Is there anyone here that could translate a letter from Italian to English for me? It's about 150 words. I'm happy to pay, but I'm wary of going somewhere live Fiverr because I want a human translation and I doubt I'd be able to tell if someone used an AI. Boosts welcome. Edit: I've got some offers of help, so I should be good. Thank you to everyone that replied and/or boosted 😀 #translation #italian

@rpbook@gts.phillipsuk.org I can do it, no problem, but it depends on the level of precision needed. Is it an official thing, or technical thing, or "just" a normal letter?

@rpbook@gts.phillipsuk.org If you're worried about the results, you could use AI to get the first-order English version, then pay an appropriately skilled human to BACKTRANSLATE that and proof it.

@rpbook@gts.phillipsuk.org sorry, best I can do is read it as Mario, but specifically the version of him from the Super Mario Super Show where he was an Italian American plumber from Brooklyn voiced by wrestler Lou Albano. Alternately Luigi.
