Modern Arabic Translation: Art & Legislation
Budget: $8 – $15 USD
I have a collection of artwork-related texts and a set of legislative documents that must be rendered from English into flawless Modern Standard Arabic. The material will appear in a professional publication, so tone, terminology and consistency are critical. I will supply the source files in Word and PDF; I expect a clean, publication-ready Arabic version along with a bilingual file that lets my editorial team cross-check every paragraph.
You should be completely comfortable working in Modern Standard Arabic, able to preserve legal nuance alongside the creative flair of the art commentary, and willing to clarify subtle points with me over chat when needed. Experience with CAT tools such as SDL Trados, MemoQ or Wordfast is welcome because it helps maintain uniform terminology across chapters, but I’m open to any workflow that guarantees accuracy.
Deliverables
• Final Arabic text, fully proof-read and formatted for print
• Side-by-side bilingual file (docx or xliff) for internal review
• Terminology list for key legal and artistic terms
I’ll review the first section as a sample; once approved, you can proceed with the remainder. Let me know your turnaround time and any questions you have about the source material.
