Hello everyone,

I’m still translating the form for „Application for Financial Aid“ –
but I’m not used to the style of writing used in British English
forms.

Maybe it would be helpful for me to have a look at such forms - how

Hello everyone,

I’m still translating the form for „Application for Financial Aid“ –
but I’m not used to the style of writing used in British English
forms.

Maybe it would be helpful for me to have a look at such forms - how
they are written and which style of language is used there.

But I have problems in finding accessible material. The only ones I
found had been .pdf files and I don't want to imprint the whole
document just to be able to have a look at those forms. PDF-files
aren’t very accessible for me.

Has anybody an idea how I can make myself a little bit familiar with
the style of writing in forms so that I could then adapt it in my
translation as well?

Thank you very much for any ideas.

Have a nice day with lots of sunshine. ▲ Collapse
