Case Studies

Business sector: web sites content - translation for culturalisation

One key requirement of most of our clients is for “culturalisation” in respect of their multi-media material, especially web-based content: they need it to be culturalised. This means that the translation into other languages must be such that the translations convey the technical and factual content from the source material in the way in which the local reader would expect it to be if it were written in that reader’s own language i.e. that it does not look like a translation. This need covers text, idioms, colours, styles and even gestures.

The web pages, or other communication material, must metamorphose by country and region and by language and dialect convey the “local cultural messages” to users in each of the target languages.

Client examples include the translation of web based material, which was culturalised by us for Dutch for the Netherlands and Belgium; separately culturalised in French for France, Belgium and Switzerland; and separately culturalised in German for Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

Our clients benefit from our quality culturalisation and integrated language translation services: the results are improved communications with each different audience and create better local affinities in different parts of the world, better communications of the messages, and a higher and better public profile, leading to an enhanced trading performance.

The languages translated cover all of West, Central and East Europe; the Middle East, the Indian sub-continent and the Far East.
