Chinese Tourism Article Translation Review
Budget: $15 – $25 USD
I have a mixed-purpose travel article that blends destination highlights, cultural anecdotes and personal opinions, and I need it rendered into Chinese in a lively, casual voice. The text is already drafted in English; what I’m looking for now is a translator who can both translate and critically review the copy so it feels authentic to a Chinese-speaking audience that reads a lot of travel blogs and social platforms.
Beyond faithful meaning, I want you to keep an eye on culturally specific references, idioms and any place names that might need localisation. If something sounds stiff or overly literal, feel free to reshape it—as long as the sense and spirit stay intact. Please flag any passages where nuance could get lost or where a tourist might misunderstand local etiquette.
Deliverables
• Polished Chinese version in a friendly, informal tone
• Inline or side comments explaining key adaptation choices or suggested tweaks (nothing exhaustive—just enough for me to follow your reasoning)
I’ll provide the Word document the moment we start; you can return the revised file with Track Changes or an equivalent feature so I can see every adjustment.
