Linguist in the Spotlight: An Interview with Rosario Charo Welle
There is much to be learned from our colleagues, but it can be intimidating to strike up a conversation with the “pros.” For that reason, we at Savvy have done the work for you and are excited to announce our new interview series, “Linguist in the Spotlight,” where we pick the brains of experienced translators and interpreters and bring their stories right to your screen. We hope their stories and sound advice will inspire you and perhaps even encourage you to ditch the fear of introducing yourself at an upcoming event.

En Pantuflas: 6 - Español de Estados Unidos: una variante con desafíos - Rosario Charo Welle
En el episodio 6, hablamos de la traducción al español “neutro” o español de Estados Unidos. Se trata de un tema muy interesante y que presenta un gran desafío dada la diversidad que existe en la población de hispanohablantes de los Estados Unidos. Pero, ¿dónde puede un traductor encontrar recursos o información sobre el español de EE.UU.?

Exactitud y neutralidad frente a los retos de la traducción. Charo Welle.
La Lic. Charo Welle habla sobre el papel que juega el traductor para preservar o mantener la exactitud y la neutralidad frente a los retos de la traducción. Los temas que aborda están basados en una investigación exhaustiva que llevó a cabo con el fin de comprender las diversas argumentaciones de expertos que la fidelidad y la imparcialidad en la traducción respecto al mensaje fuente no es siempre posible, o que ni siquiera es posible lograr el grado de fidelidad y exactitud que por norma de la ética profesional y las prácticas comerciales se espera de los traductores. Partiendo desde la premisa que, a pesar de los retos y los errores conceptuales que pueda enfrentar, el traductor debe invertir su tiempo y esfuerzo en adquirir y desarrollar las destrezas fundamentales para discernir las expresiones equivalentes más adecuadas a fin de producir una traducción fiel e imparcial, se puede inferir que la neutralidad y la exactitud son el resultado de la habilidad y la experiencia del profesional de la traducción para compensar las pérdidas naturales que son inevitables en el intento de transmitir las ideas de un idioma a otro.
