Earn for translating textes

This is actually one of the first things i looked into when i got into trying to make money online. I tried for a short while on freelancer sites and a few other translation sites. I either couldnt join because of geo location. I either had to bid=beg on freelancer sites. Or my translation isn't good enough. I can do literal translation word for word no problem. But when i did a test translation for one site i didnt pass because they said: Even though your translation is correct, the syntax of some parts was weird, or something like that. Then i read the particular site usually doesn't usually approve you the first time. So you should re-do the test. Again, i do not beg. So i said F. that. And i moved on. Their loss. Freelancer type sites. Begging for work. No. Test not passed based on a minor technicality where it's obvious that i did a good job. Beg for passing the test by re-doing it a few times. No. No begging. Period. :)
