As a native Greek Speaker with excellent command of the English Language, I can deliver a work that will exceed your expectations.
Translation can be rather tricky if you consider that a lot can be lost in the language transition.
I have a double major in English and Teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) and a Certificate in Proofreading and Publishing. Additionally, I hold Certificates of Proficiency in English from the Universities of Cambridge (CPE) and Michigan (ECPE).
You will receive a highly comprehensive translation without using any software programs.
Novels
Any type of literature translation necessitates extensive information gained through years of practice and a unique approach to each work.
Knowledge of translation techniques is crucial, but so is the ability to maintain the style of the translated work, correctly transmit a notion, and identify the most appropriate analogies for metaphors and catchphrases without distorting the original text.
For literary works, the document you’ll receive won’t be just a simple word-for-word translation but a fully translated and edited book.
Rates: start from $0.015/word
Official Documents & Rates
Following the EU criteria, “public documents (for example, a birth certificate, a marriage notarial act, a judgment) and their certified copies issued by the authorities of an EU country must be accepted as authentic by the authorities of another EU country without the need of an authenticity stamp (i.e., the apostille).” Therefore, the translated documents and certificates don’t have to be notarized in order to be used by public bureaus and services.
Prices are indicative. Contact me with the document you want to be translated for a quote.
The turnaround time for simple, three pages maximum, documents is usually two days. Contact me for availability.

Notes:
- For literary works, I don’t edit or beta works that I wouldn’t pick as a reader. I work primarily on fiction, namely: romance (clean and erotic), fantasy (high and low), and mystery novels. Genres I don’t work on: Dystopia, (Post) Apocalyptic, satire, religion, politics, philosophy, and anything that’s got to do with theories about COVID.However, since each book is unique, feel free to fill in the contact form to discuss your project.
- I don’t offer sample edits for translation projects.
- Presently, I don’t accept literary works of less than 10.000 words.
- The rates mentioned above don’t apply to works that have been translated by an online translator (machine).
- Due to my heavy schedule, I’d suggest contacting me before you finish writing your novel to discuss availability.
- All projects are completed with MS Word, utilizing the Track Changes feature. However, for official documents, I accept pictures, pdf and some other formats provided the details can be easily distinguished.
- Payments: All payments are processed through PayPal. Full payment is required before delivering the final translation. There will be no refunds.
- A rush fee (10%) might be added if you want your document to be translated within a strict timeline.
- All prices are in US Dollars.
