Source text - English COLOGNE
UNESCO World Heritage Site
You have a morning tour of Cologne, including a visit to the Dom, Germany’s largest cathedral and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. After your tour, spend the rest of the day and evening exploring Cologne on your own. There are Roman ruins, interesting neighborhoods and wonderful museums like the Fragrance Museum and the Chocolate Museum. As always, your Program Director can help you plan your free time. Lunch and dinner are served aboard; we depart at midnight. (B, L, D)
Translation - Swedish KÖLN
På morgonen kommer vi till Köln där vi går på stadsrundvandring och besöker Tysklands största katedral Kölnerdomen som finns med på Unescos världsarvslista. Ägna resten av dagen och kvällen med att upptäcka Köln på egen hand. Där finns romerska ruiner, fascinerande omgivningar och underbara museum som doftmuseet och chokladmuseet. Som alltid kan din reseledare hjälpa dig med planeringen. Vi återvänder för lunch och middag ombord innan vi seglar vidare vid midnatt. (F, L, M)
English to Swedish: Pamphlet on bipolar disorder General field: Medical Detailed field: Medical: Health Care
Source text - English It is possible for someone with bipolar disorder to experience a long-lasting period of unstable moods rather than discrete episodes of depression or mania.
A person may be having an episode of bipolar disorder if he or she has a number of manic or depressive symptoms for most of the day, nearly every day, for at least one or two weeks. Sometimes symptoms are so severe that the person cannot function normally at work, school, or home.
Translation - Swedish Lider man av bipolär sjukdom kan man uppleva en långvarig period av skiftande humör, snarare än åtskilda episoder av depressivitet eller mani.
Man kan lida av en bipolär sjukdomsepisod om man visar återkommande maniska eller depressiva symptom under en hel dag, nästan varje dag eller under en till två veckor. Ibland kan symptomen vara så allvarliga att man inte kan fungera normalt på sitt arbete, i skolan eller hemma.

Source text - Swedish Äldre paleozoiska sedimetbergarter
Sedimentära bergarter av paleozoisk ålder påträffas på Öland och längs Smålandskusten, från norr i höjd med Runnö (5G 7i) utanför Påskallavik, ner till Jämjö (3G 5b), drygt 15 km söder om Brömsebro. De utgörs av en välbevarad fossilförande lagerserie, som vilar direkt på urberget. De äldsta lagren började bildas under äldre kambrium, dvs. för ca 540 miljoner år sedan, och de yngsta bevarade bergarterna räknas till den yngre delen av mellersta ordovicium och är ca 450 miljoner år gamla.
I ett regionalgeologiskt perspektiv utgör det aktuella kartområdet en del av den nordvästliga begränsningen av ett större, sammanhängande täcke av sedimentbergarter i Östersjöbäckenets skålformiga fördjupning i den baltiska urbergskölden. Dess djupaste del, och därmed också området med de största lagermäktigheterna (>2 000 m), återfinns i sydöst ner mot Polens och Litauens kustområden. På sydöstra Öland är de sedimentära bergarterna sammanlagt drygt 200 m mäktiga och tunnar successivt ut i västlig riktning. Över stora ytor visar urberget en ganska plan yta med svag lutning åt öster och sydöst, men i vissa områden finns topografiskt framträdande restberg bevarade. Mest påfallande av dessa är Blå Jungfrun (5H 9b) i norra Kalmarsund, Skäggenäshalvön (4G 9h) samt Mossbergadomen (4G 8j) intill Högsrum på Öland. Blå Jungfrun består av yngre granit, medan de andra är uppbyggda av kvartsit.
Translation - English Early Palaeozoic Sedimentary Rock
Sedimentary rock of Palaeozoic age is encountered on Öland and along the Småland coast, on a level with Runnö in the north (5G 7i) outside of Påskallavik, down to Jämjö (3G 5b), fully 15 kilometres south of Brömsebro. They form a well-kept fossiliferous stratigraphic sequence that lies directly on the basement rock. The oldest layers started forming during Early Cambrian, i.e. circa 540 million years ago. The youngest preserved rocks are regarded as the later part of Middle Ordovician and are circa 450 million years old.
In a regional geological perspective the immediate map area constitutes a part of the north-western border of a larger, continuous covering of sedimentary rock in the bowl-shaped depth of the Baltic Sea Basin in the Baltic basement rock shield. Its deepest part, and thus also the area with the largest thickness layers (>2 000 metres), is to be found in the south east, down towards the coastal areas of Poland and Lithuania. On south eastern Öland the sedimentary rocks are in all fully 200 metres thick and grow gradually thinner in a westward direction. Over large areas the basement rock shows a rather flat surface with a slight inclination towards east and south east, although in some areas topographical prominent residual mountains are preserved. Most striking of these are Blå Jungfrun (5H 9b) in northern Kalmar Sound, the Skäggenäs Peninsula (4G 9h) and Mossbergadomen (4G 8j) quite close to Högsrum on Öland. Blå Jungfrun contains later granite, while the others are constructed of quartzite.

