Hello,
I am an Italian journalist with over 30 years experience in translations to and from English; I have translated lots of documents, articles and books on the most various subjects (history, science, music, sport) and can assure you about a quality human translation, whose focus will be on the ‘meaning’ of the text. I will of course also provide final proofreading in order to check the consistency of the final product. In case of any question do not hesitate to send a PM, I will reply soon as possible, please consider that my time zone is CET +1. As for your questions:
TRANSLATION: my language pairs that I can translate are Italian-English , I usually can translate 1000 words per hour and 4000 per day, but it depends on the subject; my rate per word is 0,01 E per word.
TRANSCRIPTION: It takes me usually 6 hours to transcribe either in Italian and in English, I can transcribe 2 hours per day, my rate per 1 hour recording is 40E.
