The Translator Working on Your Legal Document
One of the most critical areas of work done by a translator concerns legal documents. We have a team of specialist translators for legal documents who can provide definitive translations which can be notarised in Flemish if required. This will give them the same legal status as the original English legal document.
Colloquial differences between English and Flemish which may be awkward but acceptable in a tourist brochure could spell disaster in a legal document. Phrases with a clearly defined legal meaning in English may have a completely different one if translated literally into Flemish. The translator must have current knowledge of both English and Flemish law and legal language.
Specialist knowledge on the part of the translator is as important as it is to the
writer of the original document. For example, employing a general scientist to
translate a mathematical paper risks errors of terminology which may be unnoticeable
to lay readers but transparently obvious to Flemish mathematicians. As these are
obviously the intended audience, the slightest error would damage your credibility.
We will work with you to ensure our translator understands your English legal document
and our Flemish translator writes in a style appropriate to your target audience.
Choosing Your English - Flemish Translators
The right choice of English - Flemish translator is critical to your venture. We use
professional translators who work only in their mother tongue and in specialist
fields. English - Flemish translators will be native Flemish speakers equally
fluent in English. Your translated legal document should not give any indication
that it was ever written in English at all. A skilled translator will make it
read like an original Flemish legal document. This involves such considerations as
that English idioms and metaphors should not be translated at all. They should be
replaced by the corresponding Flemish phrases. The correct idioms of just five or
ten years ago may sound completely out of place today. Language changes by the day,
and only Flemish translators continually immersed in Flemish life and culture will
be able to keep up with such trends.
English - Flemish Translator Requirements
Your English - Flemish legal document should be concise, accurate, and comprehensible. It is
easy to for an unskilled translator to make a word-for-word translation from English
to Flemish and produce a legal document which is completely unintelligible. We have all laughed at
instructions which have been translated from Flemish to something which
bears only a passing resemblance to English. Do not expose your company to the kind
of ridicule that use of poor legal documents provokes. The small saving you make on the
translator's fees will be only a fraction of what you lose in credibility and sales.
