English into Arabic professional
translation services, the secrets of what has made us the best in the market.
Almiaad
Lingua for Translation and Language Services was founded by two English into
Arabic professional translators for whom the demand for in the global market
increased and the number of returning clients was doubled. The expertise of the translator and the high
quality of work output were the main factors of success. However, for a translation company, the
requirements were more complex.
As
a leading provider in a global unstable market, the challenge of maintaining a
high number of clientele and serving professionally with a high quality of
translation product, while respecting deadlines and specific requirements is
the key to client satisfaction and good reputation. Almiaad Lingua has relied on transparency and
professionalism with its clients and staff in order to make every aspect of
work a success. For this purpose, the
need to identify the special demands of English into Arabic professional
translation was eminent.
People
in the Middle East as well as those form outside this region need English into
Arabic translation for a number of purposes which we had to identify before
setting up a section policy. This led us
to the identification of a set of market identification and a tailored
marketing research strategy. The profile
of actual customers enabled us to sketch what makes an accurate translation.
There
is one major fact which people in the translation industry have not been able
to identify. It is the importance of the
English into Arabic translation needs.
Statistics show that, although it is less significant than English into
French translation, it remains in high demand in global markets. The most obvious detail is that the number of
translators in the market working for this language pair is the largest by
far. The idea that the market is shared,
though unequally, by a very large number of translators shows how important
this fact is. Moreover, the diversity
and importance of clients who constantly need this pair, thanks to the region’s
economic weight and, reveal the actual importance and future perspectives for
this pair.
However,
the issue of quality has been the topic of a number of debates among clients
and within service providers. There is a
very serious problem with the linguistic and professional quality. As experts and professionals in the field, we
have suffered from this low quality; especially when we do proofreading. Clients who send us English into Arabic
already translated files to proofread are not usually aware that they had
handed their files to people whose expertise in Standard Arabic is below native
level, although the translator speaks Arabic as a mother tongue. The absence of quality in translation
certification and higher education institutions is a very alarming fact that
has made some translators’ work a real mess.
For
Almiaad Lingua the issue of accuracy in Arabic, as well as any other language
handled, has been taken into consideration right at the beginning. We decided to set up very strict recruitment,
follow up criteria and adequate handling of files. Apart from verified certification and work
experience, we had to expose any candidate to different types of texts in
various contexts. This is easier to
handle for in-house full time translators.
However, for a freelancer, the follow up and double checking/ proofreading
during the probation period usually enable us to decide on the level of trust
we can give to a professional Arabic translator working with us.
Our
clients in the Middle East can now rely on the expertise of our local team in
