Online Translation

• Our translators must bridge linguistic and cultural gaps between people who do not speak the same language. This includes translating concepts, idioms and pragmatic meaning instead of a literal word-for-word interpretation. Incorrect translation can threaten costly international business ventures.
• Computers are capable of reading and compiling terminology. However, computers cannot read between the lines and interpret intended meaning. A single word can mean many different things, depending on context.
• Knowledge comes with experience and familiarity. Our translators work within specialised sectors ensuring they understand all jargon and technical language.
• A translator who specialises in software translation often knows a lot about software development, character limitations, internationalisation issues, and the types of conventions, content or terminology that work best in the target language, even if this differs from the original source text.
• It may be free to use machine translation but there is a cost to cutting corners. Translation errors compromise safety, intellectual property, a company’s image and reputation. Hiring professional translators helps companies keep their reputation intact with global, international customers and avoid cultural and linguistic mistakes. A professionally prepared translation equals quality and accountability.

We understand the usefulness of an online translation tool but recommend a professional translation service to deliver the best quality.
