I'd go to the future to find out if I should be making plans to change professions now and avoid being phased out in the future. | | | To the future for a while | Oct 9, 2017 |

I got used to the modern technology. There's no way I'd go back to the past and work with dictionaries and typewriters again. I'd go to the future only for a while, to find out if MTs actually replaced translators or not. | | | To report site rules violations or get help, contact a site moderator: You can also contact site staff by submitting a support request » Poll: If you were a time travelling translator, where would you go first?
