A test translation is a free translation of up to 300 words carried out by two translators per target language. The purpose of a test translation is to help you select a translator who most closely aligns with your branding, style and tone of voice. As this service is provided at no cost to you, delivery time is longer than our paid services.
Our express translation service is great for those times when you need a translation quickly. We typically deliver translations of 1,500 or less within 24 hours. If you need us to translate more than 1,500 words per day, or we need to work over the weekend, we will treat this as an express translation and do our best to fulfil your request.
A certified translation is carried out by an authorised translator to ensure legal equivalence to the original document. This type of translation is more common for official documents, legal rulings and other related content.
The legal requirements relating to legal equivalence translation differ from country to country. It is important, therefore, that you inform us of the context in which the translation will be used. We can also help you arrange courier delivery, notarisation, etc.
A proofread is a linguistic check of a text in a single language. The proofreader does not alter the content or meaning of the text, but rather ensures that spelling and punctuation are correct, the text has a natural flow and that it is idiomatically correct.
The proofread is always carried out by a linguist who is a native speaker of the language in question. If the text to be proofread is a translation, it is always performed by someone other than the original translator.
A review is a linguistic check of a text in a single language. A review differs from a proofread in that it guarantees the text is correct and appropriate for the agreed purpose. A review could include the examination of a text that has been written in a language by a non-native writer.
A review is always carried out by a linguist who is a native speaker of the language in question. If the text to be reviewed is a translation, it is always performed by someone other than the original translator.
A revision entails comparing the translation with the original text to ensure that it is appropriate for the agreed purpose, that cultural references and terminology are used correctly and that it matches any reference material.
A revision is always performed by someone other than the original translator.
