\n2) Name the file with your translation as follows: pr for prose, ly for poetry_your last name_the author\u2019s last name_e. So Anthea Bell\u2019s translation of prose by E. T. A. Hoffmann would be: pr_bell_hoffmann_e.doc. Name the file with the original the same way, but ending with _dt (pr_bell_hoffmann_dt.doc). Stephen Mitchell\u2019s translation of Rilke poems would be ly_mitchell_rilke_e.doc, and the original would be ly_mitchell_rilke_dt.doc. <\/p>\n
