Testimonials

We appreciate the superlative translation and editing work done by ELS. Grasping the ultimate aim that underlies a text, they work to that end, going beyond their original task to propose alternative formulations. The result is both literate and a pleasure to read, a text in which every word has been chosen with care.

A Project Development

In addition to external factors, the vocabulary and style of a company’s documents are influenced by its corporate policies. Every major player has a vivid and instantly recognizable “verbal image” built from its slogan, mission statement, in-house terminology and a distinctive style of internal communications. The task of a competent translator is to not just convey the document’s meaning, but also communicate the company’s mindset, views and values to its target audience.

This is why at the start of a new client engagement, we always carefully analyze the client’s corporate document samples, understanding that large firms typically have proprietary, established principles of business writing.

We are committed to respecting our clients’ wishes and corporate style preferences, but we will always correct stylistic and grammatical errors if there are any to be found. With our wealth of translation and copyediting experience, we craft individual solutions for each client.
