Howdy Nora, I would like to ask you to explain in more detail how do you create your digital flash cards. What tool do you use for creating Glossaries?
Would the flashcards be useful for translation as well as interpreting?
I have to do a translation test which is into English but it contains names of Japanese Traditions written with the English letters. How do you translate and spell those words?
For instance the Japanese New Year: I am not sure how to spell that word. What should I do? Would it be included in an English Dictionary?
