A specialist translator is a professional who has specific experience and knowledge in a specific area. They have a perfect knowledge of the terminology and language, which enables them to produce high-quality translations on that subject.
Types of specialist translation
Specialist translation or transcreation is especially important when translating sensitive documents of a legal, medical, or business nature, as these areas use specific terms that need to be known and translated into the target language.
The following shows some of the different types of specialist translation:
- Technical translation: engineering, industrial manufacturing, chemical industry, patents, electronics, etc.
- Legal translation: company statutes, contracts, lawsuits, licences, etc.
- Medical translation: pharmaceutical, medical equipment, medical reports, clinical studies, etc.
- Financial translation: financial studies, audit reports, business reports, etc.
- Commercial translation: marketing, advertising, food industry, tourism, etc.
For example: a translator who specialises in medical translation can translate a medical report into another language. Medical reports are particularly complex documents because they describe illnesses, symptoms, and treatments. The accuracy of such translations can be key to a patient's health.
