Affinity Translation provides expert English-to-Norwegian and Norwegian-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 <> Norwegian 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 Norwegian Language

Norwegian is a North Germanic language spoken primarily in Norway, where it is the official language. Together with Swedish and Danish, Norwegian forms a continuum of more or less mutually intelligible local and regional variants.

These Scandinavian languages together with the Faroese language and Icelandic language, as well as some extinct languages, constitute the North Germanic languages (also called Scandinavian languages). Faroese and Icelandic are hardly mutually intelligible with Norwegian in their spoken form, because continental Scandinavian has diverged from them.

As established by law and governmental policy, there are two official forms of written Norwegian – Bokmål (literally "book language") and Nynorsk (literally "new Norwegian"). The Norwegian Language Council is responsible for regulating the two forms, and recommends the terms "Norwegian Bokmål" and "Norwegian Nynorsk" in English. Two other written forms without official status also exist: Riksmål ("national language"), which is to a large extent the same language as Bokmål, but somewhat closer to the Danish language, is regulated by the Norwegian Academy, which translates it as "Standard Norwegian". Høgnorsk ("High Norwegian") is a more purist form of Nynorsk that rejects most spelling reforms from the 20th century, but is not widely used.

There is no officially sanctioned standard of spoken Norwegian, and most Norwegians speak their own dialect in all circumstances. The sociolect of the urban upper and middle class in East Norway can be regarded as a de facto spoken standard for Bokmål because it adopted many characteristics from Danish when Norway was under Danish rule. This so-called standard østnorsk ("Standard Eastern Norwegian") is the form generally taught to foreign students. Source: Wikipedia.org
