International Translation Day 2023
Important Days
Every year on September 30, the world observes International Translation Day in honor of Saint Jerome, the Bible translator. In a world as diverse as ours, where language can be a barrier, translation emerges as a vital bridge facilitating understanding and communication among people of different tongues. International Translation Day, established by the United Nations, stands as a tribute to the remarkable contributions of translators and language specialists. The origins of International Translation Day trace back to the profound influence of St. Jerome, often referred to as the 'Father Of Translation.' This annual observance has been in place since the establishment of the International Federation of Translators in 1953.
