Our expertise covers copywriting, translation, editing and
proofreading: we are confident, experienced and above all,
reliable. We translate into English and Afrikaans, from Dutch,
German and French. Specialisations include, amongst others:
Photography, Psychology, Marketing and Advertising, Hospitality
and Tourism.
Rendering text into a target language requires more than
just proficiency in two languages - cultural sensitivity,
sharp and creative writing skills and attention to detail
are vital tools of a good translator. These indispensable
skills are acquired only through immersion in the source
language culture, commitment to ongoing research and a passion
for words in any language.
Growing up in a multilingual, multicultural
society such as South Africa has given us an integral understanding
that language is more than just a coherent collection of
words - it is the ambassador of a culture. Living
abroad has not only deepened our understanding of cultural
sensitivity but has furthermore provided an extended immersion
in our source languages and their respective cultures.
