Episode 8 - The interpreting and translation world is wide and distant - Enresto Jimenez

Hello Linguists! Today at our show we have a special guest as we had each week since the first episode. Ernesto Jimenez is an interpreter that has developed this career since 2008, and since his first job, he fell in love with the challenge and the process. He also became aware of the difference between being bilingual and being an interpreter, two years later he started working as a community interpreter where he committed more to the career by getting his state certification. Currently, he is working as a linguistic advisor with advertising agencies, production and direction agencies generally behind the scenes and many of us have seen in his role as an interpreter in Judge Judy's TV show. Ernesto describes being an interpreter as being on an adventure, every day the world is getting smaller and sometimes the only barrier that exists between people is the language. It may sound cliché as he said, but there's a whole world where we as interpreters can be part of such unlimited things. This interpretation world, this translation is much bigger, amazing, exciting than our first began at interpreting and translating.
