Handwritten script or 


Typed script using any typesetting software


Let us now see 2 examples of the scripts.

|-

Read the original script carefully a couple of times.


Translate the script sentence by sentence


Each translated sentence should be less than or equal to the original sentence.


Constuct the sentence without changing the meaning of the content

Use simple language 


Need not translate technical words like computer and mouse.


These words can remain in English itself.




|-
