PROFESSIONAL TRANSLATION SERVICES AND SOME IMPORTANT FACTS
As far as the 'professional translation services' is concerned, there are some important facts which cannot be ignored at all as they assume immense significance in terms of quality, confidentiality and timely delivery of the project.
When we talk about hiring a translation agency, it is a very challenging job that nobody can handle easily. Though, you can contact a translation agency and assign your project but what follows is unexpected. For example, there is no assurance you will get the project on time under your budget and of course a quality work.
Translation is a huge business due to which lots of linguists are jumping into this field expecting big projects and quick money. On one hand, translators can work from any part of the world and on other hand; they get money for their quality time.
Translation business is developing day by day so people always think of how to make a career in translation for life time.
New companies and agencies dealing in different kinds of products and services understand the importance of translation as the same information translated into a couple of more languages about a particular product or services can access to different regions and locations while creating a new chain of customers and clients.
Moreover, social media is playing a vital role in spreading news about new business ventures so obviously companies need to provide information on social networking sites in all languages.
Social media is being used as a great marketing tool. Translation companies with new and latest social media marketing strategy can reach more customers and clients resulting in big projects and better business opportunities.
There was a time when the translation was limited to some religious books only; there were very unique languages such as Persian, Arabic and Sanskrit etc spoken and written in India. Nowadays, every kind of content is translated in not only local languages but in foreign languages also, whether it is a religious book, science & technology, course material, advertisements, business strategies etc.

With changing time and trends, the translation industry requires a translator to be well-qualified in a particular subject as each subject is based on technical terminology; for example, a skilled doctor who has vast experience of medicines, pharmacy and surgery is not competent to understand legal terminology and the same goes with a lawyer.
A lawyer can practice well in a court and give better argument against any accusation but he can't administer a simple medicine to a patient.
Translation agencies keep all these important facts in their records and they have specific database of each translator and based on that database translation job is assigned to them accordingly.
For example, an Arab who has graduated in Arabic literature can speak, write and understand Arabic language better than non-Arab as Arabic is his mother tongue, still he can't translate a medical document from English into Arabic. Because he is not aware of medical terminology used in medical document since medical terminology is quite different than Arabic literature.
So you can understand this huge difference which can play a vital role in Arabic translation. If you have any document which you need to get it translated then keep all the important facts in your mind as ignoring these facts will result in negative impacts on your project.
