How do I translate 22 words professionally?

Thanks to Ondřej Suchý for the A2A.For only 22 words, your best bet is to actually put a question (or several) here on Quora. State the target languages required. State the purpose (because that sometimes affect the translation). No need to pay US$150 (outrageous) for 67 translations.If your translation is for an app, you should do translations for the commonest languages first (that is, those that uses Latin script): English, French and Spanish definitely. Then invite users or developers to submit their translations for languages.

How can I make a professional document on Word?

Christina Anderson's is great advice. Using Microsoft Word will allow you to take advantage of lots people that have gone before you. Definitely use a good quality base template and always use styles so you are taking full advantage of the template's design. Also definitely research and use Word's caption feature for your figures and tables and use formatting for the tables and figures that are consistent with the styles available in the template.  Use the equation feature and be consistent throughout on how you use it and where you place equations on the page. Keep your source information in Word so you can auto-generate a compliant bibliography. Even if your school deviates from the MLA and APA standards, it is easier to tweak the pages than to do the whole thing manually. All the design help in the world will not help you, though, if there are basic error of spelling or grammar in the document.  Those kind of errors are a distraction away from the content. Go into grammar settings and crank up the setting for the errors or style issues that it checks for, then investigate, correct or explicit choose to ignore every squiggly underline. Even false positive errors could help you come up with a better, clearer rewrite. Add technical terms of art to you custom dictionary so you make sure that you spell and capitalize them consistently throughout the paper. Get a friend who's writing you respect to give it a read and give them permission to be super picky - then, even when you disagree with a suggestions them, thank them and don't argue (you made need their help again sometimes). Good luck - your determination to do a great job gives you a leg up!

Is there a professional word for candy striper?

That's what they're called. Sorry. Maybe YOU could coin a new term.


Edit: Sorry, I was wrong. This is from wikipedia:

"Hospital volunteers work without regular pay in a variety of health care settings, usually under the supervision of a nurse. Most hospitals train and supervise volunteers through a specialized non-profit organization called an auxiliary. The director of the auxiliary is usually a paid employee of the hospital.

A hospital volunteer is sometimes nicknamed a candy striper. This name is derived from the red-and-white striped jumpers that female volunteers traditionally wore, which resembled stick candy. The name and uniform are used less frequently now.

Volunteers' services are of considerable importance to individual patients as well as the health care system in general. Some people volunteer during high school or college, either out of curiosity about the health-care professions or in order to satisfy mandatory community-service requirements imposed by some schools. Still others volunteer at later stages in their life, particularly after retirement."

To you, what does the word "Professionalism" mean?

Is how professional a person is doing a job, for example you need a lawyer and once you found one this lawyer asks you about the details, gets the witnesses and finds all the proof he needs to take your case, a lawyer like that acted with professionalism, but if he doesn't get any witnesses and at the end sales out the case just to make a deal where the only who makes money is him, that lawyer didn't act with professionalism, because his work was mediocre.

What comes to your mind when you hear the word professional?

Able to separate business from personal.
