8) What is a "good" translation?
A good translation is one which seamlessly conveys the original language text accurately to another language of preference, without changing the actual meaning of the original text. It requires a fair amount of skill, experience and high level of precision to come up with a 'good' translation; which we at Language Partners are proud to deliver.

9) What is the difference between an interpreter and a language translator?
Although both these professionals are linguist and deal with translations, a 'translator' is one who translates text from a source language to another in writing. While an 'interpreter' translates a language orally when one is speaking for the rest of the foreign language audience to understand.

10) What is the difference between consecutive interpretation and simultaneous interpretation?
In consecutive interpretation, the speaker takes a pause after saying a few sentences and allows the interpreter to interpret those sentences before carrying on with the next sentences. In simultaneous interpretation, the interpreter interprets simultaneously as the speaker speaks or delivers speeches, mostly used for high-level conferences.

11) What is your turnaround time for translations?
Language Partners has its team of highly skilled professionals who work round-the-clock to deliver exceptional quality translations with a fast turnaround. From processing quotation in 20 minutes to project completion in a day's time, we however, do not compromise on quality at any costs.

12) Is a more expensive translation inevitably a better one?
Probably yes, in many cases. Sometimes, people cannot restrain the attraction of cheap translation rates and mess up their projects and reputation with below average translations done by unskilled professionals. Therefore, reasonable rates as per industry standards are always a wise investment, saving time and money.

13) I'm a qualified and experienced translator. Can I partner with Language Partners?
Yes, we welcome qualified, skilled and experienced translators, interpreters, copywriters, editors, voice over professionals and DTP professionals to partner with us. Please send us your resume at HR@languagepartners.net
