With Languages In Mind: Musings Of A Polyglot

Kato Lomb (1909–2003) was one of the great polyglots of the 20th century. A translator and one of the first simultaneous interpreters in the world, Lomb worked in 16 languages for state and business concerns in her native Hungary. She achieved further fame by writing books on languages, interpreting, and polyglots. In 'With Languages in Mind', originally published in Hungary as 'Nyelvekrol jut eszembe...' (1983), Dr. Lomb presents her views on subjects ranging from language differences, language use, the inherent compromises in interpreting, and language learning. --
