Freelance Translator in Salamanca: Professional Translation for Businesses and Individuals

If you're looking for a freelance translator in Salamanca, you've probably come across mostly large agencies, many of them focused on sworn/certified translation. I'm Silvia Delgado, a freelance translator trained at the University of Salamanca, and I work directly with businesses and individuals — including international students, expats, and companies — who need translation, proofreading, localization, or copywriting done well, without going through an agency intermediary.

Why work with a local freelance translator

Trained at the University of Salamanca

I studied for a degree in Translation and Interpreting at the University of Salamanca, one of Spain's leading faculties for this discipline. That training is the technical foundation behind every project I take on — translation isn't just knowing two languages, it's mastering the theory and practice of translation as a professional discipline.

Direct contact, no middleman

When you work with an agency, your project usually passes through a project manager who assigns it to different translators, often without you knowing who's actually handling your text. With me, you speak directly with the person translating, reviewing, and delivering your project — meaning faster communication, fewer misunderstandings about tone or context, and a single point of accountability for the final result.

Real proximity, not just geography

Working with someone in your city helps when a project calls for it: understanding local context, coordinating on the same time zone, or simply having a direct conversation instead of dealing with a generic support desk.

The kind of projects I typically handle in Salamanca

Businesses and individuals in Salamanca and the surrounding area come to me mostly for:

• Translation of business and technical documentation for small and mid-sized companies starting to sell abroad (product sheets, catalogs, presentations for international clients).
• Website localization and translation for Salamanca-based businesses looking to attract international customers or tourism — hospitality, retail, professional services.
• Proofreading and editing, both for companies and for academic work connected to the city's large university community.
• Copywriting for local businesses that need web or marketing content that actually converts, not just content that "reads well."

If your project involves commercial, technical, or marketing translation, or website localization, that's exactly the kind of work I specialize in. (If you specifically need a sworn/certified translation with official legal standing for a public body — university enrollment paperwork, residency documents, birth certificates — I don't produce that myself, but I do manage it: see my article on sworn/certified translation in Salamanca for how that works.)
