Source text - Spanish Sabemos que cuando el niño nace su cerebro, salvo una serie de reflejos que le permiten su supervivencia (reflejos incondicionados), está totalmente limpio de conductas genéticas y constitucionalmente heredadas, y lo que posee es una infinita posibilidad y capacidad de asimilar toda la experiencia social acumulada por la humanidad durante cientos de generaciones, y que le es trasmitida por el adulto que lo cuida y atiende. A esta capacidad de asimilar la estimulación del mundo que le rodea es lo que se denomina la plasticidad del cerebro humano. El niño, cuando nace, no sabe “volar como los pájaros ni nadar en las profundidades como los peces”. Hay que enseñarle. Sin duda lo mismo ocurre con el noble arte de vivir como hermanos. HAY QUE ENSEÑARLE.
Translation - English We are aware that when a child is born his/her brain, except for a series of reflexes that allows him to survive (unconditional reflexes), is totally free of genetic and constitutionally inherited conducts, and what he/she owns is an infinite possibility and capability to take in all the social experience accumulated by mankind during the hundreds of generations, and that is transmitted by the adult who takes care of him and sees to him. This capability to take in the world stimulation that surrounds him is what is called the human brain plasticity. The child, when born, does not know how to “fly like birds nor fly in the depths like fish”. It has to be taught. No doubt the same occurs with the noble art of living like brothers. IT HAS TO BE TAUGHT.

Source text - Spanish CIRUGÍA FACIAL: LIFTING
Con el paso del tiempo, la piel pierde la tersura de la juventud y comienzan a aparecer arrugas, especialmente alrededor de los ojos, boca y cuello.
¿Por qué envejecemos? Primeros síntomas
Debido a la acción del tiempo y a la ley de la gravedad hay una gradual perdida del tono muscular, lo que se traduce en flacidez. Al igual hay una perdida de resistencia y elasticidad de la piel, por disminución del tejido graso y del colágeno. La piel se adelgaza y se seca, pierde luminosidad y aparecen manchas. Los vasos sanguíneos se debilitan y se rompen con mayor facilidad, provocando la aparición de marcas rojas. Los labios pierden color y se hacen más delgados. Hay un exceso de piel en los parpados y estos pueden caer sobre el ojo. La mandíbula pierde material óseo.
Translation - English FACIAL SURGERY: FACELIFT
With the passage of time, the skin loses the smoothness of youth and wrinkles begin to appear, especially around the eyes, mouth and neck.
Why do we grow old? First symptoms
Due to the action of time and the law of gravity there is a gradual loss of muscle tone which results in flaccidity. Maybe there is a loss of resistance and elasticity in the skin, as the fatty tissue and the collagen decrease. The skin is thinner and gets dry, it loses brightness and stains. The blood vessels become weak and get ruptured with greater ease, causing the emergence of red marks. The lips lose colour and become thinner. There is an excess of skin in the eyelids and these could fall onto the eye. The jaw loses bone tissue.

Portuguese to English: XVII Congresso Brasileiro de Cirurgia Dermatológica General field: Medical Detailed field: Medical: Health Care
Source text - Portuguese Prezados associados,
Fomos hoje notificados do registro de três casos confirmados de Malária, em São Paulo, em dermatologistas que participaram do XVII Congresso Brasileiro de Cirurgia Dermatológica.
Dada a raridade deste diagnóstico em nosso meio (exceto Amazônia), sentimo-nos na obrigação de alertar àqueles que participaram do evento.
Lembrando que:
1. Geralmente, após a picada do mosquito transmissor, o P. falciparum permanece incubado no corpo do indivíduo infectado por 12 dias. A seguir, surge um quadro clínico variável, que inclui calafrios, febre alta (no início contínua e depois com freqüência de três em três dias), dores de cabeça e musculares, taquicardia, aumento do baço e, por vezes, delírios.
2. No caso do P. vivax, a incubação dura de 10 a 20 dias, mas não costuma ser tão agressivo. De início, os sintomas incluem mal-estar, dores de cabeça e febre ligeira que com o tempo podem evoluir para febre entre 39 e 40oC, que se repete de dois em dois dias com presença de suor intenso e dores musculares.
3. O outro causador da malária chama-se P. malariae e possui quadro clínico bem semelhante ao da malária causada pelo P. vivax, apenas apresentando febre sempre baixa e com surgimento de três em três dias.
Translation - English Dear associates,
We were notified today of the register of three confirmed cases of malaria, in São Paulo, in dermatologists who had participated of XVII the Brazilian Congress of Dermatological Surgery.
Given the rarity of this diagnosis in our environment (except Amazonia), we feel in the obligation to alert those who had participated in the event.
Reminding that:
1. Generally, after the bite of the transmitting mosquito, the P. falciparum remains incubated in the body of the infected individual for 12 days. After that, a changeable clinical picture appears, which includes shivers, high fever (in the beginning continuous and later with a three-in-three-day frequency), muscular pain and migraines, tachycardia, increase of spleen and, sometimes, deliriums.
2. In the case of the P. vivax, the incubation lasts from 10 to 20 days, but it is not usually so aggressive. At the beginning, the symptoms include discomfort, migraines and light fever that with time can develop in a fever from 39 to 40ºC, which is repeated again every two days with the presence of intense sweat and muscular pains.
3. The other malaria causer is called P. malariae and has a very similar clinical picture to the one of the malaria caused by the P. vivax, presenting always low fever and with a three-in-three-day emergence.

Bio
I am a university teacher based in Madrid (Spain). I translate from Spanish or Portuguese into English (Uk/US) and am specialized in several fields such as Marketing, Industry, Education, Business, Software among others. I offer services as a translator, interpreter or idiom teacher (either English teaching or Portuguese teaching).
I have over 25 years working as a freelance translator. My last project on which I have worked recently was the translation of 1000 pages (about 350,000 words) for an educational website regarding how children grow up in the classroom daily activities. You can visit the site on www.waece.org. In addition, I worked as a university teacher at Antonio de Nebrija University in Madrid. There I taught the fields of PUBLICITY, LAW and ADVANCED subjects. I also have an HBO Certificate regarding a subtitling course. My last voice-recording project was done for Multimedia Resources. It consisted of dubbing a Spanish psychology documentary into Brazilian Portuguese.
The last course I attended was last year at Nebrija University about e-learning. Moreover, I have got a certificate in The use of the computer in the English teaching approach obtained at PUC University, São Paulo-Brazil. Press releases are frequently translated in our team.
My areas of specialization have led me to specialize in all the categories above mentioned, being humble enough to say that “we never stop learning”.
I can certify the quality of my translations as they are proof-read by other members of my team, in the same way I proof-read theirs.
As far as background experience is concerned, I have been working as a freelance translator since the beginning of the 80s. Over 25 years improving the skill of translating and the cultural adaptation much needed in each of the languages above mentioned.
Further details are contained in my CV on this site. I would also be happy to perform a test (of up to 300 words).
Feel free to contact me if you require any additional information.
