Rates: Charges are calculated based on the total number of words in the source language and vary according to the complexity of the text, its formatting and the timescale. As at 11 March 2010 rates start from £75 per 1000 German words and translations of less than 600 words attract a minimum charge. Weekend work attracts a premium of 25% but may be undertaken with adequate notice.
On average, I expect to translate 2000 French or German words daily. Of course, plain text will be slightly quicker and a "for-publication" text which the client has taken a considerable time to polish into a certain format will similarly take me longer too. However, I use powerful .pdf conversion software that can not only preserve your formatting to a large extent, but also copes very successfully with French and German, so this keeps the formatting I have to do to a minimum. This sort of formatting is charged at £20/hr.
Please contact me for a free estimate, and send the text you require.
If you are wondering why you are not using a free online translation tool instead of paying a human translator, you might like to follow this hyperlink: http://translate.google.com/translate_t?hl=en# . Simply copy and paste your French or German text into the Google translator and set it to produce a translation in English. You will soon see that the free version allows you to obtain the gist of your document, but is far from being a smooth polished translation that would look well published alongside the rest of your public information. |
