Announcement!
Dear my beloved readers of my blog,It has been some time since I posted my article last. Sorry…I have been extremely busy at work doing a lot of things including editing and translating of a book, which, by the way, has just been published and put on the shelf or the table at bookstores across Japan. If you live in a big city, you should be able to find the book at some major bookstore in your neighborhood. The title of the book is <a href="http://books.bunshun.jp/ud/book/num/9784160088047" title="Daigaku-Ko">Daigaku-Ko written by the head of the educational institution that runs my university and someone for whom I worked for more than ten years as his assistant at the university. The content is a series of essays written by the author that concern educational issues. Therefore, it may not interest you unless you are in the field of education, in particular, higher education. However, if you are interested in translation, it might become instrumental in developing your translation skills as the book discusses a lot of complicated thoughts and ideas that cannot be easily translated into English. Yes, it took a lot of time and energy in order to translate such essays. I am planning to take up some part of the essays and discuss how they ended up being in English comparing and contrasting the ideas expressed in both Japanese and English. Please look forward to it, guys. In the meantime, please take a look at the cover of the book below (by Amazon). You can find the book on other major bookstores on the web. Oh, don't take me wrong. I AM NOT SELLING the book as it does not give me or the auther any money at all. Just an introduction of the book as I am the translator of the book (^^)/.Okay, just an announcement today and my new article will be coming up some time soon, hopefully...I wish I had enough time and energy to write up new articles. Until then, please read my articles posted in the past, guys. There are a bunch of articles that you should find interesting and you should not be bored. Thank you so much for visiting my blog today and I wish a wonderful weekend and great days ahead of you in spite of the inevitable rain in the rainy season.Enjoy the rain, guys, while taking good care of yourself at the turn of the seasons.Thanks again for your readership!Sincerely,Naoki
