Time does matter FD ..Because it is better to know that your soulmate is cheating as soon as he/she do it because this might make the pain less than knowing that he/she had been cheating for a lonnnnnnnng time.
 I will translate YES. not that I am a homebreaker or something , but becuase I hate to see someone struggeling for not knowing. |

Oh well, I suppose I must reconsider my own opinion on that matter then. I guess that what shocks me is not so much telling or not someone that she/he's being cheated upon, as translating texts that were not intended for the person, and not knowing in what circumstances the person got hold of them.
But I agree that it depends on the content, the context, etc.

Yes I would do. Because their relationship doesn't matter to my translations.
But I'm afraid if I translated incorrectly, it possibly affects everything they have, whichever cheating or not cheating matter. I think you're afraid of this, too. |

hemmm, I'm afraid, that those who ask for such translations usually ask you, to to send their texts by e-mail or pm. Though, the one thing I was wondering about, is how they get to these messages... (usually e-mails).

Joe Gold is right, most of the time people come out with instant messages or emails in a language they don't know... and ask for a translation. Let's say people don't know exactly what's going on in written stories but they may doubt about it.
To sum up the whole thing, most of you would translate, which makes me happy finally... although it depends on the context and the possible "roughness" of the text. to all translators, remember you are always free to translate or not |
