Anno, literary editing of a translation for publishing is not just proofreading for spelling. The main risk here is different: translators often distort the author's intonation, resulting in a book that is grammatically correct but "not quite right." It is necessary to align the language to an established publishing standard without drowning out the original voice.
What I will do essentially:
— I will go through the text in two rounds: first for rhythm and naturalness of phrases, then for style and language purity — this way, corrections do not overlap.
— I will straighten out calques from English that are almost guaranteed to be present in the translation of "The Connected Child": from unnecessary passive constructions to awkward metaphors.
— I will prepare a list of my edits with brief justifications — you will see not just "I changed this," but why this is better for the Ukrainian edition.
⚙️ A nuance that is often overlooked: before the final editing, it is worth agreeing with you on the list of terms and addresses (how to translate key concepts of the book), so that we do not have to redo half the text due to one unfortunate lexeme.
I work through Safe and in stages: first, I take one chapter, edit it, you review it — and only after agreeing on the style do we move forward. To start, I will need the translation file in Word format and, if available, a glossary of terms from the translator.
How many pages are approximately in the book, and are there already any comments from the publisher on specific sections?
