Hi, I'm putting together translation samples in a variety of specializations (legal, automotive, etc.) for my website, and I'm not too sure how the legal side of things works, since you're reproducing someone else's work and then demonstrating a translation of that. Where do you get your translation samples from? What copyright is involved for that kind of thing? Any useful resources you could recomend? Cheers

Reference to source and author Feb 3, 2012

Hi Lara!

I have put in my website, in the blog section, some articles that I have translated from Swedish to Portuguese followed by the link to the reference source together with the author´s name of the original text. I don´t upload the original articles which are published in a newspaper available in the internet. In this case, I think this procedure is sufficient as far as I know.

Best regards.
