On Saturday, 5 June 2010, in the beautiful “Capital of the Highlands”, Inverness, ITI’s Scottish and Food & Drink Networks will be presenting a day-long workshop exploring the joys and challenges of translating and interpreting in the field of food and drink.
Throughout the morning, Karen Stokes will lead a hands-on workshop entitled “Translation à la carte and in the kitchen”, giving participants the opportunity to hone their skills in – or try their hand at – translating menus and recipes. There will be plenty of opportunity for discussion of the issues involved.
After lunch, Lulu Norman will talk about her recent co-translation of a book of Lebanese cookery, looking at what made this particular project stand out from non-culinary translation work.
To round off the day, Norma Tait and Alison Hughes present “Our experience – distilled”, where they will consider the peculiarities of interpreting and translation in the whisky industry.
The workshop is part of ScotNet’s annual summer weekend, which includes an informal meal on the Friday night, dinner and a ceilidh on the Saturday night, and a walk or similar activity on the Sunday morning. Workshop attendees are warmly invited to join in these events and make a weekend of it.
