Translation

Project details

What we need
  • Specific copy from one document (up to 1000 words) translated from one language to one other of the Organization's choice
  • Note: If you need more than 1000 words translated or copy translated into more than one language, please post additional versions of this project
Additional details

We are looking for someone to help the Mark Twain House & Museum in Hartford Connecticut to translate a version of our Guided Tour in English into Polish.

What we have in place
  • We currently have the english version in a word document, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have the knowledge and understanding of the Iconic Mark Twain, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $7,098 , allowing us to continue to research the Iconic Mark Twain.

The Mark Twain House & Museum is a popular attraction to tourists from all over the world. We provide guided tours to those who come to visit but do not have the ability to provide tours in other languages. We do provide written translations of what our Interpreters are talking about to about 10,000 visitors a year. These translations will provide those that don't speak English learn about Mark Twain, his family, and his Hartford Home.
