This is well that IEC but the ship comes in. Our team, consisting of a translator, a proofreader, a linguist consultant, and the culture consultant is given that assignment. The consultants will confer with your staff to make sure that they fully understand the language power, and the image of us of the message.
The team then sets about searching for the equivalent words, images and concepts that are equivalent to the original message. They figure out even the smallest detail, such as colors. For instance, the color purple is favored with most Asian leaders. Even a small spot color may make a difference.

Technical translation requires true subject matter expertise, not just terminology. Glossaries and term management tools keep vocabulary consistent, but accuracy depends on the translator’s understanding of the field.
Each translator and proofreader receive sample pages from the beginning, middle, and end of the document and must read the entire document first. This ensures full context, supports precise decisions, and allows the team to prepare questions early. The project manager then confirms all questions with the client.
We have, working with our clients over the years, developed extensive glossaries in numerous fields. Those glossaries are stored in word management software, enabling consistency through all client specific documents.
Our approach is to present this information in a way that is easily understood—aiming for a 6th to 9th-grade reading level—it is important to strike a careful balance, so the tone remains helpful without sounding condescending.
To achieve full compliance with voting regulations, translators and proofreaders must be in the United States. Overseas translators often misunderstand specific election terms; for example, the term “write-in” refers to writing down the name of a candidate not running for office, rather than simply writing anything down. This type of misunderstanding must be avoided at all costs.
Another critical issue is how candidate names are spelled. In some languages, names can be translated phonetically in multiple ways. Research should always be done to see how names have been translated elsewhere. We can do the research. The goal is to remain consistent and avoid any possibility of a candidate being confused with someone else due to differing phonetic spellings.
In the event that materials have already been translated, we offer an additional proofreading service. The service implements the same standards as if we had translated it original.
To stay in full compliance with regulations, medical translations must be handled with great care. Even a small error can create a medical complication. Because of this, depending on the type of document, we may assign a team of three proofreaders, instead of the standard single proofreader.
Some translations are legal in nature, such as consent forms. Others are medical, such as pharmaceutical advisories and descriptions of medications.
We often recommend lowering the reading level of most materials to about 6th–9 grade, especially when the documents are meant for patients. The average reading level in English is around grade 12, so simplifying the language helps ensure understanding. Of course, this is only done with the client’s approval and instructions.
Translations of life services are often an ongoing process, as most subjects are on a continuous basis, especially when it comes to research.
Researchers will confer with fellow researchers in other countries and languages. The subject matter is normally very sensitive and confidential nature. In fact, all aspects of this field have to be treated in the fullest level of confidentiality. All translators and proofreaders, and in fact all team members who have access documents, are subjected to background checks, and have to have signed NDA’s and more.

Legal translations cover a variety of fields. Corporate law, misery law, criminal law, personal injury law, personal law.
When necessary, we assign a team of a translator, a proofreader, and a linguist consultant. Seemingly legal terms are more concepts, rather than terminology. As an example, the term misdemeanors are not accurate translation. Most translations indicate a misdemeanor is a minor offense. Yet someone can go to jail for your, for a misdemeanor. In such a situation occurs, our linguist consultant will confer with your staff to suggest that the translation have a foot note with a brief description.
All translators and proofreaders, as well as linguist consultants, have a working knowledge of legal terminology in both source and target language is.
In addition to translations, we also offer a bilingual subscribing service.
