Our standard

Equivalence over literalness

01

Natural, not word-for-word

A text that truly reads as though written in the target language. German nested sentences are unpacked in English, nominal constructions rendered as verbal ones.

Literal
„The in the context of this study conducted empirical investigation …“
Equivalent
„The empirical analysis conducted for this study shows that …“
02

Terminological consistency

Each specialist term receives exactly one translation throughout the document. Deviations only where factually necessary – and then transparently flagged in a comment.

03

Scholarly register

No colloquial tone. Passive constructions, impersonal phrasing and hedging language („suggests that“) are rendered correctly into the target language.

04

Care with sources & institutions

Foreign-language original quotations remain in the original. Institution names are retained and explained on first occurrence – e.g. „Statistisches Bundesamt [Federal Statistical Office]“.
