Affinity Translation provides expert English-to-French and French-to-English translation services for all types of written material. Translation accuracy, on-time delivery, and competitive pricing are among the main criteria by which each Affinity Translation translation project is measured.

Translation Accuracy

Translation accuracy is critical to the success of every project no matter the size. All projects undergo initial translation followed by editing review(s) to ensure the highest quality (see translation process description below).

Affinity Translation translators rank among the most skilled and experienced native speaking linguists in the translation and localization industries. Despite some advancements in automated translation technologies, native speaking human translators remain the best approach for producing high quality translations.

Affinity Translation Standard

English <> French Translation Process

L1. Review and Preparation: Source material is reviewed to identify any special terminology; research is conducted and glossaries are created as needed.

L2. Initial Translation: Translation from the source to target language is conducted.

L3. Editing and Review: Text is reviewed and edited following initial translation.

L4. Final Proofing : A final proofreading is done to ensure the highest quality translation.

L5. Delivery and Approval: Translated text is provided to the client for approval.

Translation Pricing

Translation pricing is based on a per word rate determined by factoring in multiple project specific criteria including: 1) the nature (relative complexity) of the source material, 2) the scope of the project (measured in word-count), and 3) turnaround time (i.e., rush vs. standard turnaround time).

Translation Process Schedule/Turnaround Time

We recognize that translation project schedules can be critical considerations. Actual project durations vary depending on the scope and complexity of each project. We work closely with our clients to determine project schedules that allow sufficient time for high quality translation processes and project delivery in a timely manner.

Areas of Specialization

Most professional translators have areas of specialization according to their backgrounds, education, personal interests, etc. Our pledge is to assign translators, editors and reviewers that specialize in and are qualified to support the specific requirements of a given translation project. Assuring the optimal match between translator(s) and projects not only ensures high quality translations but also promotes efficiency, thereby keeping costs as low as possible. Affinity Translation has translation specialists available to support projects across a broad spectrum of subject areas and topics.

About the French Language

French is a Romance language globally spoken by about 77 million people as a first language (mother tongue), by 190 million as a second language, and by about another 200 million people as an acquired foreign language, with significant speakers in 57 countries. Most native speakers of the language live in France, where the language originated. The rest live essentially in Canada (particularly Quebec, and to a lesser extent Ontario and New Brunswick), Belgium, Switzerland, French-speaking Africa (Cameroon, Gabon, Côte d'Ivoire), Luxembourg, Monaco. Most second-language speakers of French live in Francophonic Africa, arguably exceeding the number of native speakers. The Democratic Republic of the Congo is the Francophone country with the largest population.

French is a descendant of the Latin language of the Roman Empire, as are national languages such as Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, Romanian, and Catalan, and minority languages ranging from Occitan to Neapolitan and many more. Its development was also influenced by the native Celtic languages of Roman Gaul and by the Germanic language of the post-Roman Frankish invaders.

It is an official language in 29 countries, most of which form what is called, in French, La Francophonie, the community of French-speaking nations. It is an official language of all United Nations agencies and a large number of international organizations. According to the European Union, 129 million (26% of the 497,198,740) people in 27 member states speak French, of which 65 million (12%) are native speakers and 69 million (14%) claim to speak it either as a second language or as a foreign language, which makes it the third most spoken second language in the Union, after English (2nd rank) and German (1st rank). In addition, prior to the mid 20th century, French served as the preeminent language of diplomacy among European and colonial powers as well as a lingua franca among the educated classes of Europe.

As a result of France's extensive colonial ambitions between the 17th and 20th centuries, French was introduced to America, Africa, Polynesia, and the Caribbean. As a result, many creole languages developed as a result of the mixture of French and native languages. Source: Wikipedia.org

About Denver

The City and County of Denver is the capital and the most populous city of the state of Colorado, in the United States. Denver is a consolidated city-county located in the South Platte River Valley on the High Plains just east of the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains. The Denver downtown district is located immediately east of the confluence of Cherry Creek with the South Platte River, approximately 15 miles (24 km) east of the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. Denver is nicknamed the Mile-High City because its official elevation is exactly one mile, or 5,280 feet (1,609 m) above sea level. The 105th meridian west of Greenwich passes through Union Station, making it the reference point for the Mountain Time Zone. The city of Denver's area is much smaller than that of Colorado's second most populous city, Colorado Springs.

The United States Census Bureau estimated that the population of Denver was 598,707 in 2008, making it the 24th most populous U.S. city. The 10-county Denver-Aurora Metropolitan Statistical Area had an estimated 2008 population of 2,706,947 and ranked as the 21st most populous U.S. metropolitan statistical area and the 12-county Denver-Aurora-Boulder Combined Statistical Area had an estimated 2008 population of 3,049,562 and ranked as the 16th most populous U.S. metropolitan area. It is also the second-largest city in the Mountain West after Phoenix. Denver is the largest city in the Front Range Urban Corridor, a fast growing Combined statistical area stretching across eighteen counties in two states. The population of the Front Range Urban Corridor CSA is estimated at 4,251,663. The city has the tenth-largest central business district in the United States. City information source: Wikipedia.org
