Translation of the descriptions of goods and services

Companies commonly face the need for translation of the descriptions of their goods and services, which differ not only because of their specifics, scope, but also the purpose and manner of using such texts. Translators are usually applied to when the following is necessary:

• translation of the descriptions of products produced and exported to a foreign country, adaptation to the market of the target country or public global online marketplaces;
• translation of imported technological, industrial equipment or technical characteristics thereof, used internally by the company’s personnel;
• translation of the descriptions of imported goods and products, adapted to local consumers and used in the online stores, websites of companies for publishing;
• translation of the descriptions of services, which is usually associated with an aim to expand the scope of activity to foreign countries or the need to officially introduce activity or implemented projects to foreign clients and partners.

The translation process is different and different translation aims and requirements apply in every indicated case. For example, if translated descriptions of goods will be used: online, printed on labels, published or used internally by a company – a translator shall employ a different translation technique and strategy in every case. A translator working on translating descriptions of goods sold online also faces different tasks, therefore it is important to coordinate all associated matters and discuss individual or additional terms or expectations with our Project Manager when placing an order for translation of the descriptions of goods or services.

The price also depends on the number of repetitions in the descriptions of goods (a lower price is offered to regular clients if the text has standard repetitions, even if they must be maintained in the translation), additional work before, during or after translation.
