Source text - Catalan Oferta d’oci
Barcelona compta actualment amb una oferta lúdica i d’oci nocturn envejable. Els nous centres comercials se sumen a les artèries comercials de tota la vida. L’agenda cultural anuncia contínuament esdeveniments, festivals, festes populars i trobades professionals. Barcelona és al candeler internacional i compta amb una àmplia oferta de places hoteleres per donar resposta a l’expectació i l’interès creixent per aquesta ciutat.
Durant el 2013 es va arribar a la xifra de 700.000 visitants de congressos, al Sònar 66.000 visitants internacionals, pel Circuit festival 70.000.
També l'excel·lència de la gastronomia representada pels nombrosos premis i reconeixement internacional dels restaurants de la casa nostra.
Per últim els grans èxits esportius del F.C.Barcelona fa que la gent, per la via de l'esport, pugui reconèixer el nom de Barcelona. Si situéssim els visitants del museu del F.C.Barcelona en el llistat de museus d'art més visitats del món estaria en el número 18, amb la xifra de 1.600.000 visites.
A causa del gran coneixement i prestigi de la marca Barcelona s'engloben moltes altes zones o activitats que realment no hi pertanyen, però que permeten un coneixement internacional. Amb el temps agafarà importància la marca Catalunya, però fins aleshores s'ha d'aprofitar la feina ben feta de Barcelona.
Alguns d'aquests casos són la Costa Brava amb les seves precioses cales o el museu Dalí, Tarragona amb equipaments com Port Aventura, les zones vinícoles, els Castellers, o tot el Pirineu amb activitats durant totes les èpoques de l'any.
Això queda palès amb la proposta de la candidatura als Jocs olímpics d'hivern de la ciutat de Barcelona, tot i disputar-se al Pirineu, o la construcció al Camp de Tarragona del complex Barcelona World. Dos exemples de com la marca Barcelona s'utilitza per captar l'atenció del públic internacional tot i quedar fora del seu àmbit territorial.
Translation - English Entertainment
Barcelona enjoys an enviable array of gambling and night-life options. Our new shopping centres supplement the good old streets of shops we have always had. The cultural calendar is continually announcing events, festivals, local celebrations, and business encounters. Barcelona is in the international spotlight and offers ample choice of accommodation in answer to the growing expectation, and interest in the city.
In 2013 there were 700,000 visiting participants in conventions, 66,000 international Sonar attendees, and 70,000 visitors came for the Circuit festival.
There is also the excellence of our gastronomy, represented in the numerous prizes and the international recognition conferred upon the restaurants of this land of ours.
And finally, the great success of F.C. Barcelona allows people the opportunity, through sport, to recognize Barcelona by name. Were we to situate the F.C. Barcelona Museum's visitors on the list of the most oft visited art museums in the world, it would be in 18th place, with 1,600,000 visitors.
As a result of the fame and prestige of the Barcelona brand, many other places and activities that do not really pertain to it are merged with it, and this lends them international recognition. In time, the Catalonia brand will become important, but until then, Barcelona's job well-done will have to be made use of.
Some cases of this are: The Costa Brava, with its gorgeous inlets and the Dalí Museum; Tarragona with its leisure facilities like Port Aventura, the wine country, the Castellars, and all of the Pyrenees with its year-round activities.
This is evident in the consideration of Barcelona as a possible host for the Winter Olympics, even though they would be played in the Pyrenees, and in the construction of the Barcelona World Complex in Camp de Tarragona. Two examples of how the Barcelona brand is used to grab international public attention even from outside its territorial ambit.

Experience
Years of experience: 18. Registered at ProZ.com: Aug 2015.
I have been
teaching English and working as a translator since 2001, but my great passion
is literature, and I have read hundreds of great works in Spanish, Catalan, and
of course English. I have done practice translations of stories by giants like Gabriel
García Márquez and Mercè Rodoreda, basking in their splendor.
I have chosen
to specialize in general and literary translation because I enjoy
content that is social. I enjoy striving to put across the full intent of the
original in a tone that is appropriate in the other culture, all the while
adhering as much as possible to verbatim translation.
