It&#8217;s a broad set of fields on paper, but they share a common thread: precision matters, and so does tone.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The best of both worlds<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I bring the efficiency of well-managed translation and editing processes \u2013 learned through years in industry and higher education \u2013 together with the consistency and care of an individual approach. When deadlines demand more hands, I also work with a trusted network of professional colleagues and experienced translators who share the same quality standards.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where technology meets judgment<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Translation technology isn&#8217;t just a tool I use \u2013 it&#8217;s a field I actively engage with, from supporting fellow users to shaping how these systems evolve. My work today combines Trados Studio 2026 with AI-assisted translation workflows, always with a human-in-the-loop approach: technology accelerates the process, but judgment, nuance, and quality control stay firmly in human hands. I&#8217;m equally comfortable handling complex file formats from content management systems, InDesign, or software resource files.<\/p>\n<p>You can expect my work to meet the professional standards of Germany&#8217;s leading translation association, sharpened by a technology-forward approach that never loses sight of the human reader on the other end.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><div class=\"flex_column av_one_fourth  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding   avia-builder-el-2  el_after_av_three_fourth  el_before_av_hr  \" style='border-radius:0px; '><div  class='avia-image-container  av-styling-    avia-builder-el-3  avia-builder-el-no-sibling  avia-align-center '  itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"  ><div class='avia-image-container-inner'><div class='avia-image-overlay-wrap'><img class='wp-image-219 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-219 avia_image' src=\"https:\/\/mccosh.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Webversion-225x300.jpg\" alt='Daniel McCosh' title='' height=\"300\" width=\"225\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mccosh.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Webversion-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/mccosh.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Webversion-773x1030.jpg 773w, https:\/\/mccosh.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Webversion-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mccosh.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Webversion-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/mccosh.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Webversion-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/mccosh.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Webversion-1125x1500.jpg 1125w, https:\/\/mccosh.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Webversion-529x705.jpg 529w, https:\/\/mccosh.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Webversion.jpg 1772w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div   class='hr hr-default   avia-builder-el-4  el_after_av_one_fourth  el_before_av_image '><span class='hr-inner ' ><span class='hr-inner-style'><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/p>\n<div  class='avia-image-container  av-styling-    avia-builder-el-5  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_one_half  avia-align-left '  itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"  ><div class='avia-image-container-inner'><div class='avia-image-overlay-wrap'><img class='wp-image-230 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-230 avia_image' src=\"https:\/\/mccosh.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/i-work-with-trados-badge-rws_i-work-with-trados-badge-rws-250x170-teal.png\" alt='' title='i-work-with-trados-badge-rws_i-work-with-trados-badge-rws-250x170-teal' height=\"170\" width=\"250\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"flex_column av_one_half  flex_column_div first  avia-builder-el-6  el_after_av_image  avia-builder-el-last  \" ><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mccosh.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/120"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mccosh.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mccosh.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mccosh.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mccosh.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=120"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/mccosh.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/120\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":232,"href":"https:\/\/mccosh.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/120\/revisions\/232"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mccosh.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=120"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
