Internationalism prompts boom in language business Patrick Gillespie

McClatchy Washington Bureau

WASHINGTON — It’s a high-stakes, multibillion-dollar industry with tight deadlines, demanding clients and lives at risk. Any miscommunication loss or death. Some in the industry work in war zones while “The stakes can be huge,” said Lillian Clementi, 55. “There’s tons of time pressure.” The business is language. And it’s booming. The number of jobs for translators and interpreters doubled in the past 10 years while their wages steadily grew before, during and after the recession. Jobs are expected to grow 46 percent between 2012 and 2022, according to the Labor Department, making it one of the nation’s fastest growing occupations. During a period of stagnating wages across the labor market, the language-service industry with its 50,000 jobs is a bright spot in the jobs outlook. Clementi is a French translator who works in corporate communications from her home in Arlington, Va. Clementi is routinely on tight deadlines to submit translated material. One of Clementi’s former clients, a French company, routinely would send her legal documents to translate at the end of France’s workday — about mid-

day on the East Coast. Clementi would translate the material and email it to another translator in Australia to double-check it. Then the Australian translator sent the translated documents back to France before the comday in Paris. “It had literally gone around the globe,” said Clementi, who translates French into English. “This has been going on forever in this industry.” In some cases, a proper translation or interpretation is vital. If a user’s manual for medical equipment is not translated well, it could lead to confusion during an emergency. Soldiers lent interpreters to speak with community members. Any change of tone or context could put lives at risk. Translators’ and interpreters’ relative immunity to the nation’s economic downturn also highlights the growing demand for multilingual speakers in an increasingly globalized economy, experts said. “Good translators who specialize in a particular subject and become really good at it can really,” said Jiri Stejskal, spokesman for the American Translators Association. “The professional translators and interpreters . . . they are pretty happy right now because the economy is good and the jobs are there.”

The estimated value of the language-service industry worldwide, including technology language services, this year will be about $37.2 billion, according to Common Sense Adin Boston. That’s a 6.2 percent increase from 2013. Common Sense Advisory predicts the industry will be worth $47 billion by 2018. Multinational corporations, U.S. demographic changes and the Internet economy raise the need for translated and localized information. Companies increasingly want their content tailored to the tongue of the town, even between dialects of the same language. For instance, trousers in London are pants in Miami. And of course, words like pop and soda can seemingly vary by the neighborhood. “As more people have access to the worldwide economy, that’s going to drive more commerce, and that’s going to drive more language services,” said Bill Rivers, executive director of the National Council for Language and International Studies in the Washington region. The number of translator and interpreter jobs went from about 25,000 to 50,000 between 2004 and 2012, according to Occupational Employment Statistics, a Labor Department subsidiary.

‘Septic Man’ stays stuck in the Sewer Roger Moore

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Nauseating, disgusting, vile and vulgar, that much is obvious about “Septic Man” before the opening credits are done. A horror story/survival tale set in sewers awash in condoms and corpses, this sets itself up as a monster comedy in the “Toxic Avenger” mold, for those who remember their ancient film history. But the screenplay produces little humor and makes less sense the further it progresses, even as it is assaulting our senses with every manner of vomiting known to man. Collingwood is a town forced to evacuate due to its toxic soup of a water supply. Typhus, E.coli, dysentery _ too many locals are coming to a bloody end in the loo. Since nobody there knows what to do “a-BOOT” it, we can assume

Jack packs his pregnant wife (Molly Dunsworth) off and sets out, alone, through the massive plant, where he is promptly injured and trapped in a dank, underground tank. There are people who might help him, but they (Robert human. Lacking even a cell phone, Jack must methodically go through the blueprints of the place, crawl down pipes and try to find a way to freedom, or negotiate an escape with the sewer dwellers before the sewage turns him into something less than human himself.

The picturelacks a sense of urgency, and a palpablevillain. The filmmakers needed to re-watch “Toxic Avenger” before locking down the script.
