Hello, I am looking for someone for a long term project (5-10 hours weekly for several months). Please only apply if you are a native speaker (or close to it)- also, if you only want to do this one file and are not interested in more- please don't apply. I have some automatically generated content (gt translate from content in English). I need someone to proofread it and edit it, removing all the errors while doing so, but also fixing other issues, making the text more readable/nicer, fixing translation errors and so on. If something doesn't make sense, I would want you to edit it (based on the context) so it would make sense. The goal is to have the final text (after you do your part) look like a native speaker wrote it (so that a random reader wouldn't look at the text and say "this looks like something a machine would create"). If something doesn't make sense, check what the context is- feel free to make changes to improve how the text looks even if it would alter the meaning of the text. The general topic of the article is what does it mean to dream of a house. As already mentioned in the first paragraph, I would have plenty of these if this first file is done properly- there would probably be around 600,000 words (~300 articles of 2,000 words on average), potentially even more. To see who would be the right candidate for this job, I have one file attached below. I would need you to edit it according to the instructions above (I can also provide you with the original file if needed, but would like it more if you could make sense of the context without it). Then, if everything is ok, we would provide you with the offer for long term work. The context of this article (and all future ones) is as you can probably already tell- about "what does it mean to dream of a house" (gt might have used word "desire" instead of "dreaming", please have that in mind). The file that needs to be proofread is "ES HOUSE" (the source file is just "English house") While proofreading the file, please pay attention to how much time did you roughly need (average from the current freelancers working on it is 40-60 minutes). Also, I would very much appreciate if you would, in your bid for the project, write what would be your expected hourly rate for this type of work. In general- the more edits, the better. If you have any questions- feel free to ask. Have a nice day, Tomislav Jelic

Hi Tomislav. I’m Ana, I already propose to your another research. Like I told you, I’m Argentinian and native Spanish speaker. Also, I have knowledges in English because I studied for 4 years. So, I’m sure I’ll be able to help you with this. The fact of speak a fluently Spanish will guarantee you that the texts will have a correct form, as you want to. I’ll translate every sentence by myself without any translator, choosing the words and expression depending the context, that’s very important for the text to sound natural and fluent. I’m here again because I’m really interested in what you are looking for, I’m really think that I can do it. I know I don’t have any recommendations here, but also, I read that you trust in students and don’t need experience. So, here I am trying to work with you. In the text you gave us to correct, I found a lot of little mistakes, how I am Spanish speaker, I will detect all of this mistakes and will be able to correct to the perfect way. I will really appreciate if you choose me. In fact, I trying to make of this my only job, so I can start right now and can work for 6/8 per day. For hour I will expect 7usd, I’m starting so I know that’s a good price for both of us. Thanks a lot. Ana

Hi! My name is Kevin, I write to apply for this project. I believe I am the ideal candidate, first of all because Spanish is my native language but also because I have made this kind of works before. After finishing my studies in Political Science, I have been working proofreading and editing thesis of colleagues. I pay close attention to grammar, so I can guarantee that I can notice any error. While I was reading the text you shared, I found out that most of the mistakes were a confusion between formal and informal mode. I would change it so it would respect one sense. I also found some other phrases that did not sound well. I look forward to hearing from you. I am organized, responsible and I work hard. Hope you consider me. Thank you, Kevin

I´ve already done the proofreading in about 45min (i can´t uploaded here). There is a thing i want to remark. The text its constantly switching between formal and unformal form of dialogue. I can correct that as you indicate. I´m full on board about the long term work and any doubt you can posibly have about me and my person don´t mind asking,

Hello, my name is Juan and I am from Argentina. I have been translating books into formal Spanish within the University of the Argentine Federal Police since 2016. Regarding this article, I can observe some common errors conjugating or even redundancy, for example, in the Spanish file. it says "dream with dream", also we don't say "insufficiently built" or its translation doesn't match a native language. another example the expression "i long" in Spanish can be used as an adjective to desire. Many errors can be corrected, conjugate well and show a Spanish from Latin America or Spain. I am new to the site and I promise to do some excellent work for you so that we are both satisfied. My price is low since I have not done any work outside of my usual job. My best regards.

Hello, I hope you are having a good day! I am originally from Mexico but I am fluent in both languages, I have been living in the United States for two years now since I am in college, I have worked before in small translation projects for different purposes, I am sure that we can work together with whatever you need to translate or in this case correct so that it is as appropriate as possible to the language. I also have availability of schedule, I could start working today.

Hi! Tomislav, what a nice and eye- catching article you have there. "'What it means to dream of a house'' is a great article which i will love to read over and over again and please, do not change the word 'dream' to 'desire' because in my opinion 'dream' align perfectly with the headline to hookup the readers. I am a Proofreader as well as Editor. I have skills in Proofreading, Editing, Copywriting, Microsoft word and Excel with good translation skills. I understand and can read a bit of Spanish language, as well translate with the help of my team of Translators here. I love to help writers, business,individuals to perfect their works through proofreading and editing, be it articles, business write-ups, novels, etc, but are not limited to these only. To proofread and edit, removing all the errors while doing so, but also fixing other issues, making the text more readable/nicer, fixing translation errors and so on, is what i love to do. I would love to work with you on long time basis As you've requested, I have proofread and edited the ATTACHMENT you have provided and I would love to submit it personally to you for review in my message box Looking forward to your message. Helen.
