English to Spanish: Why does my voice sound so different when it is recorded and played back? General field: Science Detailed field: Medical (general)
Source text - English Why does my voice sound so different when it is recorded and played back?
Timothy E. Hullar, an otolaryngologist and assistant professor at the Washington University School of Medicine in Saint Louis, replies.
Sound can reach the inner ear by way of two separate paths, and those paths in turn affect what we perceive. Air-conducted sound is transmitted from the surrounding environment through the external auditory canal, eardrum and middle ear to the cochlea, the fluid-filled spiral in the inner ear. Bone-conducted sound reaches the cochlea directly through the tissues of the head.
When you speak, sound energy spreads in the air around you and reaches your cochlea through your external ear by air conduction. Sound also travels from your vocal cords and other structures directly to the cochlea, but the mechanical properties of your head enhance its deeper, lower-frequency vibrations. The voice you hear when you speak is the combination of sound carried along both paths. When you listen to a recording of yourself speaking, the bone-conducted pathway that you consider part of your “normal” voice is eliminated, and you hear only the air-conducted component in unfamiliar isolation. You can experience the reverse effect by putting in earplugs so you hear only bone-conducted vibrations.
Some people have abnormalities of the inner ear that enhance their sensitivity to this component so much that the sound of their own breathing becomes overwhelming, and they may even hear their eyeballs moving in their sockets.
Translation - Spanish ¿Por qué mi voz se escucha tan diferente en una grabación?
Timothy E. Hullar, otólogo y catedrático adjunto en la Washington University School of Medicine en St. Louis, responde:
El sonido puede llegar al interior del oído por medio de dos conductos diferentes y estos canales a su vez modifican lo que percibimos. El sonido de conducción aérea es transmitido desde el ambiente exterior a través del canal auditivo externo, el tímpano y el oído medio hasta la cóclea, la espiral con líquido dentro del oído interno. El sonido de conducción ósea se transmite por los tejidos de la cabeza directamente hasta la cóclea.
Cuando hablamos, la energía acústica se esparce en nuestro alrededor llegando a la cóclea por conducción área a través del oído externo. El sonido también viaja desde nuestras cuerdas vocales y otras estructuras directamente hasta la cóclea, donde las propiedades mecánicas de nuestras cabezas intensifican las ondas más graves de baja frecuencia. La voz que escuchamos cuando hablamos es la combinación del sonido que viaja por ambos conductos. Si escuchamos una grabación de nosotros mismos hablando, el conducto óseo que consideramos parte de nuestra voz normal es eliminado, y lo único que escuchamos es el extraño sonido del conducto aéreo aislado. Puedes experimentar el mismo efecto al revés, usando audífonos para solamente escuchar las ondas sonoras del conducto óseo.
Algunas personas tienen anormalidades en el oído interno que incrementan tanto la sensibilidad de esta área que el sonido de su propia respiración se vuelve insoportable, e incluso es posible que escuchen como sus globos oculares se mueven en sus cavidades.
English to Spanish: Tesla and the power of meme marketing: How do they have the world hanging on their every word without traditional marketing and publicity investment. General field: Marketing Detailed field: Journalism
Source text - English Tesla and the power of meme marketing: How do they have the world hanging on their every word without traditional marketing and publicity investment.
It was one of those facts from last week. Elon Musk announced himself as "Technoking", a made-up title of Tesla, the company where he is CEO and founder. But it is not the only new title on the board. His CFO turned out to be the "Master of Coin". The change in the nomenclature was a social media moment, but Tesla took it into the formal world. As the listed Company it is, they must notify of all changes to the market regulator in the U.S. and so on the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) received a notification that announced the changes.
The U.S. SEC filing reads, "Effective as of March 15, 2021, the titles of Elon Musk and Zach Kirkhorn have changed to Technoking of Tesla and Master of Coin, respectively. Elon and Zach will also maintain their respective positions as Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.
Translation - Spanish Tesla y el poder del meme-marketing: cómo logran que todo el mundo hable de ellos sin invertir en marketing y publicidad tradicionales.
