Overview

Meridial by Invisible seeks Arabic language specialists to review language outputs and translations as independent contractors. Work centers on clarity, consistency, and translation accuracy for a chosen Arabic dialect and locale. Reviewers check grammar, spelling, word choice, natural phrasing, and whether translations preserve meaning without omissions or unsupported additions. Assignments also involve comparing outputs and giving actionable feedback against project guidelines. Remote work with $6.00/hr pay.

What You'll Do6

Check language outputs for grammar errors, spelling mistakes, awkward word choices, and phrasing that sounds unnatural.
Compare translations with source content to confirm meaning, completeness, and context.
Flag mistranslations, omitted details, and content added without support.
Evaluate whether terminology, tone, style, and dialect stay consistent across outputs.
Spot regional inconsistencies and expressions that sound inappropriate or unnatural for the locale.
Compare multiple outputs and write clear feedback that follows project guidelines.

Requirements5

Strong command of Arabic and the specific dialect you choose.
Knowledge of the locale's vocabulary, expressions, cultural context, and everyday language use.
Careful attention to detail and ability to apply review guidelines the same way across tasks.
Ability to explain language problems and propose clear corrections.
Complete the Arabic language assessment and confirm the dialect-specific acknowledgement for your selection.

Who Should Apply

Arabic speakers with strong command of Saudi, Lebanese, Emirati, Moroccan (Darija), or Iraqi Arabic and a firm grasp of their locale's cultural context. The work fits people who can catch mistranslations, inconsistent terminology, and unnatural phrasing, then explain fixes in clear feedback.

Salary Insight

Compensation is $6.00/hr, as stated in the listing. For independent contractor language review, that rate is modest relative to specialized translation and localization work, so weigh task volume and payment terms before committing.
