Bronwen Davies, MA MITI — Watership Translations

German and French into British English Translator, Editor & Proofreader.

Hi there! I am a professional freelance translator with nearly two decades of experience helping clinical, academic and creative clients share their work safely and beautifully. By blending linguistic precision with a friendly, conscientious approach, I provide top-quality translations that read naturally and deliver absolute accuracy.

Why work with me?

• Elite Credentials: I hold a Master’s in Translation Studies (with Merit) and am a fully Qualified Member of the Institute of Translation and Interpreting (MITI), compliant with ISO 17100 quality standards

.

• Academic Background: Upper Second Class Honours degree in German and French Studies, including immersive years abroad in Toulouse, France, and Erfurt, Germany.

• Versatile Language Solutions: I translate from German and French into native British English, with US English seamlessly provided upon request for global compliance.

Services Offered:

• Translation: Accurate and elegant translations using Trados and MemoQ to ensure absolute consistency and seamless translation memory management.

• Editing & Proofreading: Comprehensive style, grammar and consistency checks.

• Bilingual Reviews: Meticulous line-by-line verification comparing an English text directly against its German or French original.

My Three Main Specialisms:

❤️ Medicine & Pharmaceuticals: Over 18 years of experience translating clinical trials, Informed Consent Forms (ICFs), Summaries of Product Characteristics (SmPCs), Patient Information Leaflets (PILs), medical device brochures and medical reports, with a core specialism in cardiology. I also provide official, ITI-sealed certified translations of German medical credentials for GMC registration.

🏛️ Arts, Culture & Heritage: Bringing a lifelong passion for music and history to creative texts. I specialise in historical accounts, memoirs, biographies, museum exhibition texts, digital newsletters for classical music orchestras and live performance write-ups for a local brass band.

⛪ Theology & Religion: As a committed Christian, I offer sensitive, context-aware translation and editing for theology articles, international conference reports, sermons and educational plans. Translations are fully informed by deep personal faith knowledge, academic research skills and supported by specialist terminology consultation with a practising Bible minister.
