The BKVT/CBTI would like to take this opportunity to wish all its members, as well as translators around the world, a happy Saint Jerome!
Saint Jerome is the man who translated the Bible from Hebrew into Latin around 382 AD (the so-called Vulgate). Since then, he has been considered as the patron saint of translators. Which explains why 30 September has been declared International Translation Day.
Have a wonderful day everybody!
