Translator Resources

Despite the diverse geographical locations from which our translators work, 84000 is passionate about creating a community for these skilled and generous individuals.

We are currently piloting an online translators’ community that offers some unique features and tools, including a cumulative glossary, translation memory files that allow translators to see what others are doing in their translations, and a discussion forum. This private site, also includes sections for our editors and copyeditors, and is built to maximize collaborative effort.

If you translate for 84000 and would like to receive a password please contact us at editorial@84000.co. Once you have a login follow this link to access 84000 Translator Tools.
