Hi Maxspeed, many thanks for supporting us. We would like to 'localize' our sales materials. This means, we are looking for people who have fun creating sales letters, FAQ, ads, etc. We understand that a lot of English language learners would like to purchase useful products and materials. That's why we want to describe our products in various languages -- not just in English. As of now, we would like to 'localize' our Worksheet pages. We add new materials and products constantly so we are looking for people who want to work with us long term.

Let me know what you think.
Thanks
Torsten

Hi Torsten,

Thanks for your reply. I can translate into Serbian (very similar is Montenegrin), so if you are interested in this corner of the world, we can work together.
But, I'm not quite sure about the text, when I click on the link named worksheet, I get to the text beginning like this:

In a few minutes you'll be able to start practicing and testing your English in both an effective and pleasant way. You will experience a new and exciting method of increasing your word power and refining your grammar. With this product you will be able to delve into the depths of the English language and explore its diversity and richness... and so on.

Is it the text that should be translated?
As for your question regarding creating texts, I'm willing to try.

Best regards,
Snezana

Hi Snezana, the text you see when you click on "Worksheets" is a 'sales copy'. Are you familiar with this type of text? What kind of texts do you usually translate? Also, do you know the difference between 'localizing' and 'translating'.

Let me know what you think,

Regards
Torsten

Hello Torsten,
I discovered this website just recently and read your post in search of translators. Well, here I am Very Happy! I usually translate from English into Italian and I'd be very keen on helping out to translate material on languages. I also read that you are aiming at localizing parts of the web site and I'd like to help out here too.

Regards,

Hi Ophelies,

Many thanks for joining our forum. It's good to have an English/Italian translator on board. What type of texts do you prefer translating -- technical, fiction, guides/manuals, sales and marketing materials....?

Talk to you soon,
Grazie

Torsten

Hi, a special thanks to Conchita, Mba, Herc, Maxspeed and Diego for helping us create 'localized' versions of our worksheet pages. You've done an excellent job and here are your pages:

http://www.english-test.net/pdf-worksheets/english-tests-for-turkish-speakers.html
http://www.english-test.net/pdf-worksheets/english-tests-for-arabic-speakers.html

Please, let us know if there is anything we should change.

Poka,

Hello Torsten and Slava, regarding the Spanish version I've found some things to correct:

. "Precio" instead of "Price"
. ... "productos en un paquete m?s un..." instead of "productosen un paquete m?s un..." (there is a space missing between "productos" and "en")
. "Fotocopiable" instead of "Photocopiable"

Regards
