I was recently asked by a prospective client how many words I had translated over the course of my career.

And so I did some serious math: approximately 187500 per year over the course of 20 years yields a rather impressive number (even if I say so myself) of 3 750 000!

– 4 King James’s Bibles,

– and then some…
