This comprehensive approach ensures accurate, culturally appropriate, and high-quality translations every time.

Translation and localization are related but distinct services:

Translation involves converting text from one language to another while maintaining the meaning and context of the original content. It focuses primarily on linguistic accuracy.

Localization goes beyond translation to adapt content for a specific target market or culture. This comprehensive process includes:

• Adapting cultural references, idioms, and expressions
• Modifying images, colors, and design elements to suit local preferences
• Adjusting formats for dates, currencies, measurements, and addresses
• Ensuring compliance with local regulations and requirements
• Adapting content to reflect local user expectations and behaviors

While translation makes content understandable in another language, localization makes it culturally relevant and appropriate for the target audience.

The timeline for a translation project depends on several factors:

• Volume of content (word count)
• Complexity and technical nature of the subject matter
• Language pair (some languages require more time)
• Required services (translation only, or including editing, proofreading, desktop publishing, etc.)
• File formats and technical requirements

As a general guideline, professional translators typically handle 2,000-3,000 words per day for standard content. For a more accurate timeline estimate for your specific project, please contact us with your requirements, and we'll provide a detailed schedule.
