Adaptation of European French app strings into Canadian French

One of our clients, a leading note-taking app, is looking to expand its reach to French-speaking Canadian users by adapting the existing European French localization. We are looking for a reliable English to Canadian French translator familiar with European French.

For consistency, the client would like to ensure that the new Canadian French version maintains the tone, style, and meaning of the existing European French content, while making necessary adjustments for regional differences. So your job will be to provide a Canadian French version of app’s content using the European French version as reference. Of course, the original English source texts will also be available. This job will be billed on an hourly basis.

In case of a successful collaboration, you will also take care of the continuous app updates going forward, translating from English into Canadian French (billed per word).
