Part one of this post:
How would you translate action statement into German? I know, I should ask this question in a forum full of German native speakers, but I have and the result was, to put it mildly, unsatisfactory.
So here's part two of this post:
Do you know any web sites (forums) that offer good translation advice? My favourite so far is TT, but I don't want to become a nuisance - or more so than I already am - by posting stupid translation questions all the time.
And part three:
It's ridiculous. Neither English nor German are really my native language, but I find myself unwittingly in a translator position. Client pays and won't listen to reason (the original translator is family somehow, whatever).
So I'm thinking about outsourcing the translation bit. Don't know how much of it will come my way. Cannot pay loads. But what I can do is recommend whoever wants to give it a try. If I'm happy with the translations and the deadline-keeping, I'll spread the word. So maybe if you're just starting out at the translation thing, you might want to drop me a pm. I'll send you some sample text, you give me a quote, we take it from there.
