Editing & Proofreading

In addition to the translation of documents, we also offer editing and proofreading of texts that have been translated by the client or by third-party translators or agencies. We inform the client immediately if we feel that his translation does not meet our professional quality standards. The client can then decide whether he wants us to proceed with proofreading the translation or whether to translate the text from scratch all over again. Proofreading and editing services are charged on an hourly basis.

How We Work

Each translation project starts with an evaluation of the text: Scope of translation, type of text, field of expertise, language pair (source language/target language(s), etc. Then the project is assigned to a team of two professional translators: the first translator translates the document and the second reviews the translation for accuracy and readability. Each translation is proofread twice: first, by the translator and second, by the editor assigned to this project.

Language is what makes us human, what distinguishes us from animals on the one hand and machines on the other, what makes us self-conscious beings, capable of art, science, the whole of civilisation. It is the key to understanding everything.
