An Interview with our Translator
  

It takes more words to convey the same message in French as it does in English and while this isn’t an issue in a document, it is a challenge when visually presenting information in English and French in an infographic or slide deck, and the ability to develop succinct social media postings in both official languages can be particularly perplexing.
Un entretien avec notre traductrice
  

Il faut plus de mots pour transmettre le même message en français qu’en anglais. Cela n'est pas un problème dans un document, il s’agit cependant d’un défi lors de la mise en page des diaporamas ou des créations des infographistes. La capacité de développer des publications succinctes sur les médias sociaux dans les deux langues officielles peut donc être particulièrement complexe.