Fue algo que ocurrió la semana pasada. Elon Musk anunció que se proclamaba "Technoking", un título inventado y que se podría traducir como el rey de la tecnología, de Tesla, la compañía de la que es CEO y fundador. Pero no fue el único con un nuevo título. Su CFO pasaba a ser el "master of coin", el maestro de moneda. Este cambio de nomenclatura solo ocurrió dentro de redes sociales, pero Tesla lo hizo formal en el mundo corporativo. Como compañía cotizada que es debe avisar de todos los cambios al regulador de mercado estadounidense y la Comisión de Bolsa y Valores de Estados Unidos (SEC, sigla en inglés) recibió una notificación que alertaba de los cambios. "Efectivo el 15 de marzo de 2021, los títulos de Elon Musk y Zach Kirkhorn han cambiado a Tecnorey de Tesla y Maestro de Moneda, de forma respectiva", se lee en la Comisión de Bolsa y Valores de EU. "Elon y Zach mantendrán también sus posiciones respectivas como director ejecutivo y director financiero", añade la nota.
English to Spanish: What Is Financial Technology – Fintech? | ¿Qué es la Tecnología Financiera? General field: Bus/Financial Detailed field: IT (Information Technology)
Source text - English What Is Financial Technology – Fintech?
Financial technology (Fintech) is used to describe new tech that seeks to improve and automate the delivery and use of financial services. At its core, fintech is utilized to help companies, business owners and consumers better manage their financial operations, processes, and lives by utilizing specialized software and algorithms that are used on computers and, increasingly, smartphones. Fintech, the word, is a combination of "financial technology".
When fintech emerged in the 21st Century, the term was initially applied to the technology employed at the back-end systems of established financial institutions. Since then, however, there has been a shift to more consumer-oriented services and therefore a more consumer-oriented definition. Fintech now includes different sectors and industries such as education, retail banking, fundraising and nonprofit, and investment management to name a few.
Fintech also includes the development and use of cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin. While that segment of fintech may see the most headlines, the big money still lies in the traditional global banking industry and its multi-trillion-dollar market capitalization.
Translation - Spanish ¿Qué es la Tecnología Financiera?
Tecnología financiera (fintech, por sus siglas en inglés “Financial Technology) es el término que se utiliza para describir a las nuevas tecnologías que buscan mejorar automatizando la recepción y el uso de servicios financieros. Principalmente, fintech ayuda a las compañías, dueños de negocios y consumidores a administrar mejor sus operaciones, procesos y vidas financieras al utilizar software especializado y algoritmos empleados en computadoras y, potencialmente, celulares inteligentes.
Cuando fintech emergió en el siglo XXI, el término fue inicialmente aplicado a la tecnología empleada en los sistemas de fondo en instituciones financieras establecidas. Desde entonces, hubo una transición en el significado del término a un servicio más orientado al consumidor y por lo tanto a una definición más orientada a este último. Actualmente, fintech abarca diferentes sectores e industrias como la educación, la banca, la administración de inversiones, recaudadores y organizaciones sin fines de lucro, por nombrar algunos.
Fintech también incluye el desarrollo y el uso de criptomonedas como el bitcoin. Aunque esa cara de fintech obtiene mayor reconocimiento en los medios, el mayor ingreso todavía yace en la industria bancaria tradicional global y su capitalización bursátil de varios billones de dólares.

Mexico has most of the world's native Spanish speakers*. Yet, brands insist on using flat general Spanish in their campaigns. Or worse, they distribute the same content used in Spain.
Hello visitors! My name is Diego. I'm an English to Mexican Spanish marketing and technical translator.
Are you considering to communicate with a Mexican audience?
My job is to help you connect with local audiences in Mexico. Together, we can tailor the tone and register of your writing to serve your purposes.

Whether you want to sell a product, offer guidance, or raise your voice, I'll help you achieve your goals. Whatever it is, let's make it Mexican.
Mexican consumers are family-oriented and love traditions. They're more likely to engage with your content if it's associated with their culture. But,
How familiar do you want to get?
Don't get caught using a poor Mexican disguise with flat Spanish texts. Most of our population don't use big hats and travel on donkeys anymore. Even so, we use a vivid vocabulary that resembles our colorful dresses and traditions.
