English Chinese Translation

At Today Translations, we aim at providing you not just with a Chinese to English translation but with a translation which highlights your products using the regional dialects and localisation for the specific region. Our customers deserve a professional translation service and we are only satisfied when you are satisfied.

Chinese to English translation will always fall foul of your target audience's expectations if it doesn't conform to the customs of the countries where English is spoken. As with other languages such as Arabic, Chinese, German, French, Russian, Spanish etc. the English language also varies depending on which country i.e. the United Kingdom, United States, Canada, Australia, Ireland and New Zealand the translation  targeting.
 
When we handle a Chinese to English translation, we bear in mind that, despite the fact that American, British, Australian and even Canadian English are generally mutually understandable, there are strong enough differences to cause misunderstandings or even a complete communication failure. Therefore we supply a translator who understands localisation and the importance of tailoring your translation for that specific market.

The most relevant thing is that these differences aren't limited to the way words are written but also to interpretation (e.g. "organise" and "organize", "program" and "programme"). While some British words like "naff", "semi" or "busk" are usually unintelligible to an American citizen, many Britons will find it hard to interpret the meaning of "rutabaga", "eggplant" or even "stool pigeon". And caution should be taken in US when asking to be "knocked up".  While in United Kingdom it means to be awakened with a knock on the door but in the US it means to be impregnated.

Translation and interpretation are extremely complex, culturally specific and culturally sensitive. Today Translations ensures your Chinese to English translation reflects these differences.
