64 in the 1980s to my present IBM.
I have written many original texts, including a whole series of textbooks for the teaching of English in Danish Schools, but mostly I have worked as a translator and speaker.
Since the early 1980s I have translated thousands of shorter texts and several books, mostly from Danish to English, but also from French and German to English. The books can be seen on the left - further details about these and a list of frequent customers can be found below.
My translations fall into the following broad categories:
-
Historical, cultural, artistic and archeological texts, typically for museums and websites
-
Descriptive and promotional texts for companies, educational institutions and tourist agencies, including websites
-
Academic texts: articles, reports, thesis resumés
-
Official and legal texts: contracts, legislation, Executive Orders, curricula
-
A small number of technical texts (engineering and the oil industry)
-
Texts to be used for the sound tracks of films or CDs
-
Texts for the teaching of English, using a variety of styles
-
Speeches and poetry
