Why should I use the services of a professional
translator?
In the increasingly global marketplace,
more and more companies will need written, printed or online text
translated from or into another language.
You may want to understand the meaning of
incoming correspondence or printed matter in foreign languages. You
may need to produce promotional or technical material in the
language of foreign clients or associates. You may have decided to
translate your website to attract business in non-English speaking
markets. The effects of inadequate translation can vary from
laughter to serious misunderstanding and even offence on the part
of the recipient. While you might laugh at translation ‘howlers’ in
notices and instructions in English, ‘We take your baggages and
send them off in different directions…’, would you find it so funny
if your customers were laughing at your own material in their
language? Or if you offended a potential customer with a misused
word or sentence?
