Translating specialist articles or advertising texts into English isn’t as simple as it sounds. Those feeling bold can find the technical terms, syntax, or merely the false friends a tough nut to crack. So that the English translation retains the same effect of the German source text, specialists need to be involved. This is the only way to guarantee reputable market presence.
Say goodbye to literal translation
Reproducing the source text word for word isn’t enough. Many German terms can’t be translated directly into English. The correct English equivalent has to be used, or the term explained. This is called functional translation, as the function of the source text is reflected in the target text. Our language experts help build this bridge and perfectly translate the linguistic picture into the target language.
Native-speaking linguists working in both language combinations work as part of our first-class German-English translation team. Additionally, we only use specialists from the respective discipline to ensure that your translation meets the highest standards.
