About me

My name is  Daniel Šebesta. I was born in Písek, South Bohemia, Czech Republic, in 1987, but I live in Prague now.

Although I only recently passed my school-leaving exams, I've been a lexicographer (German and  Czech) for a few years now. Published books I co-worked on include:

  • Německo-český a česko-německý studijní slovník (German-Czech and  Czech-German Learner's Dictionary, 5th ed., 2004, ISBN 80-7182-178-0)
  • Česko-německý a německo-český kapesní slovník (Czech-German and  German-Czech Pocket Dictionary, 3rd ed., 2004, ISBN 80-7182-173-X)
  • Němčina pro au pair (German for Au Pair, 1st ed., 2005, ISBN 80-7182-198-5)
  • Německo-český a česko-německý studijní slovník (German-Czech and  Czech-German Learner's Dictionary, 6th ed., 2006, ISBN 80-7182-204-3)

I work as an English-to-Czech, German-to-Czech, and  Slovak-to-Czech translator and  proofreader specializing in technical texts. I am a member of the American Translators Association as well as of the Czech Union of Interpreters and  Translators.

I'm starting German and  Czech studies at Charles University in Prague this October.

My interests

I generally focus on articles about literature, esp. Czech, languages, and  about many different things concerning the Czech Republic and  its history, politics, etc.

As I don't have  very much time, I often only correct and/or expand existing articles. I am  also active on the Czech Wikipedia.
