How does one go about becoming a translator?
I Want To Learn arabic and eventually work abroad as a freelance translator but none of my local community colleges have Arabic Language classes. Are there colleges that teach more obscure Languages than french or spanish?
What exactly is the process like in doing this?
Any helpful advice is appreciated.
A Yahoo search turned up a variety of choices for learning Arabic. There are major universities that teach Arabic.
Before you commit to the academic study of it, try the free courses. If you have never learned a foreign language from scratch you need to be prepared to work/struggle a lot.
You also need to be aware that there is a common confusion in the usage of “translator” lately even by reporters at NPR. Most of the Arabic “Translators” they are referring to are Arabic Interpreters.
You Translate a novel (or attempt to translate poetry). You interpret when you are the interface between two speakers.
