Machine translation

A cutting-edge language service

Huge steps have been taken with machine translation technology, but it cannot produce the same quality that a professional translator does. However, if you need something translated quickly and cost-effectively, machine translation could be the right option for you, especially if you need very large amounts of text translated. Machine translation systems do make mistakes, which is why we recommend post-editing – professional proofreading carried out by one of our language experts in order to correct all of the mistakes in the machine-translated text.

We work with a number of different machine-translation systems. Give us a call and we can discuss which is the right one for you.

FAQ

What language services does Diction provide?

We provide the following services: editing, proofreading, translation, copywriting and language consultancy in over 30 languages. Our core competencies lie in banking and finance, law, marketing, the automotive industry, the hotel and tourism sectors, and haute horlogerie. Furthermore, we can work directly in your website’s CMS and optimise your layout in InDesign.

Do I need to send reference texts?

No, you don’t have to. However, it is a great help to us, and allows us to provide the best-possible language service, if we know as much as possible about your company language and style. This is especially true for copywriting, as it is very useful for our copywriter to know exactly how your brochure, website or headline should read. It will also allow our translators to adopt precisely the style you require. To sum up: it’s great if you can send us texts similar to the one you need us to work on, as this allows us to tailor our language services to your corporate language and standard terminology.
