Technical Translations

Technical translations require special attention.

Is the ‘connector’ a plug, a fastener, or a link?

Precisely what does the ‘hook’ do?

Does ‘insert’ mean push, drop, slide, or roll into place?

Specialized terms and new uses for old equipment, emerging terminology and company-specific vocabulary make technical translation a demanding process.
