Step by Step Translation Walkthrough
At TJC Global, we realise how difficult the translation process can be, so we have created an easy step-by-step guide to ensure that you maximize the efficiency of your translation and get the best result possible.
Our 10 Golden Questions
Step 1: What languages will be used in the translation, (including dialects or variations)?
Step 2: What is the purpose of the translation; will it be used for legal proceedings, private use or publication etc…?
Step 3: What stage is the document for translation at…official document, rough draft or revision?
Step 4: What is the deadline for the translation, and do you think you can deliver?
Step 5: Are there any reference materials that you could use to help you in the translation process (especially for scientific or highly technical translations)?
Step 6: What format will the reference material be in (does your software support it) and has it been proofread for any errors or mistakes?
Step 7: Is the document authentic?
Step 8: Are there any other services required in addition to the translation, such as editing, proof reading, or other alterations?
Step 9: Are all parties are aware of any potential liability on the part of the translator or the translation itself?
Step 10: Have you contacted TJC Global with your translation needs or concerns?
