What services can a professional translation company provide?
Translation companies are an industry that many people have heard of, but do not fully understand the content of their business. Although you may know that translation companies generally do translation, there are many different types of translation itself. Today, let's take a closer look at the main translation services provided by translation companies and their charging standards.
Translation company translation services
1. Document translation
Document translations usually include driver's licenses, academic certificates, skill certificates, professional qualification certificates, etc. The content of this type of translation is relatively brief and the translation difficulty is relatively low, but because it involves personal documents, translation companies usually do not charge per thousand words, but charge per document. The specific fee will vary depending on the type of language to be translated.
2. Corporate document translation
This type of translation includes corporate bids, contracts, product manuals and other documents, and translation companies often receive such orders. In general, the translation fee is charged per thousand words, and the specific unit price will be determined according to the type of translation language and the difficulty of translation. For example, translating a high-tech product manual is more difficult and the cost will naturally be higher; and for translations in some niche languages, the cost is usually higher.
Interpretation services provided by translation companies
1. Simultaneous interpretation and consecutive interpretation
Although simultaneous interpretation and consecutive interpretation are somewhat similar, the difficulty of translation varies greatly. Simultaneous interpretation means that the interpreter interprets while listening to the speaker, while consecutive interpretation means that the interpreter interprets after the speaker pauses. Since simultaneous interpretation requires higher professional skills and reaction speed of the interpreter, the cost of simultaneous interpretation is usually higher than that of consecutive interpretation. Generally speaking, the charge for simultaneous interpretation is between 600 and 1,000 yuan per hour, while the charge for consecutive interpretation is between 400 and 800 yuan per hour. The specific cost will be determined according to the language type and translation scale of the interpretation.
2. Accompanying and conference interpretation
Compared with simultaneous interpretation and consecutive interpretation, the work intensity of accompanying interpretation is slightly lower, but the content involved is more extensive. The interpreter needs to respond to different translation needs at any time, especially in some business activities, exhibition sites or cocktail parties. Accompanying interpretation requires the interpreter to have not only strong language skills, but also the ability to flexibly respond to various emergencies, especially tour guide translation services.
