Translation Time

 

Translation time depends on the number of words, style of language (e.g., how much technical language or industry jargon) and proficiency of the translators. Our average translation speed is 1500-2000 words per day.

 

Here are some guidelines for translation of different sizes of documents:

 

Small documents (500 – 5,000 words)

We generally translate 1,500 - 2,000 words a day. With every project large and small, we perform a quality check to ensure that the document is error-free and the format has been maintained. Therefore, you can reasonably expect 2000 words to be completed in 48 hours. The earlier we receive your document, the better. And we appreciate it if you can consider this time frame when submitting your Quote Request.

 

Medium-size documents (5,000 to 10,000 words)

Should you require a short deadline, documents ranging from 5,000 to 10,000 words will likely need to be handled by several translators, otherwise a single translator will perform the job. To ensure consistency, we use special software tools. Two to three additional days may be necessary for verification. It is reasonable to expect the translation of a 10,000-word document within 7 days.

 

Large documents (10,000 words and beyond)

Thanks to our geographical distribution, we can complete large translation projects by working in teams. In such a scenario, each translator is assigned an additional task: project management, building a bilingual glossary, or some other aspect of your job. This comprehensive approach and close collaboration enable us to deliver superior results.
