About
Daniel Sax - I am a translator, editor, and translator-trainer. Born and educated in the United States, I have been based in Eastern Europe for the past 20 years (primarily Poland, but also Russia and Hungary).
The “Sax Translations” business has emerged out of my two decades of experience providing language services, and I act as lead translator/editor for all Sax Translation projects.
I mainly focus on Polish-English translation (sometimes interpreting), but have occasionally done Russian-English and Hungarian-English translation work.
I myself am also a part-time academic: I have taught numerous courses on the practice and theory of translation (at Warsaw University and SWPS). Moreover, I have published 10 research papers of my own, some in English and some in Polish, in the fields of translation studies and linguistics.
