Wherever you go in the world, things will be valued differently. This reaches beyond the value of a dollar and what items cost, into cultural feelings and social norms. For example, while it may be okay in some countries to have an ad featuring a woman lounging in a swim suit, it will not be accepted in others.

Our language experts do more for the advertising industry than just translate, they can also identify cultural no-no’s and translate the text in an acceptable way or alert the client before the ad is distributed to the wrong areas when the problem is something that cannot be easily substituted, such as a photo.

We can offer you this kind of expert evaluation because we hire language experts that know the language and live in the culture; not those who learned the language in adulthood at a university and spent little time living among the people. If you need an ad translated into Russian, you will be paired with a language expert who was raised with the language, the people, and the culture.

Whether you need a magazine ad, commercial script, or billboard translated, our language experts can translate your project with impact and clarity, while keeping in tune with the local word usage and truly adapting your materials to the culture.
