Highly experienced translators

NN Translations’ experienced translators have the necessary skills to deliver reliable translations every time.

They all hold university degrees or diplomas in linguistics, have substantial experience in the medical and pharmaceutical sectors and translate only into their native tongue.

Furthermore, they are all members of a professional linguistic association such as The Chartered Institute of Linguists (CIOL), The Institute of Translation and Interpreting (ITI), The American Translators Association (ATA), or The International Association of Professional Translators and Interpreters (IAPTI) or of medical associations such as the European Medical Writers Association.

Linguistically correct translations

To reliably produce accurate translations, our team ensures the copy is translated accordingly for target audiences.

Using the latest technology and the most current versions of advanced translation software (CAT tools), we aim to deliver high-quality work while ensuring confidentiality and offering support and advice on the phone or in-person when needed.

We conduct careful research using dictionaries glossaries, reference books and internet databases, consulting with subject matter experts when necessary and listen carefully to client instructions, striving to implement them precisely.

Quality assurance

Our translation and checking process is rigorous, and we consider a second pair of eyes to be a necessity for all medical and pharmaceutical translations.

Every translation we do in this sector is edited and proofread by a second proficient translator. Their role as an editor is to check the content and suggest any improvements that could enhance the translation.

Proofreading involves checking the finished product for any negligible errors in grammar, or irregularities in structuring or terminology.

Editing and proofreading services

During editing and proofreading, we pay close attention to the following potential issues within a text:

• Spelling, grammatical or punctuation errors
• Formatting or layout errors or inconsistencies
• Terminology and stylistic inconsistencies
• Cultural adaption and localised errors
• Translation errors

When it comes to translating the Balkan languages or any other European language, our work is unrivalled in matching the translation to the original in terms of meaning, always carried out with impeccable style and form.

Our approach assures clients in the knowledge that your translation project will be of the highest possible quality and will set your company apart from its competitors. Save yourself time and invest in your company’s image today by working with one of our professional linguists.
