EXPRESS TRANSLATION SERVICE

Deep knowledge of your language, culture and sector

Whether it’s a contract for translation or a campaign for localisation, we handle any project type across a wide range of content and file formats. Our work is accurate, confidential, competitively priced and built around your business.

A linguist team matched to your project

Every translation has its own challenge and every field its own terminology, so we match subject specialists to your content and lock in consistency with client-specific glossaries, termbases and translation memories. Our work is human-led: qualified native speakers translate and technology supports them. Where machine translation genuinely fits the content, we offer full MTPE by trained post-editors in line with ISO 18587 — always disclosed, never a substitute we slip in quietly.

Quality at the heart of everything we do

We work to recognised industry quality standards, and our standard service follows the ISO 17100 process model: translation by a qualified native speaker followed by independent bilingual revision. We also offer multiple levels of service, scaling from straightforward draft translation up to multi-stage translation, revision and expert review for demanding sectors such as life sciences, legal and engineering.

One partner for the whole job

At LingoConsult, revision, localisation, MTPE, DTP and layout design all sit alongside translation in-house, so a single team with a shared understanding of your language and industry takes your content from source file to finished, publish-ready deliverable.

Speak your customers’ language. Go global.

Website, software, media or app — our localisation specialists carry your meaning into each target market, accounting for idiom, cultural references, conventions and sensitivities.
Localisation reaches well beyond text. Alongside translation it can involve adapting graphics, converting currencies, applying local formats for dates, times, addresses and telephone numbers, reconsidering colour choices and cultural references, and sometimes rethinking a product’s structure altogether. The goal is consistent: respect local sensitivities, avoid cultural missteps and enter the market on its own terms.

LingoConsult has the resources to deliver high-quality localisation across a wide range of content types and formats in 50+ languages.

Transcreation: the art of creative translation

Transcreation goes further than translation. Rather than rendering the words, it takes a concept in one language and rebuilds it from the ground up in another. It is now standard practice in global marketing and advertising, where campaigns have to cross cultures as well as languages — and it extends to the imagery in a creative message, making sure that too lands correctly in the target market.
Whether you’re introducing a brand to a new culture or taking a campaign into new markets, our creative linguists combine first-class language skills with genuine marketing instinct. We rebuild your concept as a message that is compelling and relevant locally, and that carries the same emotional weight as the original.

Quality assurance is about earning trust

We offer several service levels, and every translation goes through quality assurance matched to its purpose. For internal communication or personal use, an in-house check is enough. For legal instruments, medical documents or advertising, expert revision is essential.
Delivering text free of errors in grammar, style and formatting takes editors who are strong linguistically and fluent in the subject terminology.

LINGUISTIC REVISION
Spelling, grammar, punctuation and formatting corrected against the source, so the text reads naturally for the end user.
EXPERT REVIEW
A subject-matter expert (lawyer, physician, engineer) verifies terminology, abbreviations, consistency and completeness.
FINAL IN-HOUSE CHECK
Post-DTP proofread to catch any remaining typos, formatting or layout issues.

When speed is everything

If a document simply has to be translated fast and accurately, we can move. With more than 600 linguists on call and a workflow built for turnaround, we meet the tightest deadlines without compromising quality.

When speed is the priority, simply email us your files. A project manager will reply within minutes.

You only get one first impression

A great translation can still fall flat if the content isn’t presented properly. Multilingual desktop publishing is essential to any design-led project, and because we handle both the translation and the typesetting, localisation stays seamless from start to finish.
Translated text is rarely the same length as the source, so our DTP designers adjust layout, graphics and typography consistently and appropriately for each language — including right-to-left and CJK scripts.
We have extensive experience formatting every kind of content, from user manuals and product catalogues to e-books and brochures.
