5 things you need to know when you are opting for Arabic

Translation services

Just by knowing these 5 things you will be a better judge when it comes to hiring Arabic translation service and manage the job in hand better than anyone else.

MediumThere are 2 types of medium – “translation when typed” and “interpretation when oral”. In case of typed translation there will be some sort of typing involved – like documents, websites, and software. They all need to be translated.  Keep in mind that you don’t hire a translator when you are making a call to Abu Dhabi. You hire an interpreter. Interpretation by its intrinsic characteristic is supposed to be live and involves voice communication.

Subject It involves, “general” and “expert” translation services. In case of the general translation, it is not necessary that the concerned person needs to have specialized knowledge. Say for example translating a business letter in Arabic language.

However, if the translation involves documents in finance, law or medicines, one should have expert knowledge on the subject matter. A mere grasp on the Arabic language will be of no use.

PurposeYou need translation services either for informative reasons or for publishing purposes. Keep in mind that if the translation is meant for publishing then the translator should have expert knowledge.

LeverageIn case of leveraging it can be either CAT translation or Machine translation. With CAT translation you get the opportunity to save the previous work done by human translators for future reference. And in case of machine translation, you depend on a machine to get the work done. Say for example, many of us rely on Google to get the translation done.
