Chinese Translations
Unlike other companies, which handle an English to Chinese translation as if Chinese was a single language, at Today Translations we will always ask you whether you want your English document translated into Mandarin Chinese or Cantonese Chinese.
Spoken in the Guangdong and southern Guangsi provinces of mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau, Cantonese has appeared in writing since the 19th century. It is used mainly in personal letters, diaries, comics, poetry, advertising, newspapers, magazines and, to some extent, in literature.
There are two standard ways of written Cantonese: a formal version and a colloquial version. The formal version is quite different from spoken Cantonese but very similar to Standard Chinese and can be understood by Mandarin speakers without much difficulty. Nevertheless, colloquial version is much closer to spoken Cantonese and largely unintelligible to Mandarin speakers.
At Today Translations we take heartily your ambition of providing a local service to your clients, so we will handle your English to Chinese translation or Chinese to English translation in such a way it will meet the expectations of your target audience.
