Glossary Terminology
Translation
Project details
Description
What if I told you? When a translation company uses the unsuitable terminology, 30-40 percent of its effort is wasted. At Mtafsiri we don't waste our time or resources by translating the wrong items or translating them over and over. We use a Swahili glossary builder, terminology management, and translation memory, you can rest assured that your documents will be translated effortlessly, accurately and consistently.
A glossary is a set of standard terminology in the source language that is maintained by your firm. Additionally, the definitions of those terms or the official translations of those terms may be included in the document. Glossaries are an absolute necessity when working with highly technical or abstract concepts in any translation project
We've discovered that including a glossary at the start of a translation is a good approach to ensure that our client's most important Swahili phrases are translated correctly and consistently. It has also helped with future translations by allowing linguists know how certain Swahili words and phrases were used in the past.
We make certain that our client's Swahili translation glossary and terminology contains the following key items: Definitions, preferred translations, key terms, new vocabulary, and Swahili terms or phrases that shouldn't be translated.
A translation glossary can be an essential component of any company's translation strategy. And we have found that when used together with a style guide, it certainly makes the review process much quicker and simpler. Mtafsiri assists in the initial design of glossaries as well as the selection of standardized translations of key terminology. That way, you can be certain that your translation conveys exactly what you want it to say.
