You're receiving these because you signed up for the translate list at

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....
