You have a fairly good price there for a competent translator. You get what you pay for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Up2U Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 Do you need a legal translation? In other words, are you translating from English (or other foreign language) to Thai for presentation to a Government Department. If so, you need to make sure your translator is registered for this purpose. And will not be cheap. If you just want to do something for your girl-friend, or whoever, then there is a good free access website run by NECTEC called 'Parsit' which I use most days. Takes time, but my wife tells me she understands what I send. (Only from English to Thai). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singa-traz Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 0.03 (Euro) per word is quite cheap, for a professional work. Cheaper ? For such as small job ... drop the professional word ... For translator, have alook here: http://proz.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kian Gwan Building 2- 11th floor.Email - [email protected] - I had 2 docs. translated for 1600 TBH last time and are legal. and he did them for me while I waited as I was on my way to immigration. Hope this is what you needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weary Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 Like Dr. Pat Pong said, you definitely get what you pay for. There's no such thing as a free lunch (or translation). Spend the extra money and go for quality, or you may be in trouble, especially when it comes to important documents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joinme2leave Posted June 9, 2004 Author Share Posted June 9, 2004 thx for your comments folks! so i guess i had a good deal but still open to hear recommendations. by-the-way, the translation letter (simple written english into thai, sent to g/f) was done by: www.buy-thai.net and they were offering a special 50% discount. that maybe explains the cheap service. if it was good translation or not: well, i might never ever know, right?
