As a translation agency, we get in direct contact with people from all over the world who need our help with various documents in various languages. This is why we maintain a diverse team of collaborators who can approach any type of document in about 120 languages.
For instance, we can offer English into German translation in London, because we work with highly trained German translators who can handle documents and works from a wide range of areas (legal, medical, technical, educational, and so on).
English Into German Translation & German Into English Translation
Most English speakers find German rather difficult to learn and decipher, but to a linguist, things are a bit different. First, a translator or someone who works in a similar niche knows that the two languages are members of the West Germanic branch, which belongs to the Indo-European family.
This means that English and German are rather close in linguistic terms, which should make English into German and German into English translations a lot easier. However, the Geman language can be rather challenging in comparison to English.
The differences are even more difficult to ignore with specific types of documents such as:
Official Documents
Birth certificates, marriage certificates, and any other type of documents that are used to establish someone’s identity and general social status require 100% accurate translation. Moreover, the translation must follow a certain template and it must be certified (don’t know what this means? Read more about certified translations!)
Technical Manuals
The technical field is diverse and we receive all sorts of manuals, terms of use, instructions, and more for translation. Now, since these documents are usually aimed at the final user, the translation must be written with the regular person in mind.
This can be difficult since the translator doesn’t have much room for creativity (it is a technical field after all). Also, it can be difficult to describe certain technical terms, that make sense in German, into English.
Diplomas, Certificates, Patents, and Other Documents
Another request we receive often when it comes to English into German translation is for translation of documents in the educational field. But we also work with more specialised documents like patents and all the related documentation needed.
Native German Translators
As you can see, we work with documents that will be used to apply for visas, residency in a foreign country, bank loans, and other situations where accuracy and correctness are crucial. This is why, when we have a request for an English into German translation, we always work with native German speakers who are knowledgeable and specialize in a relevant field.
