A lump sum
Hi,
One of my clients say, "I will give a lump sum for all the pages you translate." I believe this means that all the payments will be made at once. (let's say 900 USD)
Then my questions goes like, how could I say if I prefer to receive it separately, base on the progress of his project? maybe three times.
"I preder to recieve the payment three times separately, 300 USD each" ? Sounds terribly wrong.
Will you tell me the correct way to say things like this?
Thank you,
M
