A humanities research paper of roughly 23,000 words is ready in Arabic and now needs to appear in fluent, publication-ready English. I need each section—abstract, main text, footnotes, and bibliography—translated with great care so the scholarly tone, terminology, and citation formatting stay intact.

Experience with academic writing in the humanities and a solid grasp of both Modern Standard Arabic and academic English conventions are essential; literal word-for-word conversion will not be enough. Please retain headings, citation styles, and any embedded quotes while conveying nuanced arguments clearly for an international readership.

Deliverables
• Complete English manuscript in the original Word layout
• A tracked-changes file so I can see every choice you made
• Final clean copy ready for peer review

Acceptance criteria
– Faithful rendering of meaning without omissions or additions
– Smooth, idiomatic academic English free of machine-translation artifacts
– Consistent terminology and correct citation formatting throughout

If you have handled Arabic-to-English research translations before, especially in literature, philosophy, or cultural studies, your portfolio examples will help me gauge fit. Let me know your estimated turnaround time and any questions about the text’s structure or references so we can move forward quickly.
