I require a skilled Nepali language expert to proofread and validate the quality of translation of an approximately 3300 word document. The document contains general information that has been translated from English to Nepali. As an individual without expertise in Nepali, I seek an experienced translator to inspect the document for any errors in grammar, vocabulary choice, style or overall flow that could hinder understandability for a native Nepali reader. The translator should be a fluent, native Nepali speaker, knowledgeable of the intricacies and nuances of written Nepali. This individual must have extensive experience in translation work or editing original Nepali language texts. Upon completion of the proofreading task, brief written feedback should be provided identifying any issues, inaccuracies or areas for improvement within the translation. The goal is to verify the translation can effectively communicate its intended message to a local Nepali audience. This is a valuable opportunity for a skilled Nepali language professional to ensure the quality of important written work. The document translation must be carefully proofread with an attention to detail, checking word choices and sentence structures are appropriate for native comprehension. With your language expertise, you can help validate the translation is suitable for its intended Nepali readers. I welcome bids from experienced editing and proofreading professionals capable of thoroughly reviewing the document.

I need a native Tagalog speaker (with excellent grasp of English) to proofread 3 translations from English to Tagalog. The source text is the same, but 3 different translators have worked on it. I need to understand who I should go with. Each text is around 300 words. In your proofreading, I need you to help me understand which of the 3 options is the best, and why. You will need to give each translation a score, make a top 3 and provide evidence of why one option is better than the other. This is a straightforward and quite easy task, but I need someone with a sound understanding of English and translation stakes to help me make my decision. The source text will be provided to you for reference along with the translations.
