Translating Lovin’ Spoonfuls Recipes
Translating Lovin’ Spoonfuls Recipes
A non-profit based in Boston, Lovin’ Spoonfuls, delivers healthy food that would otherwise be discarded where it is most needed. Recently, the company requested that we translate recipe cards into Spanish, Haitian Creole, Russian, and Portuguese. These cards were then distributed to pantry visitors to aid them in preparing donated foods.
The client asked that we keep American units of measure since the donated products came from American supermarkets and people cooking the food would be setting their ovens to degrees Fahrenheit. On the other hand, these individuals may also be accustomed to cutting their vegetables in centimeters rather than inches. Our role was to tailor the translations to our target audience to make sense for non-native English speakers using these recipes in the United States.

LC Provides Professional Italian Interpreting for Enel Green Power
LC at Enel Green Power Workshop in Boston
Enel Green Power, an international company focused on developing and managing energy generation from renewable sources, held a workshop on Hydro Operational Efficiency in Boston last week. Representatives from multiple countries attended the workshop, including native Italian speakers for whom we interpreted during presentations, discussions and breakout sessions throughout the four-day event.
While the company operates all around the world, such conferences provide a forum to evaluate and address issues at specific sites and discuss plans of action. Discussions can only be effective if all participants are able to fully understand each other. This is where our role as professional quality Italian interpreters comes into play, particularly important when the material is highly technical and specific to a field such as green energy. In order to overcome any communication barriers, we employed two of our best linguists with experience in simultaneous interpreting services and scientific conferences.

LC Accommodates German Interpreting Services for “Fall of the Berlin Wall”
German Interpreting Services for the 25th Anniversary of the Berlin Wall Collapse
Language Connections accommodated German interpreting services for the event at the Minda de Gunzburg Center for European Studies at Harvard University this past week, commemorating the 25th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall.
East German civil rights activists Siegbert Schefke and Uwe Schwabe gave first-hand accounts of the Leipzig Monday demonstrations that sparked off the peaceful revolution of 1989 and the fall of the Berlin Wall. The discussion was chaired by prize-winning historian Mary Elise.
Sarotte, author of the recently published book “The Collapse: The Accidental Opening of the Berlin Wall.”
The year 2014 is a year of remembrance, marking the 25th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall on 9 November 1989. It was a monumental day in history that led to Germany’s reunification. This year is filled with events and ceremonies commemorating the fall of the wall, as well as reflections on a formerly divided Germany. One of the main highlights will be happening on the weekend around 9th November: along the former course of the Berlin Wall, a new temporary Berlin Wall will be built with thousands of illuminated balloons.

Translating for Massachusetts Immigrants
Translating for Massachusetts Immigrants
Language Connections is an experienced provider of immigration translation services. We have been working with the Massachusetts Office for Refugees and Immigrants (ORI), providing the newcomers with a comfortable transition into their new lives in the United States. ORI’s goal is to promote the full participation of refugees and immigrants as self-sufficient individuals and families in the economic, social, and civic life of Massachusetts.
Our role at Language Connections has been to help facilitate this process by providing translations of various ORI documents in the required native languages. To date, we have translated documents into several different languages, including Arabic, French, Nepali, Somali, Burmese, Swahili, Tigrinya, and Haitian Creole. Some of these less common languages, such as Tigrinya, have posed more challenges because of the fact that there are less expert translators in these languages. Despite the scarcity of qualified translation experts we were able to overcome any such difficulties and provide quality translation in all of the above languages.

LC at UNITE HERE Convention
UNITE HERE Constitutional Convention 2014
Language Connections worked with a convention services company, the Kelley Companies, to coordinate a big event which took place at Hynes Convention Center in Boston this past June. The convention was hosted by UNITE HERE which is a labor union for workers in the United States and Canada.
The union’s members work predominantly in the hotel, food service, laundry, warehouse, and casino gaming industries. The UNITE HERE Constitutional Convention in Boston required our team of skilled providers of Spanish and Cantonese simultaneous interpreting services to bridge the language barriers for members of the union attending the convention who are not comfortable or proficient in English.

JBS International Help Child Welfare Service
JBS International Calls on LC for Help With Child Welfare Services
Language Connections recently aided JBS International – a women-owned firm focusing on management and IT services, including a specialization in training workshops – by providing Spanish-language interpreters for a training workshop open to social workers in the Northeast and Puerto Rico.JBS International is a company that promotes preventive health care and well being for children as well as other public services. LC’s interpreters allowed for JBS to reach out to non-Native English speakers, a population to whom this Federal briefing for JBS would have been otherwise impossible. Child Welfare Services, at their very core, seek to aid any and all children that they can, and LC, through JBS International, supported this portion of their mission by making this Boston, MA briefing accessible to the Spanish-speaking population. Puerto Rican attendees were especially grateful for our interpreting services. Language Connections provides both major types of interpreting: simultaneous and consecutive. In this instance, JBS International needed simultaneous interpreting to ensure that workshops flowed freely. Simultaneous interpreting allows for such continuity because the interpreter works at the same time as the speaker is talking. Such interpreting is often seen in situations such as conferences, television interviews, and other situations with real-time demands. Language Connections is also a localization and translation services company.LC does work for other organizations interested in social work (such as the Worcester Department of Transitional Assistance, as seen at http://languageconnections.com/wp3/LC_Helps_JBS_Help_Child_Welfare_Services, and is glad to lend a hand to a well-known, progressive entity such as JBS International. Language is fundamentally a communication tool, and here at Language Connections, it does not matter in which tongue you communicate. Wherever you go, we speak the language, so we can give you a voice.

Massachusetts Needs: Khmer, Spanish and Vietnamese Interpreters
Worcester Needs Khmer, Vietnamese, Spanish Interpreters, LC Provides
Language Connections’ interpreters have begun facilitating a series of “client recognition meetings” for the Massachusetts Department of Transitional Assistance (MDTA). Vietnamese interpreters – as well as Spanish ones – served as intermediaries between members of Worcester’s immigrant community and its Department of Transitional Assistance. Simultaneous interpreting (in which speaker and translator communicate in lockstep, though in different languages) is essential for these meetings, as it saves time and allows for speakers to communicate their ideas more organically. The authenticity afforded by LC’s simultaneous interpreting allows, among others, native Khmer, Vietnamese and Spanish speakers to communicate their struggles and successes in a new community in a free-and-easy fashion, as well as ask questions through our team of Spanish, Khmer and Vietnamese interpreters. As well as in Worcester, LC has provided the state of Massachusetts simultaneous interpreting services in Lawrence and Pittsfield.
Here at LC, no matter how foreign the language, we speak it; even though Southeast Asia is half a world away , Vietnamese interpreters, Khmer specialists, and others are at your fingertips.
