    Message 1: Slovak reader

    Subject: Slovak reader


    I am a linguist working at Lonely Planet Publications in Melbourne. We currently have a Czech/Slovak book in production which includes a small language section.

    Our normal practise is to have a reader check the language section supplied by the author. Unfortunately, our Slovak reader has had to pull out so we are looking for a Slovak reader to check the language section for errors. It is not a large section - 3 or 4 pages - and should not take too much time to check.

    We would prefer someone locally (ie, in Australia) as there isn't much time but will consider any suitable applications. Of course, suitable payment will be made.

    Thanks in advance,

    Peter D'Onghia Lonely Planet Publications peterolonelyplanet.com.au
