Oops ... I have always assumed that all professional translators type with their 10 fingers, otherwise they are not professional. Silly me

After 30 years translating full-time plus a few years part-time I’ve just discovered to my amazement and amusement that I’m not a professional…


I had to go to typing courses, as they still existed when I was in school.
But people born in the 90's usually learned how to type all by themselves, and who said using all 10 fingers is required? I mean who made that rule?
I think my son can type in a virtual keypad in his cell phone, using only his thumbs, almost as fast as I can type with all 10 fingers, plus my tongue and my forehead sometimes.
