  • Very short (less than 100 words) or complicated texts may cost more than the advertised price per word.

  • The price depends on the quality of the original language, the length of the text, the subject matter, and the deadline.

  • References and figures are usually excluded from the word count; however, please include them as these data facilitate the translation/revision of the text.

  • Mention that you need an official invoice (nota fiscal) when you request a quote.

  • Editing or translation of a manuscript is normally completed in about a week. Faster turnaround is usually available at a 25% higher cost.

  • Payment through PIX, bank transfer, or PayPal is expected before the final version of the manuscript is sent unless arrangements are made when the quote is accepted.

  • A certificate attesting to the edit or translation is always provided to certify that a native English-speaking professional editor reviewed the manuscript.

  • Your information, data, and manuscript remain confidential and are never shared.

  • Please send files in MS Word, as track changes are always used to show edits.

  • If the manuscript to be edited was originally written in Portuguese and translated, please send the Portuguese version to assist with the English revision.

  • Please include the list of references, the figures, and the tables, as they help to understand the article for a better translation or revision.

  • Papers will be edited or translated into American English (US) except when the author indicates another form of English is required.

  • Verify technical, field-specific words before submitting for English review. For translations, verify the technical words after the translation.

  • My services are guaranteed - if the article is rejected because of English, I will do another edit free of charge.

  • If the journal asks for additions to the manuscript, I will re-edit the article at a discounted rate that considers only the new text.
