The Hentad ar Brezhoneg circuit in Lannion is a treasure hunt to do on your bike. It's about the Breton language and is made up of 10 signposts in Breton, French and English. Like everyone, we did our own translation into English. Overcome by doubt, we decided nevertheless to ask Michelle to proofread it before going to print. Thank goodness we did, because on top of having several small errors, we had actually mistranslated "Diwan" (the Breton schools) by the word "germ", which in English is about bacteria, virus, parasite...Google translate and the others can cost you a lot more than a professional translation!
Yoann Huiban
We work regularly with Michelle for the translation of our documents to English, her native language. Perfectly bilingual, she can adapt to a large range of subjects. The translations that she delivers are always very meticulous and of high quality. In addition, she's a very nice translator and all interactions with her are smooth and uncomplicated. We highly recommend Michelle, with whom it's a pleasure to work.
