A FEW FACTS ABOUT CHINESE

Why do you need professional Chinese translators?

There’s nothing more to say about Chinese. It’s an incredibly huge market with tons of potential for businesses worldwide. Being the 2nd-largest economy in the world, it is a promising land for companies in any industry to enter and establish their presence. Its 2-billion population is also willing to experience the diversity that foreign companies bring to their country.

However, Chinese written language is vastly different from other Romance languages, most notably English. The grammar, pronunciation, and usage also vary immensely. That’s not to mention the Chinese culture is almost the opposite of that in Western countries. These tremendous differences present numerous challenges to foreign businesses when entering this seemingly easy and promising market.

Another challenge that we face is that Chinese is divided into 2 main types: Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese. Simplified Chinese is a simpler version of Traditional Chinese. It was developed in the 20th century in an attempt to increase literacy. Today, Simplified Chinese is primarily used in the Mainland, while Traditional Chinese is more prevalent in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau, and other large Chinese-speaking communities. These 2 branches are different in a lot of ways, so knowing the type of Chinese your readers/audience use is crucial when you want to translate to and from Chinese.

However, with the help of native translators of pTranslate, it’s entirely possible. We can translate a wide range of documents in many industries to and from Chinese for your business, and, of course, the quality will always be beyond your expectations.

Chinese Business Translation Service

Globalization is accelerating at an incredible speed. We have never lived in such an interconnected world, and the need for international communication is higher than ever.

Chinese is the world’s second-largest economy, only after the US. Being the opposing superpower to the US, China offers great opportunities as well as challenges for businesses worldwide. A lot of US businesses have faced a lot of obstacles when entering Chinese markets due to the vast cultural and language differences between the 2 countries.

Chinese Technical Translation Service

China is the “manufacturing hub of the world”. Its low labor cost, low tax, relaxed regulations, competitive currency policies, and strong business ecosystem have made China the number one destination to build factories of businesses worldwide and propelled it to be the 2nd strongest economy in the world. Along with the growth of China’s economy is the demand for high-quality translation for engineering and technical content.

There will be a lot of technical content written in Chinese, including engineering, manufacturing, automotive, and electronics content. We need to accurately translate these documents to meet safety/operational standards of countries around the world. Well-written and well-translated Chinese content also helps buyers/users of these products/services understand better their functionality and other technical specifications.

At pTranslate, we understand that demand, and have developed a team of only professionals to handle your Chinese technical translation projects. They’re all proficient users of both languages you want to translate, and, most importantly, they have the industry expertise required to understand the content of your technical writings.

Have a complex Chinese translation project?

Sometimes you have a big or complex project that requires constant communication in the translation process.

Feel free to tell us all of your requirements for the project. We want to make sure that everything meets your expectations.

Chinese Legal Translation Service

Law doesn’t allow any room for error. Every single word has to be exact. Mistranslation can cause a lot of negative consequences. In addition to that, the legal environment in China differs from that in the US and other English-speaking countries a lot. The Chinese language is also quite complicated. We need to find professionals who understand the legal environment of both countries AND have enough linguistic capabilities to translate the content.

Understanding your demand, pTranslate has employed hundreds of fully qualified Chinese legal translators to handle all of these complex and sensitive translation projects. Your confidentiality will be respected, as all of our translators are bound by a commercial confidentiality and corporate nondisclosure agreement to protect your information.

Chinese Software and Website Localization Service

Localization is not just about translating the content. It is also about making the content culturally, politically, and technologically appropriate. If you want to reach Chinese customers and users, you have to localize your website, software, application, eLearning course, CRM, ERP, or game, so that Chinese users can understand AND relate to it.

It’s not simple to be culturally relevant while localizing a product. We have to take into account a lot of cultural aspects in the localized content, including cultural references, images, symbols, sense of humor, slangs, units of measurement, sometimes even colors and certain inappropriate numbers. Chinese is a completely different language from English, so we also have to make adjustments to the User Interface to accommodate for the changes in the text. If not properly accounted for in the process, the final product can be unpleasant to the users’ eyes.

However, with the help of pTranslate’s cultural and linguistic experts, everything is entirely possible. We leverage the power of advanced technology, translation memory, and terminology glossary to seamlessly adapt your innovations to Chinese/English, and bring them to your customers in the most engaging ways.

Chinese Literary Translation Service

Literature speaks to all souls. It is the highest use of written language to convey insights and inspire people for generations. However, the language barriers might prevent authors from bringing those ideas to a larger audience. That’s why we need a professional literary translator to bring the world together and connect readers around the globe.

pTranslate wants to help you bring your literary work, novel, memoir, or non-fiction to the world. Chinese is rich with its idiomatic expressions, so translating those to English is also a challenging task. Similarly, finding ways to express English phrases in Chinese requires a lot of creativity and knowledge. Our Chinese literary translators will cherry-pick from their rich Chinese vocabulary the most suitable words and phrases to beautifully express your thoughts while retaining as much the original “soul” of your writing as possible.
