French Translation Of Romanian Ebooks
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
I have five Romanian-language ebooks, each running about 300 pages (roughly 300 words per page). They weave philosophical threads through a primarily social narrative, and I want the French versions to read as if they were penned in a bygone era—think classical, highly literate French rather than contemporary conversational prose.
Because nuance is everything here, I’m looking for a translator who not only handles Romanian-to-French fluently but also holds advanced academic training in French literature. Your background should allow you to carry over the subtle philosophical ideas while foregrounding the social focus in a tone that feels authentically old-style and polished.
Scope of work
• Translate all five manuscripts in full, preserving meaning, rhythm, and the slightly archaic register.
• Proofread and self-edit so that the final text is press-ready—no placeholders or machine-translation artifacts.
• Deliver each completed ebook in both editable Word (.docx) and print-ready PDF.
Acceptance criteria
• Faithful rendering of concepts, especially where philosophical reasoning meets social commentary.
• Consistent, deliberately formal register throughout.
• Zero untranslated fragments; no loss of context or cultural references.
If you have published literary translations or hold a degree in French literature, please mention this and, if possible, attach a short sample of similar work. I’m ready to begin as soon as I find the right fit and will review submissions on a first-come basis.
