What a Free Translation Will Get YouEvery once in a while I will get a request for what amounts to a free translation, English to Spanish. For example, just last week someone emailed me saying that they needed a translator and were willing to pay between $0.005 and $0.01 a word.Are you kidding me? It's amazing that people think it's totally normal to pay a translator a half cent per word to translate a document that I presume they feel is important, or at least important enough to be translated. For that price, it wouldn't even be worth it for me to plug the text into a free online translation search tool and give the client that translation! So I thought it was pretty funny when just a couple of days later someone passed me a link to a Youtube video, which shows what happens when you rely on free translation (or in this case, interpretation) to get you through your next globalization project. Don't let this happen to you! Return from Free Translation English to Spanish to Language Videos. |
