Hello folks!
I am an undergraduate student in English Language Teaching. And I am quite interested in translating something from English to Turkish or vice versa. While enjoying translating, I really would like to gain some sort of experience or money. Is there a chance for me to gain money on this or any other platform? I really will be waiting for your advices!

Hi, Enes. You can check job ads or write to translation agencies here. Another effective method is reaching out to translation agencies. You can find translation agencies on Google and visit their websites. You will see that nearly all of them have a page for job application. After you fill the form, most will write back to you and send a trial project. I recommend a keeping a list so that you don't get confused, as there are dozens of agencies, also focusing on Turkish agencies would be better because they are more likely to send you projects.
If you have any other question, feel free ask.

Hi, Ebrahim. Pleased to meet you too. Have you ever considered being an Arabic-Turkish interpreter? As far as I know, there has been an increasing demand for it.

Hi, Ana! Nice to have a polyglot like you here. By the way, is Catalan closer to French or Spanish?

Hello! That's a very interesting question. As a Spaniard, I think Catalan is more similar to Spanish, since I am used to hearing both languages and I see more similarities with my language than with French.
However, it is interesting to think about this question. It could be said that in some aspects Catalan is more similar to French, obviously because of the evolution of the Romance languages and the powerful influence of French, such as some verb roots (Mengar / Manger - in Spanish Comer). On the contrary, it has nothing to do with the pronunciation of French, it is even complicated for a Frenchman and a Catalan to understand each other!
I hope that my little reflection has been useful :)

Thank you for your answer! One of my Spanish teachers at the university was Catalan, and once she said she could understand French even though she did not know it. Then I guess both Catalan and Spanish help her.

Hi, Gloria. Why don't you do legal translations anymore? I think it is more fun than technical translation.
