Dear Qualified Translator,
Freelancer
For our fashion watch company we are looking for a translator
who is great at translating English text to Italian. Preferably a
native Italian speaker with a strong background in English.
______________________________________________________________________
Job Description
The text to translate is part of a small booklet with instructions
on how to use our watch. It also includes information about
the warranty, return policy, water resistance etc.
The text is not very technical as it is for an uncomplicated
fashion watch. There are however some important words that
require proper translation regarding the usage of the buckle
and a few more things.
______________________________________________________________________
Work Time & Word Count
The total word count = 797 words
I estimate that it will take you approximately 1-3 hours maximum.
______________________________________________________________________
Timeline
The deadline for this project is this Thursday 29 October 2016.
______________________________________________________________________
Future Projects
This is a small project. In the following months there will be
ongoing projects related to the translation of the website from
English to Italian.
______________________________________________________________________
Attachments
1. An example of the booklet
2. The complete text to be translated from English to Italian
______________________________________________________________________
Translation Document
Once we have an agreement I will send you the complete
draft booklet (as you may need to see the pictures).
I will also send you a neatly organised excel sheet. This sheet
has the original English text in it. To make it easy for you to input
your translation it is set up in blocks that correlate exactly with the
English text of the booklet.

If you are interested in this project and the future (website)
translation projects, then please send me a message.
> Can you please include your suggested fee for the complete
translation?
It will be helpful if you state your fee per word, per hour and/or
per this project.
Look forward to your reply,
Christopher
ps. A note on translators relying heavily on Google Translate:
In the past we have found that translators use Google
Translate often literally. This will not be tolerated. A native
of the language in question will review the work every time
to check the quality of the translation work. Thank you for
understanding.
