I have a collection of electrical engineering manuals written in English that introduce basic concepts and high-level overviews of equipment and processes. I need these texts rendered into clear, accurate Amharic while preserving every technical term, diagram caption, and safety notation. Because the material is introductory rather than calculation-heavy, the focus is on terminology consistency and readability for trainees who may be new to the field. A background in electrical engineering—or at least proven experience translating similar manuals—will help you judge when to keep original English abbreviations, when to add parenthetical explanations, and how to maintain the instructional tone. Files are supplied in editable Word and PDF. Please return an Amharic version in the same layout, ready for print or digital distribution. I will review a small sample first, then green-light the full batch once terminology and style are agreed upon.

Hello, I am a native Amharic speaker from Harar with ICT Level 4 training and strong experience in technical documentation and precise translation work. While I do not have an electrical engineering degree, my ICT background gives me a solid foundation for understanding technical terminology, and I am highly detail-oriented when it comes to consistency and accuracy. I understand your project requires: - Preserving technical terms and safety notations - Maintaining readability for trainees - Terminology consistency across the full batch - Matching the original layout for print/digital distribution I am comfortable working with Word and PDF files, following formatting guidelines strictly, and revising based on sample feedback before proceeding with the full batch. I can deliver clear, accurate Amharic translations that preserve the instructional tone. One question: Do you have a preferred glossary or list of standard Amharic technical terms you would like me to follow, or should I propose consistent translations and confirm them with you during the sample phase? I am available to start with the sample immediately and can commit 20 hours per week to this project. Best regards, Muluken
