The bilingual desk
A schedule notice needs to work in English and Spanish without changing its meaning.
Pick roles
Meaning keeper: mark conditions, dates and uncertainty.
Language partner: draft natural wording for the intended readers.
Fresh reader: explain each version in their own words.
Work through it
Compare what readers understood. Ask a fluent speaker to review language you cannot reliably check yourselves.
Make this together
Two versions plus a note about the terms you clarified.
Check the result
Did either version turn a proposed change into a final decision?
