All this would not have been possible without this incredible team of volunteers, both the TEDx Organizers who are finding these incredible speakers and the Translators who are labouring to make their words available across languages. The translators tend to spend 8 to 10 hours on each translation. We now have more than 20,000 translations of TEDTalks in 82 languages. They were done by 6,000 translators. We really want to thank you for your work and for being such extraordinary cultural ambassadors and helping us spread ideas.

June Cohen, Executive Producer of TED Media, speaking ad TEDGlobal 2011


Und so ist jeder Übersetzer anzusehen, Dass er sich als Vermittler dieses allgemein-geistigen Handels bemüht und den Wechseltausch zu befördern sich zum Geschäft macht. Denn was man auch von der Unzulänglichkeit des Übersetzens sagen mag, so ist und bleibt es doch eines der wichtigsten und würdigsten Geschäfte in dem allgemeinen Weltverkehr.
