Metro Status Update / Pre-Reader Needed

Work is being done and a chapter is in processing ... unfortunately during this time, my Russian translator/pre-reader has gone dark. I hate to say it but that is the reason the story hasn't been updated. I am awaiting word from him, but until then I will be doing something I don't like doing.

I am asking for a temporary pre-reader who is fluent in Russian or is a native Russian. That means either you were born in a country that speaks Russian as their primary language or you have a near perfect comprehension of Russian and can translate nearly any English sentence into its Russian counter part.

Knowledge of the Metro universe is recommended as your job also includes pre-reading and questioning what I write.

This is a temporary duty that lasts until I get word from my normal pre-reader that he is indeed alive and able to continue on with Metro.

If you are interested, PM me.

Thank you.

i got excited when I saw the title, then I read the prerequisite for absolute fluency in Russian, and the train completely derailed off the tracks in my mind

Yeah, unfortunately that is what I need as soon as possible. But I take it you are interested in pre-reading?

Fuck, I am really hoping to learn Russian. Hell, I have a book on it damn it (somewhere). I could help with the Russian part, as soon as I find the fucking book or anything that can translate besides Google Translate.

Edit: I found a website that actually types stuff out in Russian.

This... this is useful... I feel odd using it though ... as if I am betraying my pre-reader.

He may come back one day, tell him that you needed to start pumping chapters out to keep people interest. Hell, when he gets back he can read over the older chapters and correct any mistakes.

I realised upon typing some of the words used in previous chapters that they don't line up. An example would be the word "yes." In Russian it is да while according to the webpage, "yes" is ыес ... that's not right.

дерьмо. Whelp, not much we can do now. I can try and take up Russian (but thanks to school shit that may be impossible). Though, I do have a lot of Russian related people where I live. I may be able to learn some later on, but idk.

The most that can be done is I work on more chapters and backlog them for later... or pray that someone offers help.

Also the reasoning from the keyboard error is that while in theory it is fine, it requires you to know how to spell Russian in the first place.

Do you know the Metro universe? Or at least played both games?

[CMDR Kovacs]