Source text - Swedish Visserligen hade bilder av tänkbara planeter publicerats tidigare, men det rörde sig om tveksamma fall, där viktrelationen och arkitekturen i systemet påminde betydligt mer om ett dubbelstjärnsystem än ett planetsystem. HR 8799 hade tre synliga planeter, med rimliga massförhållanden till stjärnan, och med banor i samma plan, närapå cirkulära. Ett klockrent bevis på att de måste ha formats i en ”protostellär skiva”, precis som planeterna i vårt eget solsystem.
Senare forskning har visat att systemet dessutom har två asteroidbälten, ett innanför den innersta jätteplaneten likt asteroidbältet i vårt solsystem, och ett utanför den yttersta planeten, precis som Kuiperbältet. Eftersom stjärnan har större massa än solen, planeterna har större massa än Jupiter och avstånden är större än motsvarande avstånd i solsystemet kan man säga att systemet HR 8799 i många avseenden är likt en uppskalad variant av vårt eget. Vad som ligger innanför det inre bältet går inte att se med dagens teknik, men det ligger nära till hands att spekulera över att där kan finnas mer jordliknande, ”steniga” planeter.
Translation - English It is true that there had been earlier publications of pictures of conceivable planets, but it concerned dubious occurrences where the relation in weight and the structure of the system reminded considerably more of a binary star system, than a planetary system. HR 8799 had three visible planets with reasonable proportions of mass compared to the star, and with almost circular orbits on the same plane. This is a proof as clear as day that the planets must have been formed in a “protostellar disc”, just like the planets in our own solar system.
Besides, later research have shown that the system has two asteroid belts, one within the innermost giant planet, similar to the asteroid belt in our solar system, and one outside the outermost planet, exactly like the Kuiper belt. Since the star has a higher mass than the Sun, the planets have a higher mass than Jupiter and the distances are bigger than the corresponding distance in the solar system, you could say that the HR 8799 system in many ways is like an enlarged scale version of our own solar system. What lies within the inner belt is not visible with modern technology, but it lies near at hand to speculate that there can be more “rocky” Earth-like planets.

Experience
Years of experience: 10. Registered at ProZ.com: Mar 2015.
I am living in Sweden, where I was born, and currently I am running my own private firm, where I translate different types of texts from English to Swedish. I have experience with students and with teaching as a profession; I am also educated in teaching students Swedish as a second language.
I have also done some non-profit work, such as proofreading, for the Rosetta Foundation; www.therosettafoundation.org.
During (Sep 2013-Jun 2014) I have been studying translation, but before that I studied teaching, and I have also been working as a techer (see the attached CV).
I am very interested in languages and I enjoy translating, but my interests also include music; Country & Western, Rockabilly, Rockn'n'Roll, dancing above all Lindy hop, literature, astronomy, clothing, health, and training.
