More than just a Swedish 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 Swedish, 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 Swedish translators.
  • Thorough Swedish localisation.
  • Branding and marketing advice to support our Swedish 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 Swedish translation needs.

Respecting the subtleties of Swedish language and culture

It may not be the cheapest way to get a Swedish language translation but it's a sure way to guarantee a finished result that accurately conveys the message you originally crafted while respecting the subtleties of the Swedish language and culture (localisation is a separate fee payable service to just translation).

Sweden country facts

Background

A military power during the 17th century, Sweden has not participated in any war for almost two centuries. An armed neutrality was preserved in both World Wars. Sweden's long-successful economic formula of a capitalist system interlarded with substantial welfare elements was challenged in the 1990s by high unemployment and in 2000-02 and 2009 by the global economic downturns, but fiscal discipline over the past several years has allowed the country to weather economic vagaries. Sweden joined the EU in 1995, but the public rejected the introduction of the euro in a 2003 referendum.
