When you need to translate your documentation into/from the Swedish language it’s important to select the right translator. LanguageTran has a team of world-class Swedish translators that offer excellence in Swedish translations, whether business translations, technical and scientific translations, legal translations or any other type of project.

Qualities of a good Swedish translator

Simply being able to speak Swedish and a second language does not make a professional Swedish translator. In addition to being fluent in two languages, training in linguistics and professional expertise in a given field are a must. LanguageTran expects the following qualities from its Swedish team members.

1. Native Swedish Speakers

A professional translator must necessarily be a native speaker of the target language. If the work is going into Swedish, the translator must be aware of the fine differences between Standard Swedish and the language spoken by rural populations and other Swedish populations in Finland. Also, although Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish are mutually intelligible and may be actually considered dialects of a common Scandinavian language, due to the intense rivalry between Denmark and Sweden in the 16th and 17th centuries, and the nationalist ideas of the 19th and 20th centuries, the languages currently have separate spellings, dictionaries, grammars and regulatory bodies. Considering the minute differences involved, professional Swedish translators must be experts in all the particulars of the language and the regional differences of the spoken language.

2. Excel as writers

A good translation into Swedish can never be taken word-for-word out of a bilingual dictionary. A good Swedish translator, besides having a mastery of the grammar and vocabulary of the language, must be able to adapt the text to sound pleasingly and as if were originally written in the language. Any regional differences of expression must be well considered according to the demands of the text.

3. Detail oriented

All members of our translation team have assuredly years of experience delivering quality translations with the greatest regard for detail. As the saying goes, “the devil is in the detail”. Any translation can “sort of” convey the message and intent. But when the message and presentation really matter, the right language vendor will give careful attention to every detail of grammar, diction, usage, style and format.

4. Highly trained

To be eligible for our team of translators, our Swedish translator must be a professional in the field with years of experience. If a translation project deals with legal documents, for instance, the translator chosen by LanguageTran might have been a Swedish court translator or have extensive legal experience. We require a minimum of three years of professional experience as linguists and in the field of specialization.

5. Specialization

Broad fields such as technical, medical, or legal have many subfields, and it is important in many cases for a Swedish translators to have experience translating texts in the subject matter of each particular project. Whether it is software licensing contracts or genetic research, the translator chosen by LanguageTran will have the experience and vocabulary needed to render high quality work.
