Proofreading texts in English

We also proofread, revise, edit, and improve English texts translated by our customers from German, or passages written directly in English by non-native speakers.

The following few examples demonstrate the typical modifications we make to texts that are understandable. For simple corrections like spelling or punctuation, we usually recommend that you do it yourself using a good spell checker.

However, if we deem that the quality of the submitted text in English is too poor, we will request the German source text or suggest translating it from scratch. The latter is generally cheaper and better for you, the customer.

For our proofreading rates, please see fees.

The XXX custumer that is renting a car anywhere in Germany should know that he can express any wish (for example: his wife has birthday, he is renting a car in Hamburg and his wife is in Munich. He tells to the XXX employe to send flowers to his wife in Munich. The XXX employe calls the XXX Concierge Services, and they, themsell call for example the  Concierge that is in charge for Munich (responsable Concierges in all major cities have to be announced)and give him the address were the flowers have to be delievered at, the custumer s credit card number and the Concierge in Munich takes care of it.)

XXX customers renting cars in Germany should be aware that XXX also offers ancillary services. For instance, if a man rents a car in Hamburg and his wife in Munich has a birthday, he could request an XXX counter employee to have flowers sent to her. This employee contacts XXX Concierge Services, which forwards the request to the Munich branch (a list of concierges in all major cities should be handy), along with the delivery address and the customer’s credit card details. The Munich concierge handles the order and notifies the customer accordingly.
