With the development of global integration, more and more foreign products are pouring into the domestic market, and the corresponding product manuals also need to be translated into Chinese so that customers can understand them. Therefore, today I will introduce to you the quotation and precautions for product manual translation.
1. Factors affecting translation price:
The translation price is affected by many factors, including translation difficulty, language type, text length, etc. Different translation companies will also set prices based on their experience and service quality. Generally, the more words in the manual, the more favorable the quotation will be. In addition, if the translation of the manual involves scarce languages, such as Icelandic, Norwegian, etc., the translation price will be higher.
2. The price of product manual translation:
Product manuals are professional texts that require in-depth understanding of the product, so the translation price is relatively high. Taking English as an example, generally speaking, the translation price of English product manuals is more than RMB 150 per thousand words.
3. Precautions for product manual translation:
Before translating the manual, the translator needs to read carefully and accurately understand the meaning and purpose of the original text. During the translation process, we should strive to be concise and clear, avoid excessive modification, and follow the expression habits of the target language. In addition, the translator needs to strictly follow the format and layout requirements of the original text for translation, and adjust the characteristics of the target language to ensure neatness and beauty. In addition, the product or service information must be accurately conveyed to ensure that the sentences are smooth and easy to understand. Finally, after the translation is completed, proofreading and modification work is required to ensure that the product or service information is accurately conveyed and the sentences are smooth and easy to understand.
In short, the price of document translation by a translation company varies depending on factors such as language, difficulty, and text length, and the quotes of different translation companies will also be different. When choosing a manual translation company, customers should not only pay attention to the price issue, but also choose a company with relevant professional background and rich experience, so as to effectively ensure the quality of translation and service.
