Formal Spanish Story Translation -- 2
Budget: $2 – $8 AUD
I need a Spanish short story rendered into polished, academic-level English and delivered as an editable Word document. The original narrative is already typed; I will send you the file as soon as we start. Please keep the tone unmistakably formal because the translation will be used in an educational setting and may end up as model text for students.
You do not have to worry about preserving field-specific jargon—there is none—but every nuance, cultural reference, and stylistic flourish still needs to come through clearly and naturally for an English-speaking reader. Feel free to adjust sentence structure where that serves clarity, yet stay faithful to the author’s intent and voice.
Deliverables – once you’re ready, I’ll look for:
• A .docx file mirroring the original layout (titles, paragraphs, and any italics or bold).
• Smooth, idiomatic English at a consistent formal register.
• A brief translator’s note (4–5 lines) explaining any unavoidable localization choices or ambiguities.
If you usually rely on tools such as Trados, MemoQ, or even CAT-assisted QA checks, that’s great—just make sure the final pass is human-edited. Turnaround time is flexible within a few days; let me know your realistic estimate when you place your bid.
