Translate Patent Documents Accurately
A batch of patent filings needs to move from English into Arabic and Persian (Dari) while preserving every legal nuance. The text is strictly legal—patents, claims, and prior-art references—so an eye for both technical accuracy and natural legal phrasing is essential. I will supply a terminology list and a short style guide that must be followed throughout. Consistency with that guide is non-negotiable; any term outside the list should be queried before finalising. Deliverables • Fully translated documents in the original layout (editable Word) • Updated bilingual glossary reflecting all approved terms • One round of revisions after my in-house counsel review, turned around within two business days Work begins as soon as the files are received, and the initial draft should land in my inbox within the agreed timeline. Quality, confidentiality, and punctuality will determine acceptance

6 days ago21 proposalsRemoteTranslate Technical PDFs into German
I need a precise, native-level German rendition of several technical/scientific documents that I currently have only as PDFs. Accuracy of terminology is paramount; the text covers specialised concepts and data that must read naturally to a German-speaking engineer or researcher without losing any nuance. You will receive the original PDFs and return the translated content in a format that lets me edit and reuse it easily—Word (.docx) or an equivalent editable file is fine as long as the structure mirrors the source PDF. Acceptance criteria 1. Technical vocabulary is rendered with correct, industry-standard German terms. 2. All tables, figures and captions stay in their original positions and sequence. 3. Final file opens without layout issues and matches the pagination of the source.

10 days ago16 proposalsRemoteLegal Document Translation (Multi-Lingual)
I have a steady flow of company legal documents—contracts, privacy policies, NDAs, regulatory filings—that must be translated with absolute accuracy into Spanish, French and Chinese. I’m interested only in direct, word-for-word fidelity; no cultural adaptation or marketing voice is required. Terminology must stay consistent with the source wording and any references to statutes or clauses must remain intact and precise. My usual process is to share an editable file (Word or PDF) and receive a clean, formatted version that mirrors the original layout plus a tracked-changes or bilingual file for quick cross-checking. Turnaround for most files is five business days or less, but let me know what volume you can handle comfortably—quality is more important than speed. Deliverables • Final translation of each document in Spanish, French and Chinese, identical formatting to source • Optional bilingual or tracked-changes copy for review • Brief glossary of any specialised legal terms that appear ambiguous in the target language I’ll shortlist translators who can show proven experience with legal texts, familiarity with confidentiality protocols, and native-level command of the target language. Please mention relevant certifications (e.g., sworn translator, ATA, ITI) and your typical rate per 1,000 words.

