Translation is viewed as an act of converting one word of a particular language to other and this is the reason people do not find it appealing.
Today when we have the internet, companies have spread their market to a lot of places and people think in today’s world opting translation as careers is a bad choice. But people don’t understand that the knowledge is gained only if one has a good translation back ground. The understanding is perfect if you have a good translation capability.
Individuals who want to make careers in translation should in depth study about translation by other good authors and then plan accordingly.
