[QUOTE="Blurt, post: 828778, member: 648"] I'm at ease in either direction, being familiar with equivalent idioms in both languages. I used to charge $0.25/word ($0.27 for emergency translations); that came to about $350 for a 45-minute contract. It was a lucrative occupation. I once had to translate a 60-page political party platform document within 24 hours.. Didn't get much sleep, but the pay was a whopper. I don't miss the work, though. It was just too much. I quit when I had to start sub-contracting. Farming stuff out was more stressful than it was worth. Still, I'm glad I went through the experience. A feather in my cap, so to speak. [/QUOTE]
