Hello everyone!

[Milecha al´Hergon]

Hi! I'm rather new here, and I've never really been active on any online forum before.

I first started reading Wheel of Time in 2003, at the age of 13, but I still haven't finished, partly because I lost interest in the series for some years, and partly because I haven't had time to read as much as I'd like after starting again.

Right now I'm studying English at a university in Finland, my home country, and I'd like to be a translator when I've graduated.

I hope everyone here has a good start of the year!

Welcome Milecha! :welcome Are you going to be rereading or finishing the series? I hope you enjoy the site!

 

[Ashlyn Sindal]

Welcome! How far into the series have you read? Is there a particular type of translation work you're interested in going into?

 

[Roheryn ni Galghandhrei t'al'Djinn]

Welcome, Milecha! If you have any questions, or just want to chat, feel free to message me!

 

[Milecha al´Hergon]

Thanks for all your replies, I'll do my best to reply to all of them

I started rereading the series bit over a year ago, and I'm currently at the start of "Crossroads of Twilight". I did get a bit further the last time (I think I was reading "Knife of Dreams" when I stopped), but I've forgotten a lot, so I thought it was best to start all over again.

I'd like to translate books or TV- shows, or maybe movies. The subtitles in theatres are generally OK in Finnish, but not that good in Swedish, (we have double subtitles in movie- theatres in Finland) so that could be intersting to me.

Hello, Milecha, and welcome!

As Sailea said, it's great to find someone fond of translation. I'm also studying to be a translator, although I'd also like to try teaching.

Hi hello and welcome!

Tervetuloa verkkosivuilla! (although I'm not sure that's right... my dad isn't very reliable sometimes.)

Hi Milecha! Welcome to Tar Valon. I'm about to start a re-read myself -- a site-wide re-read, actually. You're welcome to join in, provided you don't mind spoilers from the books you haven't read.

Hope to see you around some more!
