Hi, Im poor as a rat these days, so I thought it would be a good idea to ask for translation work. Could you please check my cover letter? I really need it to be perfect or else I won't get the job... I know there must be a few mistakes but frankly I don't known better. Thanks in advance for your help. It means a lot to me.
Re: vendor specialized in poker
Dear Poker translations company,
I am XYZ, freelance translator specialized in games (specially poker) and localization. Im offering my services as a translator (EN/FR>ES) and proofreader.
I've been playing poker for the last 6 years and know poker jargon very well. I'm really passionate about it, I have read like 40 books on the subject and I even made a terminology paper with Spanish, French and English versions of the jargon.
I have finished a master's degree in localization so I am also specialized in software and game localization. Curiously enough, I m also of maltese origin as you may have concluded from my surname.
Attached you will find my resumé. I look forward to hearing from you.
XYZ
Thanks very much again!
