I have been working as a freelance translator since 2009. I have translated over 40 books and I gained experience with both general and specialized texts from such different fields like marketing, the food and health industry, literature, EU documents, real estate, tourism, and others.
In 2011 and 2012, I worked as an in-house translator in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, with the specialization in marketing, telephone services, and nutritional products.
“During our cooperation, Ms. Svobodová has shown creativity, diligence, and flexibility, as well as readiness to translate texts from different genres that require specific language skills, such as poetry (e.g. an excerpt from “Endymion” by John Keats). Ms. Svobodová has gained experience with both shorter, one-time projects and long projects (Secret Circle series by L. J. Smith and the Unearthly trilogy by Cynthia Hand).
Her translations are characterized by the respect for the original text and the attractive, creative translation into the target language, Czech.”
