International Translation Day is celebrated on September 30 each year. This day recognizes the vital role that translators and interpreters play in facilitating communication across different languages and cultures. It aims to promote the profession and raise awareness about the importance of translation in our globalized world. The date was chosen to honor the feast of Saint Jerome, the patron saint of translators, who is known for his translation of the Bible into Latin. International Translation Day encourages appreciation for the work of language professionals and highlights the significance of translation in fostering understanding and cooperation among people worldwide.
