I need AI translations English > Portuguese checked
We have approx 4,200 words of auto (AI) translations English > Portuguese that need proofreading/editing. These are largely product descriptions for a retail/fashion/sport website – ideally all changes will be taken in directly into the CMS. The majority of the copy will not need to be written from scratch, but the AI translations will need to be checked/proofed/edited to make sure it makes sense, is grammatically correct, etc. Some rewriting may be required in some areas where the auto translations need work. Ideally you will also have experience writing for the retail/fashion/sport space. Approx three hours work.
