Translation tips

Today I show you two english words that are very similar in its orthography and pronunciation. “Cheese” and “chess” share vowels and consonants and maybe people who don't have english as native tongue could have problems to write them. It is important not to confuse both words in a source text or in a translation.




For example, in a recipe in English it would be strange to read *Fried chess with strawberry jam (in Spanish ajedrez frito con mermelada de fresa), and what we really want to say is Fried cheese with strawberry jam (queso frito con mermelada de fresa) ;)

Happy Wednesday.
