$2-8 USD / hour

I would like to hire someone, preferably in Africa (Kenya, Nigeria, Ghana, SA), to collect famous quotes and give brief meaning of each from different countries in Africa. The same can be categorized based on the subject such as proverbs about poverty, wealth, money, women, thieves, kids....this is rather straight forward job for a good researcher. In your bid, explain how many proverbs or sayings or quotes you can assemble. You can copy paste and rearrange them to duplication, but 100% CS pass is not necessary here. Ideally, will pay them for each batch of 50 or 100. I want to capture more than 1000 sayings, proverbs and quotes. I propose $2/100, but it is negotiable. quality comes first.

Hello, I'm an African as you can see, and lived with the elderly who mostly spoke in parables, for some time. My grandmother was always saying, 'A child on the mother's back doesn't know how long the journey is' whenever I wasted food or any other thing. I can give you many African proverbs, sayings and quotes, with their meanings, if you hire me to do this job, in an error-free and very unique way. I hope to hear from you with further details so I can start immediately. Thanks, Neodynamite.

First of all i am an African. Proverbs are our part and parcel of our conversations daily. I have been gathering them since i was young and have been always excited doing so. I have also read many African writers like Chinua Achebe, Ferdinand Oyono, Kenjo Jumbam etc. Cameroon has more than 279 ethnic groups and is full of proverbs from diverse background. I have been working with the Fulani people in my town now with whom we have a good relationship. This tribe is particularly rich with proverbial expression. Being a close friend of many Fulanis, I will fit this job because of the people person i am to the Fulani of my town.

"I am hungry is not to be expressed by whistling" means A seriously matter should not be addressed lightly but with all vigour I am an African and a Nigerian to be specific, I was raised with deep seated proverbs and idioms which has become part of my source of inspiration on a daily basis because of their rich cultural lessons and moral. I offer to work for $8/hr and I would put together 1000 African proverbs with their meaning at the rate of $10 per 100. Do contact me and let us close out this project. Thank you.

The project aim is to collect African proverbs that will reflect all aspect of human life and activity.I speak the native Yoruba language and can communicate perfectly,i give health lectures in the language and most times proverbs have to be used to drive home the point.I also speak another native Nigerian language.I believe i'm the best for the job because i have a practical knowledge of the effect proverbs have on human actions.i intend to source for the proverbs from elders in the rural community,i will also use the libraries to search for proverbs and lastly i will use information from the radio and television because most of them host such programs.I'm open for further discussion on the project.