Amazon Listing creation: Create missing ASINS on EU Marketplace
We are a UK-based Amazon seller and we’re expanding our catalogue to the EU marketplaces. We want to list ~250 SKUs currently active on Amazon.co.uk onto the other EU marketplaces (8 marketplaces in total). We’ve already tried Amazon’s BIL (Build International Listings) tool, but a number of SKUs fail with the error: “Selected offers failed auto-translation of ASIN into Amazon” This means some offers are not being created/translated automatically, so we believe we need to create the missing offers via flat files (and/or the relevant listing loader templates) and then upload them per marketplace. Across the 8 marketplaces, we estimate ~50–150 missing listings per marketplace need creating (some SKUs may already exist in some marketplaces, others don’t). What We Need You To Do Review our UK active listings and confirm what’s missing per EU marketplace. Prepare marketplace-specific flat files to create the missing offers/listings. Translate and localise titles + bullet points + descriptions into the required languages, including light SEO keyword optimisation (we can use ChatGPT for translation/keyword ideas if you prefer, but we need you to manage and polish the final output). Upload/guide upload to Seller Central for each marketplace and resolve upload errors until listings are live. Ensure variations (if applicable), attributes, and required fields are completed correctly per marketplace. EU Marketplaces 8 Amazon EU marketplaces including (but not limited to): DE, FR, IT, ES, NL, SE, PL + others depending on what’s linked in our Seller Central. Deliverables Clean, validated flat files per marketplace (ready to upload) Localised listing content (titles/bullets/descriptions) aligned with Amazon requirements A short log/report of what was created per marketplace + any issues/limitations Listings successfully created and visible (or clearly documented if blocked due to brand/GTIN/category restrictions) Ideal Freelancer Experience Strong experience with Amazon Seller Central EU Comfortable with flat files / listing loader templates, resolving error codes, and attribute requirements Understands localisation (not just literal translation) and basic Amazon SEO principles Bonus: experience with BIL limitations and “failed auto-translation” issues What We Will Provide Access to Seller Central Brand/product info where available To Apply, Please Include Examples of similar Amazon EU listing/flat file work Which EU marketplaces you’ve worked on Your suggested process and estimated turnaround
3 days ago16 proposalsRemoteTranslation and Localisation Proofing (English to Thai)
We are looking for a native Thai speaker with professional-level language expertise to support the localisation of short elearning content from English to Thai. Native-level fluency is essential, as this work requires nuanced judgement around tone, pacing, and cultural appropriateness. We are currently localising five short AI and Cyber Security elearning courses from English to Thai. Each course is approximately three to five minutes and includes knowledge check questions. We are looking for support on an hourly basis to review, listen to, and edit the Thai translations directly within our authoring software. You will need to watch five short animations and check that the audio is accurate, correctly paced, and of good quality, with captions properly synced to the voiceover. The task will also include checking multiple choice questions and course descriptions against the original English scripts. This review will be carried out by you, not AI. If this is of interest, please let us know your availability and your hourly rate. We can then set up a short Google Meet call to walk you through the workflow and briefly explain the software we are using. Review Objective Ensure that translations of multiple choice questions, course descriptions, and videos are accurate, culturally appropriate, and suitable for a professional learning audience. Review Scope and Guidelines The batch will include five course descriptions, question sets, and videos. Multiple Choice Questions and Course Descriptions You will only review the already translated Thai text. Accuracy and clarity are critical. Translations must be fully accurate to the original English meaning. Tone should be slightly less formal while remaining professional. Translations must be culturally appropriate for a Thai audience. Please review main course titles and apply correct Thai title casing and conventions. Videos Check that voiceovers are correctly synchronised with the animation and preserve the intended meaning. Confirm that language and tone are appropriate, slightly less formal, and culturally sensitive. Review pacing to ensure the voiceover is not too fast. Proper pacing is essential for learner comprehension. If pacing is too fast, shorten the translation while preserving clarity and meaning. Ensure any shortened versions still accurately convey the original message. Appropriate pacing and clarity should support an engaging and effective learning experience.

a month ago5 proposalsRemoteNative Spanish Literary Editor for Creative Non-Fiction Essay
I am looking for a native Spanish speaker with a background in literary translation or creative writing to review and polish a Spanish translation of a personal essay. The essay is a piece of creative non-fiction (approx. 3220 words). The translation has already been completed, but I need another set of eyes to ensure the rhythm, emotional weight, and imagery land correctly for a native reader. This is not a corporate document, a news report, or a technical manual. It is a poetic narrative. Do not sterilise the language. The text employs metaphors, personification, and specific imagery. Preserve the imagery. If a sentence seems structurally unusual because it is metaphorical, please discuss with me to ensure the intention is coming across accurately. Rhythm matters. The prose relies on cadence and sound (prosody). The Spanish needs to flow with the same gravity and lyricism as the English original. What I need you to do: Read the Spanish translation alongside the English original. Correct any genuine grammatical errors or unnatural phrasing. Flag/Edit instances where the rhythm is clunky. Protect or clarify the creative choices. Ideal Candidate: Native Spanish speaker. Experience translating or editing fiction, poetry, or creative essays. Understands the difference between literal accuracy and emotional truth. To Apply: Please provide a brief example of literary or creative work you have translated or edited.
