German Book Translation Review
Budget: $15 – $25 USD
I have a complete German draft of an English-language book on Depression waiting for a native eye. The manuscript sits as a Word/PDF file, so you can work directly in Track Changes or leave margin comments—whatever keeps the revision process clear.
Please read the entire document from cover to cover and mark every sentence, phrase, or idiom that feels odd, unidiomatic, or grammatically shaky. I care most about grammar, syntax, and above all a natural flow that lets German readers forget the text was ever translated. If a cultural reference could land better in German, note that too.
Deliverables
• One annotated file (Word comments or similar) flagging all awkward or incorrect wording.
• A short summary of recurring issues you noticed so I can improve future chapters.
Once your notes come in, I’ll revise and may ask one quick follow-up pass to confirm the fixes. That’s it—just a sharp, fluent read-through to make this translation sing like original German prose.
