Any German ?

[virginie]

I'm looking for someone who speaks German, preferably a native speaker. I'd like him/her to translante a video... so that I could add the subtitles, or at least understand what is said. It'd be very useful for something I'm working on right now.
I used to speak German a little bit, but it's way too difficult for me to undertsand what is said. I could ask to my father, but I'm not sure he'd enjoy doing it.


If no one here speaks German, maybe one of you has the English version of the Biography about Tom ? It's about 40 minutes long.

Hi Virginie!

Am pretty new to this site after surfing tomhanksonline quite a few months.

I'm a native German speaker and a huge Tom fan. So maybe I can help you?

Hi Jen !

Well, first of all, welcome !!
If you want, you can introduce yourself here.


Thank you for volunteering.
So here is what it's about : I have the 40-minute documentary Biography about Tom Hanks, except it's dubbed in German. Do you think you'd have time to transcript and then translate what is said in the video ? It will certainly take quite a lot of time but we could try to add subtitles afterwards.

Let me know if you want so that I can send you the videos. You can try first, and let us know if it's okay to go on, or if it's too much work.

Hey again!

Well, first of all I wanna say thanks. Just made my introduction.

Well, usually my studies take a lot of time, but at the moment I'm on vacation. Am not sure if I could finish it in that time, but even after my classes I'll be able to translate it and write it down. Maybe it will take October, would that be okay?

Don't worry for that, take your time. No hurry.

I'll send you a PM with the links to download the videos. Do you know Megaupload ?

Hey Virginie!

Sorry for being offline for a few days, a friend needed help 'cause she's moving to another city, so I wasn't able to come online.

Of course I know megaupload, don't worry. Will download it now so that I can start my mission soon.
