Translator
Hi Everyone,
When a person translates a book from one language to another, where does the translator put his/her name? Or does she? I imagine it has to go somewhere but where? Elaína

Yup, I've usually seen "Translated by" or "Traducido por" at the Copyright page... where you read the ISBN, or the Library of Congress number... and things like that.
The Asterix Comics, certainly had it there... Traducido por Víctor Mora (or Jaime Périch...)

Yes, usually it's in the paragraph with other things (original book name, edition, ISN number,...)

In press articles I'm used to see "title", "by Original Author" below, then all the text and at the end of all "traducción: Fulano de Tal"

The author right.
I have seen in the book that they put his or her names. The copyrighter in some many cases. What's the book are you reading? Sincerely yours.

Well, it's not a book I am reading. Actually I am translating a small paperback book. I'm starting small so that I can eventually graduate to bigger things.

Then that kind to translations changes the things completely.

@Elaina, hey, that's a good endeavor! (How big is the book?)
@Crotalito... mmmh... I don't understand... what are you trying to say?

The sense of the phrase has changed completely, it doesn't means the same.
Regards.

To tell you the truth, I was taken aback by the fact that the King James Version is actually the Reina Valera......AND that James is actually Santiago. Live and learn. I am learning a lot from doing this translation, and actually quite honored as I was approached by the author himself.

Well, in Spanish, historical characters with the name "James" have become "Santiago", "Jacobo", "Diego" or "Jaime", but I think the Bible has only used "Santiago".

Well, some Bibles use "Jacobo" for sure... (Las hay para todos los gustos...)

Yes the Jaboco name is very utilized in the bible.
I have read a little the bible and almost that name is named one hundred times. Regards.
