Well.... I don't know what to say about this. I do know that all of the words are in English, but I don't understand any of them. And here I was thinking that one cover letter that I received awhile ago toped everything (I do good work, pay me what you want) but now I guess you've toped that.
I do admire anyone who can speak/understand a different language of their native language, but IMO this doesn't qualify for that. Perhaps the use of Google Translate produced that cover letter. This could be the reason many jobs go without hiring anyone.
Communication with clients wants and freelancers understanding of that, would be a HUGE problem.

last time I've seen some of those words was when I was re-reading Macbeth 😉
...and I'm not sure even google translate would recognize some of them..it's like something between Jane Austen and Mahabharata...it's a very thoughtful concept with disastrous execution, I'd say.
...sorry for my primitive reply 😉

"waiting for your most primitive reply"
LOL
This is what paid connects were made from.

That is one brave freelancer.
I will be the first to admit that I have never stepped forward and put my cover letter or resumé up on a website in a language that wasn't my native language.
So kudos for sheer audacity.
