INTERNATIONAL TRANSLATION DAY & CELEBRATING LANGUAGE PROFESSIONALS 

 

International translation day is an unofficial holiday that recognizes language professionals and the work that they do; which plays a crucial role in bringing nations together in order to start a dialogue, build relationships and embolden world peace. Celebrated on September 30, the holiday falls on the same day as the feast of St. Jerome- the Bible translator who is considered the patron saint of translators. A priest from northern Italy, St. Jerome i known for translating the bible from the Greek manuscripts of the New Testament into Latin. The feast is a Christian holiday celebrated in Italy and places around the world with a heavy Italian influence- like the North End in Boston and Little Italy in New York City. The United Nations has brought 51 nations together through the work of language professionals and considers that work an art and a trade. Join us, as we celebrate International Translation Day by raising awareness of language professionals.
