Legal & financial translation

Our translation service

Translations serve different purposes and need varying degrees of attention. Choose the right service standard to get the optimum balance of speed and cost to meet each need.

Reference standard
Most suitable for internal use, reference standard documents are translated and proofed by mother tongue legal specialists and tested for accuracy.

Publication standard
Any text prepared for publication to a wider audience needs an additional editorial proof by a second language and subject specialist to ensure the highest standards of construction as well as accuracy. The finished piece should be as crisp and flow as well as the original.

Speechmarks

We're delighted to announce the fourth issue of "speechmarks", our tribute to the richness and endless variation of the English language!

Our autumn issue leads with an analysis of the (mis)use of multiple negatives. Multiple negation is used so frequently in the English language and it can take a lot of effort to unravel the sentence only to discover the meaning is far from the intention. Nevertheless, the human brain seems able to pick up the intention and ignore the superfluous negation.

Why not take a moment to try our logic teaser to test your skills in reasoning?

The second article takes a closer look at writing styles and the use of the passive and active voice. The active voice can make a translation read more naturally, like an original piece of writing whereas the passive can give the text a sense of authority and the appearance of fact-based discourse. The selection will, in most cases, depend on the style of the source text and the target audience.

If you are new to "speechmarks" and would like a copy of previous newsletters or to ensure that your name is on our mailing list for the next issue, please email us at
speechmarks@templetranslations.com.

We hope that you find our autumn edition of "speechmarks" entertaining and insightful; if there are any areas of language you'd like us to investigate or include in future issues we'd be glad to receive your suggestions. And perhaps next time you need an authoritative language service, our name will be the first to pop into mind.
