About the Spanish Language

As the third most widely spoken language world-wide, after English and Mandarin, the Spanish language is indeed important to most companies serving multicultural and international communities. For US based companies the Spanish-speaking market is particularly important  since Latin America stands as its single most important export market-region and its own Hispanic population represents a significant domestic market. Many companies, governments and institutions need to use Spanish translation companies to meet their ever increasing biligual demands.

Consider:

About 400 million people speak Spanish worldwide

Spanish is the official language in 22 countries, including Mexico ,  Argentina , Spain and Costa Rica .

The Spanish language is used extensively across , Europe, Asia and Africa
Spanish has become the unofficial second language in the which has more than 25 million Spanish-speakers at home

The World has hundreds of Spanish newspapers, magazines, and publishers

Communicating in Spanish with clients, stockholders and employees is a strategic decision that most businesses and institutions need to consider. Simply put, they cannot afford to ignore these attractive markets.

Spanish Dialects

As widely-spoken language with a long history, the Spanish language has developed many local dialects. This offers both opportunities and challenges when companies want to do business with the Spanish-speaking world. The opportunity is the ability to communicate in a single language with four hundred million people. Spanish translators find that the challenge is being sufficiently sensitive to the many different idiomatic expressions.

Why is Spanish longer than English

There are several grammatical reasons which justify this expansion factor when translating from English to Spanish . For instance, Spanish translators often have to use two, three or even more words to translate a single English compound word. In general, a professional Spanish translation will be fifteen percent longer than its English version.
