Multilingual Book Translation Project
Budget: $8 – $15 USD
I have a 25,000-word nonfiction manuscript, “The Crisis of Human Knowledge,” ready for publication and now need it rendered faithfully into five additional languages. After reviewing the sample chapter at https://livezenlife.com/the-crisis-of-human-knowledge/ you will have a clear sense of the tone, academic references, and conversational flow I’d like preserved.
Selected target languages
• Tamil
• Telugu
• Malayalam
• French
• German
Deliverables (one set per language)
1. Final, publication-ready translation in editable Word format
2. A clean PDF reflecting final layout and pagination
3. A brief notes file highlighting any phrases that required contextual interpretation
Quality is paramount: consistency in terminology, respect for footnotes and citations, and a voice that reads naturally to native speakers. Please base your per-word quote on the full 25,000 words; we can agree on milestone splits once we proceed.
Kindly refrain from translating the sample text until we formalize our collaboration. I look forward to reading your proposal and, ideally, working together to bring this book to new audiences.
