Dear Bunsuke, Would you mind sharing how you pick the paragraphs to be included in your newsletter? I found they are very useful illustrations of the differences between Japanese and English. Thank you.
Hi Emma! Thank you for your question. My process is fairly simple. I just browse my shelves, pick a book, and keep reading until I find a few sentences that are not too complicated but that still tell a story. I tend to go for sentences that have a few interesting constructions and that pose a bit of a challenge to translate, exactly so that you can see the differences in both languages and what kind of choices you have to make as a translator. Hope this answers your question!
