Si eres nuevo subtitulando en español, te comparto una guía para buscar proyectos y otras cosas

Hola. Bienvenido a Viki. Al comienzo puede ser confuso, así fue para mí, pero luego se vuelve muy interesante y terminas conociendo gente de todo el mundo. Por eso quiero ayudar un poco y hacer tu comienzo más fácil. Escribí esta guía para principiantes de la forma que me gustaría haberla leído desde el comienzo, así que por favor léela para comenzar a encontrar equipos de español y aprender. Antes que nada (y lo repetí en el documento) te pido por favor, si te aceptan en un equipo NO ENTRES …

Hi, I can translate from English to Indonesia or Simplified Chinese. I can also translate from Korean to English or Indonesia

Hello everyone,
I’m an Arabic Translator eager to translate, if you need any help please do tell me.
P.S. I don’t have a Viki pass.

[abdallah_gabr_561]

I’m looking to subtitle English to Arabic and vice versa.
If there are any projects available please contact me.

Hola a los tres, les cuento que el sistema aquí en viki es traducir del idioma original al inglés y una vez completo y revisado se traduce del inglés a otros idiomas.
Tienen que ir a la página principal de viki, donde están las películas, buscar la sección “próximamente” y miran cuál equipo tiene moderador del idioma al que quieren traducir.
Entonces hacen click en ese moderador y les lleva a su perfil, le dan click al sobre y le envían un mensaje, el asunto deben colocar que son voluntarios para subtitular, y cual serie. Luego le escriben en el idioma al que quieren traducir, si es del inglés a un idioma como español, por ejemplo, le escriben en español, así se da una idea de su forma de escribir y ortografía.

I hope if you ever become a volunteer here that you listen to my words and do not write [ANYWAYS] in a subtitle here at RakutenViki.

ANYWAYS is a slang word, grammatically incorrect, and should not be view here at Rviki in an English subtitle. I beg you for the benefit of the viewers, please don’t use [anyways] in the future subtitles you may write here at this site. When I was a moderator anyone that wrote to me to be in my team and used anyways, would not be added in my team. Thank you

Is anyways grammatically correct?

Simply put, “ anyway ” without an S is correct . Always use it without the S. “ Anyways ” with the S is considered slang, and is a part of nonstandard, colloquial, or informal English. Furthermore, since “ anyway ” is an adverb and it is impossible for adverbs to be plural.

When I was a moderator anyone that wrote to me to be in my team and used anyways, would not be added in my team.

That’s harsh, to deny a volunteer the opportunity to contribute just because you don’t like them using that one word. Not to mention against Viki’s guidelines.

Now, shall we talk about commas?

@angelight313_168

When I was a moderator anyone that wrote to me to be in my team and used anyways, would not be added in my team.

The correct form of this sentence would be:

When I was a moderator, anyone who wrote to me to be in my team and used “anyways” would not be added in my team.

You see, we can all be picky about certain things. But that shouldn’t be the reason to ban someone from their team. Especially not if it’s written merely in the communication in Discussions.

[angelight313_941]

I don’t see why you chose to criticize what I wrote and how I wrote it because you know the use of [anyways] is incorrect, and as you can see @ hvnyi wrote it TWICE: not once. I HATE/ DETEST to see that word all over the subtitles here at this site in the dramas/movies/shows. That is why I mentioned this to @ hvnyi . Hoping upon hope that hvnyi realized her mistake regarding [ANYWAYS] (in case no one had ever mentioned this to hvnyi )

That I didn’t use commas when I wrote what I wrote to @ hvnyiwould have been totally irrelevant to her since she obviously doesn’t even know that [anyways] is incorrect, and should not be used in a sentence, much less in a subtitle here at viki.com.

When I was a moderator in a drama I knew more or less, who would be able to give a decent subtitle in a drama, and I have no regrets for not adding them in the team. Guidelines or not, I no longer work as CM/Moderator here. It makes no sense at ALL to see this [ANYWAYS] splattered all over in the dramas/shows/movies (mainly in Korean dramas, shows, movies). I know you must have seen them plenty of times in Korean drams/movies/ shows.

Thank you so much for correcting me, so hvnyi can learn from you, all the ‘‘pointers’’ you mentioned to me.
@bozoli
btw, I found something you wrote that you missed no one but two commas, and I never mentioned that or the spelling words you missed bc we tend to rush and is human to err

[This was written by you back in May 2020]
My dear, I (purple heart) you for this. I was thinking the same, but didn’t know if it should be mentioned. But it is so true! In this benevolent community we need to keep learning how to share! We need to put our egos behind. We need to revel in the satisfaction that a volunteer you helped get started, one day becomes your equal or even surpasses you.

Correction: by the word [same] you have to remove the comma and by the word [community] you had to add a comma. The word [anyways] does not exist in the dictionary nor is a correct spelling; so I was trying to make sure the future volunteer here at Rviki.com. didn’t continue the bad habit of writing [ANYWAYS] in the drama’s subtitles. It was very unfair from you, to make it look like I did something so wrong to hvnyi

You use to be a great advocate of things to be fair, and quality work to be present in the drama’s subtitles here at Rviki.com, and I hope that hasn’t changed for you now in the present time.

[lovemyself]

I think you should be careful with the use of pronouns. Maybe that person doesn’t like being called “her” or “she”. I mean… for someone could be disrespectful or offensive being called by a specific pronoun. So it’s better to use “them”. Or just put their name.

ah i see, thank you so much for letting me know!

ah i see, thank you so much for letting me know!

@hvnyi
You are very welcome, dear. I just don’t want that word affecting you to be able to get recruited in the teams. Welcome to RViki and Good Luck.

Do you have a different username on the main Viki site? Because I tried with the one you have here and the page says it doesn’t exist, gives an error message.

She changed her username:

And of course forgot to come back here and tell us about it. And then she’ll be wondering why she didn’t get any offers to be on a team. Sigh!
