\"My<\/a>
My English translation content writing process<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

For a few months I have been getting translation projects from my content writing website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I wasn\u2019t actively seeking translation assignments.<\/p>\n

Someone from LinkedIn randomly contacted me that he would give me text in his local language. Then I could use Google Translate to make the rough translation and then refine it using my own writing.<\/p>\n

That was a fun project. It was very easy. The matter was there right in front of me. I just had to make it better. The client was quite happy.<\/p>\n

This encouraged me to create a dedicated section on my website offering my translation services<\/a>. Whatever is the language, if it exists on Google Translate, I can do the translation.<\/p>\n

In fact, translation work is easier than doing the regular content writing work because I don\u2019t need to do research. The matter is already there. I just need to rewrite it in better English.<\/p>\n

Below I am explaining my translation process.<\/p>\n

Get the list of the pages from the client that need to be translated<\/h2>\n

Sometimes the website in the native language is already live so I just need the URLs.<\/p>\n

When the website is not live, the client sends me the text files. I prefer plain text files in Unicode formatting so that the text can be easily used for translation.<\/p>\n

Even if the client is using a CMS, he or she gives me access to the dashboard and from there I get all the content I need to translate.<\/p>\n

Use Google Translate to get the rough translation<\/h2>\n
\"Using<\/a>
Using Google Translate for initial translation<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

You must be wondering, if the text can be translated using Google Translate, what\u2019s the need to hire my translation services?<\/p>\n

Translation isn\u2019t simply verbatim transition from one language into another. They\u2019re not simply words. These words and sentences have a meaning.<\/p>\n

The meaning is usually lost when you use mechanical translation. This is because, a mechanical translator like Google Translate cannot use emotions when rewriting the text in another language.<\/p>\n

Sales copy, for example, is all about emotions. When you\u2019re trying to sell from your website, do you really want to depend on a mechanical translator? No. You need convincing writing.<\/p>\n

This, is the reason why people hire me for my translation services.<\/p>\n

As a trained content writer and copywriter, I inject meaning into the words that I write.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t translate word by word. I use my own judgement. I use my own sentences. I decide which words to use and which ones to disregard.<\/p>\n

As a result, in many cases, what I write in English is much better than what was initially written in the native language.<\/p>\n

Once, the client rewrote his pages in the native language according to what I had translated in English.<\/p>\n

So, what do I do?<\/p>\n

Once I have received the list of the URLs, I visit the individual URL and copy\/paste the text into a text editor.<\/p>\n

Then, paragraph by paragraph, I start translating.<\/p>\n

I copy\/paste the paragraph into the Google Translate box, get the gist of what has been written, and then write it using my own style.<\/p>\n

Do I always understand what Google Translate has translated?<\/p>\n

No, sometimes I don\u2019t.<\/p>\n

Due to many nuances in the native language, sometimes what Google Translate has translated doesn\u2019t make sense.<\/p>\n

Then I approach the client and he or she does his or her best to explain to me what is being said and then I write it using proper language.<\/p>\n

In fact, I\u2019m liking the translation work so much (I\u2019m not saying I\u2019m getting a lot of it) that I may accept a greater number of translation assignments. The best thing is, the clients are quite happy with the translation work.<\/p>\n

It is a serendipitous turn of events.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
