Proofreading and editing translations of the folk poetry

$30-250 USD

Completed
Posted over 7 years ago

$30-250 USD

Paid on delivery
The texts are about 3500 words long. Because it's a poetry the rules of English were bent quite a lot in attempt to keep the meter and rhymes. I'm looking for an editor who appreciates the anastrophe style (f.e. the germanic adverb-verb-subject, or french noun-adjective word orders were heavily used, as well as articles were misused/sacrificed to keep the meter), nevertheless, catches totally unintelligible constructs, and, of course, typos and punctuation mistakes.
