To be added to as needed. Actually, none of these questions have yet been asked frequently (or at all), but I thought they might be.
Q. Why are you doing this?
A. Because I love opera and because translation is fun.
Q. Can I use your translation for personal use or to share with my friends?
A. Of course. That's what they're here for.
Q. Can I use your translation as part of something for profit?
A. No.
Q. Can I post your translation on my website or blog?
A. You may, although I'd prefer if you link here.
Q. Can I use your translation in a program?
A. Almost certainly, but please ask first. If nothing else, I like to know where my translations are going.
Q. Can I post or print your translation somewhere else without your name on it?
A. Oh, come on. I spend time doing this. Please keep my name attached to my work.
Q. But your name isn't listed here.
A. If you're just posting a translation in a Dreamwidth or LiveJournal entry, you can refer to me as![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
opera_cat; if you're doing something more formal, contact me and I will let you know.
Q. How do I contact you?
A. E-mail me at opera (dot) translation (at) gmail (dot) com, send a private message through Dreamwidth, or leave a comment to one of my entries.
Q. Do you take requests?
A. Absolutely. I might even have the translation you want already sitting on my hard drive but not gotten around to posting it.
Q. I found a mistake in your libretto or translation.
A. Mistakes happen. Please let me know and I'll fix it.
Q. Your translations are no good.
A. Then why are you here?
