Native French speakers only.
I have a social networking website that i will be expanding soon. This will require a full translations of all texts from the site into French. For simplicty i have moved all texts from the site's code to a single file.
A sample of this file is attached.
The full file is approx 10,000 words, in addition i have some email templates and a few other odds and ends that will need translations. Probably over 13,000 words in total.
As some of the phrases are very short it maybe neccersary for you to review the context of the phrase by seeing how it is used within the site etc.
Many phrases are used multiple times, it is therefore important to maintain consistancy in translation where there are translation options.
You should be committed to the project and offer a clear deadline that you are able to stick to.
I would like periodic updates of new translations.
I will not make partial payments. 80% of the completed job will be paid on delivery of all texts, the last 20% will be paid 1 month later after an opportunity has been taken to test the accuracy of the texts and you have made neccersary changes.
Most translations will be simple literal ones, there will be a few occasions when creative translations will be needed though. The site's terms and conditions of use will be included and naturally extra care will be needed to make sure their effectivness is not compromised. They have been written in clear english, not legalesse.
I am a very responsive employer and will be available multiple times per day to deal with questions etc.
You should quote for 12,000 words. I will escrow that amount. Adjustments based on actual word count will be dealt with at the end of the project using the bonus system.
Thanks!
