Speaker 1: Hello guys, thank you so much for tuning in again to this informative and educational YouTube channel with your host, the one and only Teacher Annie. Today I'm going to talk about HappyScribe. HappyScribe is an online website which offers jobs to transcribers, subtitlers, captioners, and translators. In other words, freelancers like you and me, we are welcome to try our luck with this company called HappyScribe. At HappyScribe, you are paid £90 per captioned audio or transcribed audio or translated audio. You are paid £90. That's a lot of money compared to other transcribing companies. So today, I'm going to help you with the application from the start to the end. Stay tuned until the end of this video. First thing you need to do is to search for HappyScribe on Google. You see their website. You choose transcription jobs from home. You'll be directed to this page. Then you see a blue box which is written Apply. You click. You put your name and your CNM, your email address, and you must create a password with a minimum of 8 characters. You must include capital letters, small letters, numbers, as well as a special character. By special characters, we are talking of a hash or a star or any other special character that you know. So just below the password, you can see it is written English because the other information is not popping up. But if you click that arrow, you see two types of jobs that they offer. They offer transcribing and captioning. Then the other one is translating. You choose the first one, which is transcribing and captioning. You choose English as your language. You confirm everything. Then you sign up. You receive a link which you need to click. Then after clicking that link, you proceed to this page. After proceeding to this page, you'll be able to see the guidelines here. You need to read them. But if you don't want to read them, you click Continue to the test. But you have to read them, these guidelines. They'll help you with your transcribing. So you'll reach this page. So before we start our test, I need to tell you some things you need to know so that you will not make mistakes or you understand captioning very well. You can see that pink box there. It indicates that your caption is not readable. So for you to fix that pink box, you need to drag that below box to the right or to the left until the pink color disappears. If it disappears, it means you are now doing the correct thing. So we need to try. As you can see, now the pink box disappeared. So let's scroll up now for us to see other cases which are different from the one which we solved. So here you can see there's a big pink box here. And this big pink box, if you see it like that, it means your sentence is very long. So they want you to make the sentence short or to cut the sentence. But if you cut the sentence by putting Ender, it will disturb your captioning. You need to press Shift and Ender so that the sentences will remain in the same paragraph. Because if you press Ender alone, the sentences will split. It will go into another paragraph instead of remaining in the same paragraph. I hope you understand what I'm trying to say. So as you can see on the screen, I'm pressing Shift and Ender. So the sentences are now two in the same paragraph and that pink box, big one, disappeared. But still, there's that pink box, the small one at the side. So let's try to fix it. So you must move on the left, on the right, until it disappears, as you can see. Now let's take the test and you must do the corrections where necessary. And as of my test, there are some few pink boxes, but I don't mind because they are just a few. So you need to copy or you need to edit your test. Let's start.

Speaker 2: Our political system is dominated by two big parties, Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil.

Speaker 3: Other countries have a clear dividing line between the leading political groups, but in Ireland, we're different.

Speaker 2: So what, if anything, does divide the two power centres of Irish politics?

Speaker 4: In Ireland, we don't fit the international pattern. The closeness of the village community fuses family, friendship, commerce and politics, making each a personal affair.

Speaker 3: Usually, there's a big block on the left, basically people who favour higher taxes to pay for better public services and state involvement in the economy.

Speaker 2: And then there's a block on the right, who back lower taxes and favour market solutions. But in Ireland, we have two big parties and they're both, broadly speaking, right-ish.

Speaker 3: Down the decades, they've moved further right or to the left, but they've generally sat around the centre of the political spectrum.

Speaker 4: This is the way of things. In Ireland, it is the politician's role to provide the linkage between countryman and bureaucrat.

Speaker 3: So where are they today? At the last general election, RT carried out an exit poll, asking people to place themselves on a left-right scale, so zero being very left-wing and ten being very right-wing.

Speaker 2: The mean or average voter was at 4.98, pretty much bang in the centre. But supporters of Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil were at 5.84 and 5.7, respectively. In other words, both are slightly to the right of the average voter and the two are almost exactly the same. So in crude terms, they're both targeting the same market.

Speaker 3: But there could be differences on other issues, so nationalism for instance, and that's the issue that divided Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil in the first place. The two stem from the Sinn Féin party, which split in the early 1920s over the Anglo-Irish Treaty.

Speaker 4: The local common, or branch of Fianna Fáil, traces its genealogy directly from the first Sinn Féin common in the peninsula. Secretary of the common is John McAteer.

Speaker 1: This is the end, guys, of the test. As you can see on my test, there are a few pink boxes. I don't mind because there are just a few, but if you want, you can edit because I told you how to edit. So after editing, you submit your test, you receive an email that you have been shortlisted because I was shortlisted with this same email. So remember to subscribe. Bye. See you next time.
