I’m Colin Peters (Morpheus Press), a British copywriter and translator who understands the nuances and complexities of both Spanish and English. I’ve been settled in Spain for over 20 years, gaining extensive knowledge of the Spanish language and enabling me to deliver copy and translation that ensures that your message is received.

Content Creation
“Words don’t come easy to me.” This hit song by F.R. David in 1982 perfectly sums up the problems that many companies have when communicating on social media. This can also manifest itself in posting too much content or maintaining a high standard when posting. Morpheus Press can create a strategy and needs analysis, thus laying the groundwork for consistently original and quality content.

In 2017 the Puro Group websites (Purobeach and Puro Hotel Palma) needed to be overhauled and written in clear, concise and enticing English. I rewrote the entire site, thus contributing to creating pages that match the welcoming ethos of each establishment.

Translation

Spanish to English translation can be tricky. There are idioms, sayings and slang terms that are difficult to translate, which may result in clunky and stilted language from an inexperienced translator. I have 13 years of experience as a translator and English teacher, which has given me invaluable insight into the grammatical nuances of both languages. I love applying this knowledge when translating, looking at each project as a puzzle that needs to be solved. I have learned how wonderful and varied the Spanish language is as the country has been my home for more than 20 years. I enjoy working out how to exactly say, for example, “por si las moscas” in English. If you want your translation to have the same impact in English as it does in Spanish, hit the button below

Concept Hotel Group has been a client of mine since 2013. This company is one of Spain’s most creative hotel groups and I translate its websites and SEO/SEM. The United Kingdom is one of its main markets so it is important that its websites engage with its target audience.
Can Bordoy Hotel hired me to translate its website and copy since its opening in 2018, and I provided the words to match this stunning 5-star establishment situated in the heart of Palma de Mallorca.

Standard translation
Standard translation closely follows the text in the source language (Spanish) and replicates it in the target language (English). Both texts mirror each other in style and tone. Especially used in product descriptions and technical details.
Localisation
Localisation is a process that adapts your web content for a specific market, in this case English. The language used is designed to appeal to this particular readership, and is especially used when more creative language is appropriate, for example, on the home page, landing pages, about us and service descriptions. The text should read like a natural text originally produced in English, not like a text that has been translated.

Culinary
Translating a menu can be a difficult task, especially when taking in Spain’s rich cultural traditions and regional specialities, from pintxos in the Basque Country to cazon in Andulusia. Two of my favourite things are gastronomy and travelm and I have seen plenty of “lost in translation” moments that have made me laugh over the years!

Press & Magazine
When it comes to magazines, literal word to word translations can result in strange and stilted translation in the target language. The writer of the source language intends for their work to be catchy and witty in order to engage the reader’s attention. Morpheus Press is well-versed in Spanish and its colloquialisms (did you know the word “huevo” has more than 200 different uses?) and can decipher these into snappy and entertaining English that connects with its audience.
