根据这个上面的解释,TRANSLATOR 是指任何翻译的人士,可以是没有经验,水平初级的,也可以是有经验的水平高级的

对吗?

所以请教各位下面这段话对吗??

请教上海翻译家协会为啥翻译成 Shanghai translator association
这个翻译是错的
Translator 可以是普通翻译员、不一定是顶级专家
可是翻译家是顶级专家
正确翻译是 Shanghai association of translation experts
???

Explanation:
you are right, translator 应为翻译,翻译工作者,翻译人员,翻译人等等


That entity should be translated as "Shanghai association of translation experts", 因为入会有很高的标准,而translators association是任何翻译都能加入的组织。

Explanation:
说自己是 “experts” 有点自夸自大的感觉。

看看以下的链接,翻译协会都没有用 “experts” 这个字。

International Association of Conference Interpreters
International Association for Translation and Intercultural Studies
The American Association of Language Specialists

Notes to answerer
Asker: 我们只是翻译,原来如何写,我们就如何翻译 是否是自夸自大,这件事由原来写的人负责

Asker: 有些是性质描述、有些是名字,翻译家和普通翻译之间的区别就是性质描述,就像把电动车所有者协会说成是燃油车所有者协会、

Asker: 我们只是翻译,原来如何写,我们就如何翻译,至于我们生意好不好,名声好不好,何这件事没有关系

agree  Mei Xu: 其实顶不顶级,都叫做“翻译”。翻译的好,名声就会大。广告好的也不一定是顶级翻译家。但顶级翻译家不需要到处打广告,人家都会知道的。所以也不用害怕人家错理解,不因为没写“expert”人家就不知道他是顶级的。看名声就知道了
