    S2 E5 | Csaba BƔn: A Technical Translator's Journey to Transcreation

    ā€œI receive 5 to 10 transcreation jobs per month. They are small, but they are quite wide-ranged in terms of brands and the type of texts that need to be transcreated. Sometimes itā€™s two-word taglines with 20 pages I have to read before I provide at least three different versions into Hungarian plus the back-translations.ā€ ā€”Csaba BĆ”n | BP Translation Conferences ā€¢ English-Hungarian Technical Translator & Transcreator Csaba BĆ”n (Budapest, Hungary) is one of those translators with a thirst for innovation. He first started out as a Business and Finance English-Hungarian translator, then he shifted to technical manual translation services.

Moreover, since 2014, heā€™s been the brains behind one of the most renowned events in the localization industry: BP Conference. So yes, some translators prefer to work on transcreation for the sake of variety. And Csaba is one of them. In this episode with Csaba BĆ”n as my guest, we discuss: The importance of spotting the source text rhetorical devices in order to assess whether transcreation will be needed (even in technical and financial contexts) The transcreation brief: how it differs from a typical translation project assignment The differences between transcreation and localization services in financial and technical settings What a typical tagline transcreation project workflow looks like How you can start offering transcreation services to your existing agency clients The ā€œmaking ofā€ BP Conference and whatā€™s in it for translators How you can enroll in the upcoming BP Conferences in May 2022 ////// ā—¾ļø ABOUT CSABA BƁN After spending a few years as an in-house translator, Csaba BĆ”n started being a full-fledged freelancer on the international market in 2001, and there was no turning back. Active on Proz.com in its early years, he started organizing powwows in his native Budapest, then an international conference, while expanding his client base worldwide.  Connect with Csaba: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bancsaba/ Learn more about the BP Conferences: https://bpconf.com/ ā—¾ļø ABOUT THE HOST Delfina Morganti HernĆ”ndez (Rosario, Argentina) is a seasoned US/UK English-LATAM/Argentinian Spanish copywriter, transcreator and marketing specialist.

    ā€œIf youā€™re not making a change, you are not doing marketing. Youā€™re just wasting time and money.ā€ ā€¢ ā€œMarketing is something we do FOR people.

Itā€™s a highly inspiring bookā€”itā€™s truthful and it inspires you to use marketing for good. On this episode of Founded in Transcreation, writer Nathan Bennett joins me to discuss a few topics of interest to transcreators, copywriters and marketers alike: šŸ’” What is marketing from Seth Godinā€™s perspective? šŸ’” The template the author offers readers so they can phrase their offering. šŸ’” The key concept of ā€œminimal viable audienceā€ šŸ’” Some key case studies presented by Godin in his book šŸ’” And more! NOTE: Seth Godin's words are quoted from the book This Is Marketing: You Can't Be Seen Until You Learn To See, Penguin, 2018.

    šŸ‘‹Welcome back! This is the second part of EPISODE 4 of FOUNDED IN TRANSCREATIONšŸ’«, where Greek transcreator Natali Lekka joins me in this crazy adventure to critically analyse the Greek and Spanish versions of the Oreo commercial "Wonderfilled" (You'll love it! Or... hate it, but one thing is certainā€”you won't be able to ignore it. Here's the source message for you to get an aural and visual... idea: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHjLnWDI4BI). šŸ’”Apart from deconstructing existing transcreations, we use some back-translations from Greek and Spanish LATAM into English, attempt to transcreate "Wonderfilled" into Spanish (how about "Mundo MaravillOreo", for instance?) and you'll even have the PRIVILEGE of listening to Natali and me šŸŽ¤sing to the English version! Yay!šŸ˜± āš ļøWARNING: This is as informative and insightful an episode as it isā€”or should beā€”fun. Wonder if you'd laugh at us or with us? Hm... Never mind!
