I have a set of business-oriented messages written in English that must be rendered into Tagalog while keeping selected portions in English for that natural Taglish flow Filipino professionals use every day. Above all, I need linguistic accuracy: figures of speech, industry terms, and any contractual wording have to survive the jump from one language to the other intact and unambiguous.
The material will be read by local partners and internal stakeholders, so it should feel effortless to them—smoothly switching between Tagalog and English where it sounds most natural, never forced or overly formal. Think of how we normally write e-mails or chat updates in Manila offices: straightforward, respectful, but not stiff.
Source files arrive as Word docs (about 2,500 words total). Return the translations in the same format, preserving headings and basic layout. A quick note explaining any tricky choices or culture-specific tweaks you made will be appreciated; it helps me justify wording decisions to the team.
If this first batch goes well I’ll have follow-up projects of similar scope, so a concise turnaround and consistent voice will set us up for long-term work together.
