U velikoj tuzi obavještavamo sve članove, kolege i suradnike da je jučer u Zagrebu preminula naša draga kolegica i prijateljica Maša Marušić, jedna od osnivača našega Društva i njegova počasna članica.
Mnogima od nas Maša je bila ne samo mentorica, uzor, i velika podrška na početku našega bavljenja konferencijskim prevođenjem, već je mnogima i predavala tijekom svoje dugogodišnje karijere lektorice na Katedri za engleski jezik Filozofskoga fakulteta u Zagrebu. Učili smo od nje jezik, ljubav prema jeziku, profesionalnost, ali i blagost i ljubaznost u ophođenju i poštovanje prema temama i sugovornicima. Iako u mirovini, Maša se radovala razvoju i aktivnostima HDKP-a i odazivala pozivima na prevoditeljska druženja. Mnogo smo od nje naučili i jako će nam nedostajati.

On Saturday, 30 September 2017, the Croatian Society of Conference Interpreters celebrated the International Translation Day with a get-together of its members and precandidates. The informal gathering was an excellent occasion to meet up with colleagues whom we don’t see that often, and to discuss topics that are not dealt with at our regular meetings and annual assemblies.
