Reading recommendation for the following paragraph – please read the sentences of your language to mininise the confusion.

Let me invite you to the intriguing world my linguistic profession. ดิฉันขออนุญาตขอเชิญคุณเข้าสู่โลกที่น่าพิศวงของผู้มีอาชีพด้านภาษา Shall we begin with the word เราเริ่มต้นด้วย คำว่า "I" which either means ซึ่งแปลว่า ฉัน or หรือ ผม, ดิฉัน, ข้าพเจ้า, ข้า, ตัว, กู, ตัวเอง, เรา, กระหม่อม, อาตมา, หมอ, พยาบาล, ครู, ลูก, แม่, พ่อ, ลุง, ป้า, น้า, อา, หลาน , and many more words และ คำอื่น ๆ อีกมากมาย in Thai ในภาษาไทย.

Now, please allow me to reorganise the message into two distinctive language categories, similarly to how the message is transferred through the professional translators and interpreters.

These two words are the classic lexical selection that professionals in my field and my language pair have to face constantly during the process of the message rendition. In reality, the messages exchanged between the two languages does not comprise just one or two words. This situation rarely happens in the real world of communication. Message transfer consists of complex texts with many words rendered in any given language with its distinctive grammatical system. To make it more interesting, message transference has to also match the source text and the target text lexical connotation as well.

Let's slightly  unpack the expectation of a professional translator and Interpreter (T&I). The jobs of the T&I practitioners have to also be completed by adhering to the correct register. All aspects of linguistic features have to be captured and rendered. We have to jump between the two worlds of languages constantly and face linguistic challenges endlessly throughout the assignment. Linguistic knowledge is, undeniably, a helpful basis for the field. However, in reality, what is required to excel in the profession, is more complex than just a prima facie simple task one may initially have in their mind when thinking about language transference. Interestingly, linguistic proficiency and linguistic rendition of skills may overlap, however, they are not the same skills. Rendition skills that are required in rendering the message involve the ability to capture, process and deliver all aspects of the message at an equivalent level with minimum insertion or distortion, in order to retain the pragmatic force in the original message.

To master the T&I professional skills, we have to attain, requires a combination of art, skills, knowledge, stamina, and expertise all together. Hence, the perception that simply speaking a language qualifies one as a professional translator or interpreter is a misconception. In reality, it takes years of practice and dedication to develop the skills necessary for success in T&I professionals. Achieving full and accurate message transfer is both an art and a discipline that professionals must constantly hone. Mastering the art of translation and interpreting requires not only fluency but also a combination of specialised skills, knowledge, stamina, and expertise all together.
