Letter in Telegraph - Baffling Instructions!!

A letter in today's Daily Telegraph newspaper runs as follows:

SIR - I have just acquired a solar charger but the found the instructions a trifle confusing.
They said: "This machine increases intelligence battery charging newly protecting a circuit, should use the lithium battery that voluntarily go out, much better protection of red lantern has built-in, when PC or suitable orchestrate gives machine to charge."

We do not think that Mr. Lee's instructions were translated by a professional!!

Alexika speaker at ATC conference

Alexika will again be represented at the conference of the Association of Translation Companies (ATC) in London on 23rd September 2010.

In addition to looking forward to meeting old and new colleagues in the translation industry, Mark will co-present a seminar with our technology partner SDL plc. The seminar will focus on adoption of the latest version of SDL's Trados translation technology. The best use of technology is important for both our clients and indeed our professional translators, enabling both to work in as efficient a manner as possible - Alexika aims to keep abreast of latest developments and it is good to be able to discuss developments in an open forum.

The conference again takes place at the University of London's School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS) campus on Russell Square.
