Abstract
There is no denying China’s growing importance on the global stage. China is investing more and more outside its borders – in numerous African countries, in many South America nations, and across the European continent. How does China’s increased trade with countries in Europe affect the language services industry? In this Quick Take, we explore the growing need for translation work in Chinese language combinations, and the use of English as a “pivot language” when direct translation is not possible.
