Technical Translation
Technical translation is the process of transferring the meaning of technical content from one language to another. This requires broad scientific and technical knowledge, proficiency in the use of technical terminology and extensive knowledge of both the source and target languages, as well as the ability to accurately transpose concepts without losing the message to be conveyed.
Due to their complexity and need for documentation and specific terminology, many activities and businesses require in-depth technical knowledge. In specialist sectors, overall communication must be of the highest quality – and in many situations, clear interpretations can prevent financial or material loss.
