General Translation Services

Authoritative Translation Services

by Native Speaking Linguists

for Business and Professional Organizations

Some types of translation services transcend domain-specific categorical descriptions, not falling neatly into defined categories such as medical, legal, technical, or others. Sometimes this is referred to as 'general' translation. Nevertheless general translation requires the use of translators with a breadth of knowledge to draw on. Rest assured, no matter what the subject matter, Affinity Translation will match your translation project with the ideal professional translator(s).

Independent of the language pair, the term general translation is sometimes used to describe projects that do not otherwise fall into one of the translation specialties such as technology, legal, medical, or others. Whatever the topic, general translation work still requires the attention of language specialists having knowledge of the subject matter, its terminology and usage context. The specific requirements of each general translation project are taken into account in the process of carefully matching projects with the best-suited translators. Affinity Translation works with an extensive network of translators to ensure the best fit between translators (or translator teams) and projects.

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 industiries. Despite some advancements in automated translation technologies, native speaking human translators remain the best approach for producing high quality translations.

Standard Translation Process

General translation services 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.
