François Girard

Petite réflexion du vendredi... Bonne fin de semaine tout le monde ! A little Friday food for thought... Have a great weekend everyone !

To learn a little more about the man behind the screen, and the path that led me to my dream position at Canada's NAC, have a listen at this great interview conducted by Radio-Canada. Enjoy, and have a great week!!

Nothing to add here... ;) Have a great weekend everyone!

Terrific professional accolade this morning, as I officially become a Translator at National Arts Centre / Centre national des Arts! I am, however, still available for any translation projects, just visit François Girard to tell me about yours!

I'm beginning to sense a translation trend here... Protip: putting French in front of a word doesn't actually make it French (see French fries, French kiss, etc.) ;) Have a great weekend everyone!

Sure, you could always play it safe like these guys... or you could leave it to a professional like www.fgirard.net ! ;) Have a great weekend everyone!

A little Friday funny to cap off a crazy week! ;) Have a great weekend everyone!

And they wonder why French translations are usually longer than the English original... ;) Have a great weekend everybody!

A little bilingual food for thought to start the weekend off right! ;) Have a great one everybody!

Have you ever read a menu and seen a bad translation? (or, at least, you hope it's only a bad translation! ) This article explains why (and provides some absolutely delightful examples to boot)! Having translated menus in the past, I'll admit that it is far from easy, but that doesn't make this any less funny!... Do you have any other examples?

A nice little thought to start the weekend off right! Have a great one everybody! :)

I always translate my own posts, but just for fun last week, I decided to use Facebook's translation tool... Let's say I'm not too worried for the future! ;) Have a great weekend everyone!
