about me
My name is Georgios and I am from Athens. My mother tongues are Greek and Spanish, and I am fluent in English, French and Catalan, following more than 30 years of language studies and having lived in France, Spain and Germany. I have two postgraduate degrees – in Translation (Pompeu Fabra University, Barcelona) and in Theory of Language (EHESS, Paris) – and a four-year degree in Law (Aristotle University of Thessaloniki). Detailed information can be found on my resume.
greXicon was born out of my long-time passion for languages, creative writing and communication. I always aim for quality and accurate translations, prioritizing the natural flow of speech and avoiding overly complicated sentences, which are often the result of a sterile attachment to the source text. This ensures all translations give the impression of being the original texts while being orthographically and grammatically flawless.
My experience in project management for major translation companies has equipped me with the ability to understand the needs of clients and to efficiently organize every project I undertake.
And all this at fair prices.
