---- Perhaps the greatest cultural and economic change we see in the coming years is the globalization of cultures and commerce.  This undeniable trend means that competent and professional language translations are now more important than ever. ----

----- Our goal at Aardvark Translation Services is to communicate your ideas, your message with clarity and polish.  Whatever the source, in whatever form, Aardvark can translate and edit into accurate, coherent text, with just the right intercultural "touch", precise top-level grammar, capturing the full meaning with substance and style. ----

We not only translate your message, we communicate it!

Our team members come from diverse career backgrounds, so no subject is too narrow or arcane. Language skills combined with rich intercultural life experiences make all the difference.  Our in-house and contract translators provide the highest level of professional translation, editing, and proofreading.  We sweat the details, offer on-time "no-excuses" delivery, all at a very economical price structure.

TRANSLATION ---- "Rule Nr. 1 in any translation is to hire the best!  Most content must be reworked for the specific audience and must "feel right" for that language - it should be conversational and use appropriate style and local expressions."

"The challenge is to produce a translation that is opaque, where your reader cannot "see the English" sitting behind the text that's supposed to be in their language.  The text must read naturally, effortlessly.  If it looks like a translation to the reader, it has failed."

Aardvark can service all your translation needs:

- promotional brochures, catalogs, and web sites
- business correspondence and annual reports
- technical manuals, educational materials
- legal documents and personal records
- historical, scientific and medical text
- academic and scholarly literature

CREATIVE ---- "Our range of services and skills extend beyond mere translation and editing.  Creative services such as catalog or web layout, editorial content creation, text revision, and copy writing are just some of the additional value-added creative services that Aardvark can offer.  We can even do voice-over video narration in over 20 languages."

Perhaps your document needs to be condensed or summarized.  Or maybe you need to create news announcements for multilingual release.  Whatever the project we're ready to assist from concept to completion, regardless of scope, difficulty, or timeline.

WEB LOCALIZATION ---- "Aardvark Translation Services can help you quickly and easily localize your Web site to create powerful, fluent, and expressive Web pages.  Our professional native-speaking translators, proofreaders, and editors check all content and graphics for grammar and style conflicts."

Sales copy and product content are reworked as necessary to retain spacing, file size and layout structure, while not compromising message and content.

We translate a Web site's visible text, as well as all the hidden tags and imbedded images.  If necessary, we re-code the HTML to make the translated site conform to content and site layout limitations due to language or culture.  The HTML code is itself re-checked to ensure it is fully operational.

At Aardvark you the customer are the most important ingredient to our success - and we treat you that way.

Call us for your next project.  You'll be glad you did!
