Even though English is not my first language, I always thought the English speaking world is not speaking correct English. When it comes to pronouncing consonants that are grouped together, the familiar way of pronouncing them is to cut the words. Is it ice tea or iced tea? It seems that nobody cares. Skim milk was originally, skimmed milk. Ice cream was iced cream and wax paper was waxed paper. Misspelled words, grammatical errors, and half – pronounced sentences are taking over the way we communicate. As it turns out I am not alone. Here is the proof!

Farsi Translation Center Receives 2022 Best of Caldwell Award
It was four pm on a Thursday when I received an email from a client. He had a large number of Persian (Farsi) court documents to translate into English. He was frustrated because the court needed the translations promptly at 9:00 am the following Monday. My team and I began working right away. Our first challenge was the subpar resolution of the documents. My associate came up with a plan and began communicating with the client directly to have the problem solved. Soon after, we started working on the translation. We completed the translations by the end of the weekend.
A few days later the client called to let us know that the judge had accepted the documents and that the case was ruled in his favor. We couldn’t be happier for him. “Thank you for your insights and for bringing such professionalism and expertise to the task. We appreciate the quick turnaround time and attention to details”, he wrote. I am honored to accept the 2022 Best Of Caldwell Award. The Caldwell Award Program identifies companies that are believed have achieved exceptional marketing success in their local community and business category. We are grateful for being noticed for the work we do in the Tri-State area. We owe this achievement to the hard work and dedication of our team of translators and our developer, Olga Trubnikova.
