Hippokrene is a Swedish-based business run by Linda Antonsson with the help of her partner, Elio M. Garcia, Jr. They specialize in translation and, to a lesser degree, other language-related activities such as proof-reading.
As a native speaker of Swedish, who has studied translation as well as English (and holds a Cambridge Certificate of Proficiency in English, Grade A), Linda is able to handle translating complex as well as colloquial English texts into good, idiomatic Swedish. Since 2006, Linda has worked as a freelance subtitler for Softitler and SDI Media.
Linda is also able to translate from Swedish to English, and in these cases the final text is scrutinized by Elio, who is a native English speaker with a degree in English from the University of Gothenburg. In addition to knowing English and Swedish, Elio (as a Cuban-American) also has good knowledge of Spanish, and is able to translate from Spanish into either English or Swedish. In the latter case, the text is naturally scrutinized by Linda, to ensure that it reads well to a native speaker of Swedish.
