Translation, Proofreading, Editing
Translation
Translation is not just a skill, it is also an exquisite art. It requires an excellent knowledge of the subtleties of languages. Whether from English into French, or from French into English, I always aim for a high-quality translation. Words are powerful, and it is extremely important to ensure that the original text is accurately translated. My translation services cover a wide range of topics: websites, blogs, ebooks, books, short stories, plays, films, documentaries, screenplays, reports, memos, press releases, essays and dissertation.
Proofreading
Proofreading involves the careful reading of an unfinalized document and is essential in conveying a message effectively. Every author knows that despite the spelling-checking abilities of modern word processors a human proofreader is indispensable.
For example, I will correct errors in: spelling, grammar, punctuation, capitalisation, typos, figure presentation…
Editing
Editing is a more in-depth service. I will correct formatting and spelling errors but also, re-arrange the text so that it becomes more coherent and concise.
