Titel	Dear Mr. M., A colleague...
Vertaling Engels Vertaald door jollyo	Doel-taal: Engels Dear Mr. M., A collegue of mine, his girlfriend is Chinese, looked for a job in China at a foreign firm, e.g. as a production manager, quality surveillance or suchlike. M.B., xxx@yyy.zz I have also given him your coordinates. Best regards, also from M.B., I came across you because of him. We probably met before at a â€œBertschy-partyâ€. Kind regards, M.B.
Details voor de vertaling	It seems a bit strange to me that this letter starts in past tense rather than present tense. "sucht" instead of "suchte"? In which case "looked for" should be edited into "is looking for". Jollyo

	wkn Aantal berichten: 332	It seems like "girlfriend" would be the best translation for Freundin in this setting.

	Shaneeae Aantal berichten: 55	I think "looked for" (she has stopped looking) should be changed to "was looking for" (she may still be looking).

	Lein Aantal berichten: 3389	I agree with all of the above.

	jollyo Aantal berichten: 330	The strange thing is that the original text actually says that this friend stopped looking... The translation is correct in that point, or the writer meant to say something else Girlfriend in English usually has the sound of a relationship, which is not necessarily the case here...

	Lein Aantal berichten: 3389	It could be just any friend, but when someone says 'seine Freundin ist Chinesin' he usually means girlfriend. In a relationship. Otherwise he would have said something like 'he has a Chinese friend', or 'a friend of his is Chinese'.

	merdogan Aantal berichten: 3769	and therefor he looks for a job in China.

	jollyo Aantal berichten: 330	It's fine with me, and hopefully with the requester. Text is edited to 'girlfriend'.
