The Translator’s Proficiency Test has been designed to accurately evaluate the level of understanding of the language from which translators will be translating into their native language.

The Translator’s Proficiency Test is a multiple choice test consisting of 10 questions determined randomly employing a mathematical algorithm. Each question has 5 possible answers numbered 1-5. Select the most appropriate response in the target language and proceed to the next question. The test takes no longer than 10-15 minutes (there is no time limit, however).

Instructions

• Language Selection
  The Native Language drop down box must the language you will be translating into, with the Learnt Language drop down box the language you will be translating from. For example, if you want to translate from Japanese (learnt language) to English (native language), then select Native Language (English) and Learnt Language (Japanese).
  
  Please select the correct language combination to ensure that you will be translating into your native language. An incorrect selection will require a re-testing in the correct combination.
  
  
• BACK or REFRESH Button
  Each selection is final, and can not be changed employing the browser BACK or REFRESH button after being submitted. The test can be taken as many times as required.
  
  
• Browser Language and Character Set
  The language encoding (language and character set) for the Learnt Language needs to be enabled on your browser. Unicode UTF-8 is employed.

Good luck!
