Wanted: Interpreters of “Brooklyn English”
Translation company is interested in hearing from speakers of “Brooklyn English”, with good knowledge of accent, slang, nuances, etc, to meet the interpreting needs of foreign and out-of-town clients who find it an unexpected challenge.
Potential work might include consecutive interpreting, phone interpreting, etc.
