german translation
If you simply want the gist of a German webpage or to translate a simple phrase, a basic literal translation from a German translator may suffice – there are even online machine translations that can handle German translations.
But what if translating to or from German underpins the success of your next marketing campaign, expansive commercial literature or a legal document? With so much at stake, including your reputation, can you afford to trust those cheap basic translations?
More than just a German translation
A properly done translation is actually about much more than just a literal translation. Your translator should take into account the subtleties of local dialect when they translate German, as well as the cultural and social considerations relating to where in the country your translation will be used. When even the biggest global brands can fall foul of bad translation, it makes sense to entrust yours to a specialised translator offering services such as these:
- Accurate translation by skilled mother-tongue German translators.
- Thorough German localisation.
- Branding and marketing advice to support our German translation services.
- DTP, typesetting and other services to ensure polished documentation.
- Proven in-house quality and project management systems.
- Advice and support on all your German translation needs.

Background |
As Europe's largest economy and second most populous nation (after Russia), Germany is a key member of the continent's economic, political, and defense organizations. European power struggles immersed Germany in two devastating World Wars in the first half of the 20th century and left the country occupied by the victorious Allied powers of the US, UK, France, and the Soviet Union in 1945. With the advent of the Cold War, two German states were formed in 1949: the western Federal Republic of Germany (FRG) and the eastern German Democratic Republic (GDR). The democratic FRG embedded itself in key Western economic and security organizations, the EC, which became the EU, and NATO, while the Communist GDR was on the front line of the Soviet-led Warsaw Pact. The decline of the USSR and the end of the Cold War allowed for German unification in 1990. Since then, Germany has expended considerable funds to bring Eastern productivity and wages up to Western standards. In January 1999, Germany and 10 other EU countries introduced a common European exchange currency, the euro. |
