Being human in the translation industry

Are you a human translator? or human at least? GREAT! I thought it was another search engine browsing through my blog...  This post is to be shared with humans and if you are a translator, that's even better because you will understand what I am talking about.  Why is it important to be a human translator?  Wow... that's one reason: million of answers coming to your head... you are creative, resourceful, you can answer one simple question within seconds, you have brains.  Another important reason is that you have feelings...(I hope you do).  And why are feelings important in translation?  Because we are communicating with people. Communication can trigger feelings. For instance, while you are reading this blog, you may feel bored, you may feel I am talking nonesense, or you may actually feel I have a point.  My intention is to entertain you and share my feelings about human translation with you. That's how communication is about feelings; translation is about communication,
