Re: Korean Translation

Dear Justin,
I don't know why I'm getting this e-mail. I am an ATA (Americam Translators
Association) member for interpreting and translating commercial
English<>Spanish. I am sorry if you were misinformed. Let me know if I can
be of any help in the above languages. You can check at www.atanet.org for
possible help.
Best regards, Carlos

Subject: [trans] Korean Translation

I'm Justin, I sent mail yesterday from DSME.co.kr, for the purposes of
your list, I'll use this email instead. My wife is Korean and I have
lived here for four years and am thus fluent (I work as a programmer
to boot). I'll get this knocked out by the end of this week.

I've attached my current working copy, if, in the future you want only
a revised completed one, please let me know. I'm just filling it out
as fast as I can but reached the point to where I need to get to bed.

I thought the changes qualified as extensive so I attached the whole
thing, Also, after a couple loose translations(where a direct one
would make no sense), I reworded it into the new literal english after
writing the new Korean phrase and prepended the notes with "#?". That
way you can let me know if I should revise.

Also, I made changes to previous entries someone else did.

lastly I suggest that, even though it is given as a on the translation
help page to use the non-english lone word in cases where a native
word exists, This may not be a wise approach with Korean. Often times,
using a native Korean word makes it sound as if one is from North
Korea....and will spark laughter.  So I may change things like "host"
later....
