Translation rate?

[Julio Rodriguez]

This is an answer regarding translation rates from English into Russian.


The rates vary from $0.10 to$0.15 per word. If Peter Scotto is looking for a
translator, we could give him a reference to a very qualified translator in
New York City.

Does anyone have any idea of what a reasonable rate (US$) would be for
translation from English into Russian? Per word? Per page (250 words)?

A colleague from the philosophy department wants a 4000-word film
transcript put into Russian, and I am trying to set him up with a
translator.
