Bus/Financial - Education / Pedagogy | | English term or phrase: General Work Readiness Personal Reflectment | I'm thinking of using the subject phrase in a heading that lists a series of questions to answer and that will be used to evaluate the respondent. Country is the USA, target audience mostly of Mexican origin. I'm debating the following.
Reflexión sobre el alistamiento para trabajar en general de modo personal.
Reflexión sobre el alistamiento para ir a trabajar en general con el método personal.
Reflexión acerca del alistamiento para trabajar en general a través del sistema personal.
Reflexión personal acerca del alistamiento para trabajar en general.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks! |

Not sure why I can not quite understand the translations you suggested. My understanding of my sentence would be as suggested. Hope it is helpful.
I can not find any translation for the word reflectment so I took what I assume reflectment means from your translation as "Reflexión" |

Asker: Oscarvil, the author has coined the word, "reflectment." In English and in context, it is understandable. You assumed right to translate it as you have. Many thanks. Including yours, I got some great answers. Saludos.

3 hrs confidence: | general work readiness personal reflectment reflexión personal sobre la disposición general al trabajo /sobre la actitud general ante el trabajo
Explanation:
Entiendo que hay una aposición de dos conceptos: "personal reflectment" y "general work readiness".
Es como si dijera: "personal reflectment on general work readiness"

Según el contexto, también se podría utilizar el posesivo: "sobre su disposición general / su actitud general"

2 hrs confidence: | general work readiness personal reflectment Reflexión personal sobre su disposición para realizar trabajos generales
Explanation:
Otra opción con sutiles diferencias, =)
Ese "general work" supongo que aplica a trabajos de mantenimiento y limpieza, por ejemplo, o trabajos manuales que no requieren mucha capacitación... al menos así se usa comúnmente.
Luego, me parece que el adjetivo personal afecta directamente al sustantivo reflexión, y que disponibilidad no es lo mismo que disposición. Disponibilidad dennota oportunidad; disposición, por otro lado, lleva la idea de actitud, es decir si quien responde estaría dispuesto a yo que sé...
Saludos
