EDMF Language Services Kft. has supported the Budapest Burns Supper, the largest annual charity event of the 20-year-old Robert Burns International Foundation, for 5 years now.
The Robert Burns International Foundation (RBIF) was established by members of the Scottish and Hungarian community. It has been supporting children’s health-care institutions in Hungary for 20 years.
The main event of the foundation, the Annual Budapest Burns Supper, was held on 21 January this year. The timing of the event also has special significance; the gala night is always organised on the Saturday closest to the birthday of Scotland’s greatest poet, Robert Burns (25 January).
This year’s event was a huge success in the history of the foundation. During the evening, the 317 guests raised a record sum of more than EUR 26,000 from donations to help the children.
The donations this year will be spent in support of the Children’s Hospital in Miskolc, the 2nd Department of Paediatrics at Semmelweis University, the neonatal unit of the Péterfy Children’s Hospital and the Zabar Nursery School in Nógrád county. Further projects are under consultation.
The raised sum will be spent on medical devices and on facilitating the care of underprivileged children in Zabar.
In 2017, EDMF was one of the main sponsors of the Burns Supper. Founder of the company, Douglas Arnott, has been organising the charity event for 5 years. He is also the Chairman and Member of the Curatorium of the RBIF.
EDMF not only participated in organising the event, but provides continuous support for the foundation through its translation services as well as encouraging and managing sponsors.
The Robert Burns International Foundation not only boasts a long history, but it also has a line of distinguished supporters. The honorary president of the foundation is Sir Alex Ferguson, one of the most successful coaches of British football, while its patron is Iain Lindsay, Ambassador of the United Kingdom to Hungary.
The Ferenc Puskás – Sir Alex Ferguson Award is also handed over on the gala night to the Sponsor of the Year. The Robert Burns International Foundation created the award to recognise the valuable support provided by the companies who donate to help Hungarian children’s hospitals. The widow of the legendary footballer, Erzsébet Puskás, and Sir Alex gladly joined the initiative.

It is perhaps not an exaggeration to claim that the translation of medical and pharmaceutical documents requires extreme precision, the utmost care and considerable professional experience. One mistranslation can have very serious consequences. But how can you make sure that no mistakes are made, what should you look out for when requesting the translation of pharmaceutical texts?
In order to choose a good language service provider it is best to take these five criteria into account, making sure you receive certified, quality and reliable services – simply a must in this field.
1.Expandable term base
Good translation agencies lay significant emphasis on developing term bases in close consultation with the client. This is not only useful because it helps to prevent potential mistakes in terminology, but also because it can reduce the cost of future translations. This means that recurring technical terms only have to be translated once.
2. Trained specialists
Professional translation agencies only work with qualified translators. Accordingly, professionals in healthcare and pharmaceutical fields who also have degrees in translation or interpreting are the resources of choice for such linguistic tasks.
3. Professional experience
In pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors, which come with great responsibility, you can rightfully expect that your translator/interpreter should have considerable professional experience and up-to-date knowledge.
4. Professional technological background
Industry-specific texts such as discharge summaries and patent descriptions often have to be treated confidentially. You should make sure that your translation agency has a password-protected online interface so you can monitor your orders throughout the whole process.
5. Project management approach
Your translation agency should have a competent project manager, who supervises the entire process from choosing a competent translator, through quality assurance to ensuring appropriate antivirus protection of your documents, whilst also being available at any time in any other matter.
+ 1 tip: Top translation agencies have no hidden costs, and are happy to provide a short test translation.

How To Cook In Hungary – a unique book on Hungarian gastronomy, translating cuisine.
Translating books is especially dear to our hearts. Particularly if the job entails winemakers, celebrities, sports people, artists and chefs, all of whom share their favourite recipes and personal culinary stories with the reader.
The translation of a unique book on gastronomy
This job was a real treat for EDMF Translations, from all perspectives. For us, translating this exclusive culinary book was full of fun experiences, not only because of the rewarding topic, but also because of the specialist language of gastronomy.
3 styles, 3 languages of translation
In actual fact, the “book” comprises 3 books in one: the stories of famous personalities, recipes of their favourite dishes, and wine recommendations from renowned winemakers. The three different fields required that the translators master three distinct registers. We translated the Hungarian recipes, the personal stories and the expert descriptions of the wine recommendations with the same precision, in order to faithfully reflect the singularity of the book’s English version too.
During the translation we learnt a lot of charming stories from the interviewees, for example that László Cseh, Olympic silver and bronze medallist, world and European champion, 100 times Hungarian champion swimmer, is a true steak fan. But in the book we can also read about traditional Hungarian dishes like tripe stew interpreted by artists including the world-renowned opera singers Andrea Rost and Erika Miklósa.
Gastronomy experiences of Olympic medallists and opera singers
In How To Cook In Hungary, 30 famous winemakers and 30 celebrities, including 13 Olympic champions, reveal to us their gastronomic experiences. Translating the 60 interviews, the more than 80 recipes and the recommendations of beautiful Hungarian wines was a truly rewarding and fascinating task.
The book was launched at a ceremonial event in the venerable Gundel Restaurant on 22 November 2016. Almost all of the participating celebrities in the book were in attendance, while many ambassadors currently posted to Budapest also graced the event with their presence. We were particularly delighted that EDMF was granted a prominent position at the event as a fitting end to this worthy project.
