In this page you will find many elements. Let’s see what they are individually: \\
1 – **Task name**: the name of the task you are translating. This info is useful when raising 
queries in Global Query. \\
2 – **Hit ID**: the identification number associated to the string you are translating. This info is 
useful when raising queries in Global Query. \\
3 – **Source Language text**: the source string to be translated. \\
4 – **The source string is not complete (partial)**: the checkbox to be selected when the source 
is truncated. \\
5 – **The source string is not in the expected language**: the checkbox to be selected when the 
source is not in the expected language, for example you are translating from English into 
German, but the source text is in French. \\
6 – **Note**: it can contain info or a link to check the context of the source string. \\
7 – **Proposed translation 1**: the box where you have to input the 1st translation. \\
8 – **Proposed translation 2**: the box where you have to input the 2nd translation. \\
9 – **Submit**: the button to confirm your translation and send it to the system. \\
10 – **Skip HIT**: the button to skip the hit in case you don’t feel comfortable with its content 
(adult content, insults, etc.). \\
11 – Instructions: this panel contains quick links to the job guidelines in Sharepoint site 
that you carefully need to check and follow during the project. \\

- Read the source carefully, check the note (if any) to see the context, and provide 2 **different** 
translations following the provided linguistic guidelines. Make sure the text is accurate and reads 
fluent and natural.  \\
- When you are done and are sure about the proposed translations, click Submit to send it to the 
system. \\
**NOTE**! In case there is a sentence with __adult content, insults, etc__. you don't feel comfortable with, 
click **SKIP HIT** to have it assigned to another translator. \\

- If the source string is not complete (it is truncated), select "**The source string is not complete 
(partial)**" and translate the string literally, leaving the translation truncated as well.

- If the source is in another language (different from the one you are supposed to translate from), 
select "**The source string is not in the expected language**" and Submit the string directly without 
providing any translation. \\

right corner of the screen (next to your username) to go back to the My Task dashboard.
