Hi,
It is kind of a silly question but could I get advice on where to get my sample translations from?
Some subjects are easier than others, but for example in Tourism, how can I get a source text in Spanish that it has not been translated to English already.
Thank you

Wikisource Jan 30, 2018

Hello Iñaki,

I took the most of my sample translation texts from Wikisource.
The site exists in many different languages, and there is no problem with copyright etc.
However, I can't be absolutely sure that the texts had already been translated before, but I am fine with that.

Regards
