A technological breakthrough, invention, discovery cannot be tied to one country. The same car, officially first designed in 1886 by Karl Benz, was not the first at all. The entire decade of the newspaper different countries Europe was full of notes about how smoking “self-running strollers” were leaving various garages.

And about who first created the remote control remote control, there is still controversy. The technology is simultaneously patented in the USA, Germany and the UK. The difference in dates is only a few days.

In this regard, the progress of technology and technology can be characterized as an international movement forward. And where representatives of different countries are involved in the case, a special role is played by translation agency – a link of communication between speakers of different languages.

Technical Translation Tools

Everything indicates the high requirements for such a participant in the process - his importance in promoting new technologies, the complexity and even novelty of the material with which he works, the abundance of terminology. Yes, a technical translation specialist must be a master in two areas at once - linguistic and technical. In addition, he must be fluent in the rich technical translation tools:

  • Inversion (rearrangement of words contrary to the rules of grammar), with the help of which important points are highlighted.
  • Terminology in a given area, set out in relevant manuals, reference books, and scientific works.
  • Special forms of language and constructions - passive phrases, impersonal verbs, impersonal definitions, etc.

Responsibility area of ​​a technical translator

The field of science and technology in which it operates technical translator , sets key features result:

  • In the metallurgy, oil and petrochemical industries, a huge number of calculations are used with abbreviations and terms from Latin or old Greek.
  • In the IT field, new concepts appear, which can vary greatly in different languages.
  • In aviation, automotive, and instrument making there is an incredible number of diagrams, drawings, descriptions, and instructions with their own stable structure. Here the priority is the accuracy of presentation without loss of information.

A specialist who performs translation of large texts from English into Russian , must be able to work with a data array and consult reference books. In this case, as when working with short notes, annotations, design materials, he is required to have exceptional command of both languages ​​and a clear understanding of the area to which the information is devoted. Plus, adherence to the 4 principles of technical translation - impersonality, terminological literacy, accuracy and unemotionality.

Types of technical translation

In a global sense, technical translation means one of two things:

  • Work with special scientific and technical materials - manuals, reference books, diagrams, drawings, etc.
  • Professional translation of technical texts – the relevant part of the contract for the production or supply of equipment, instructions, annotations, design packages.

In both directions, translation can be oral or written, full or partial. In the latter case, we are talking about abstract, annotative “translations” of material from one language to another with adaptation, according to accepted standards, of scientific terminology.

Price for translation of technical texts

An expert approach is the basis of technical translation. It sets the quality of the result, but makes it very difficult to place cost emphasis. Yes, we can't say for sure how much does translation into english cost? any technical text. But we can guarantee that our price will be justified by the quality and speed of the result.

Because the success of the entire enterprise depends on the timing of the translation - the launch of new equipment, the conclusion of a trade contract, the development of investments. We understand this, and our customers have already appreciated it.

We translate:

  • - instructions for the equipment
  • - documents on construction projects
  • - specifications
  • - standards and regulations
  • - equipment descriptions
  • - drawings, plans, diagrams

Technical translation is a translation used to exchange specific technical information between people who speak different languages. It is based on a formal-logical style, characterized by precision, unemotionality and impersonality. Therefore the translator cannot add lyrical digressions or paraphrase the text. Areas that fall under the technical category require a deep dive into the topic. The translator must be fully oriented in this area, know its inherent terms, figures of speech, and professional jargon. He must understand what needs to be translated and what can be left behind the scenes without compromising the information content.

Expert opinion

Danilina Olga

Head of Technical Translation Department

1. Technical translation should be trusted only to trusted specialists. An ordinary translator cannot know all the terms and understand every topic. If he makes a mistake or writes something wrong, your reputation will suffer.

Therefore, for each translation we select a specialist with specialized education and experience in the relevant field.

2. It is important to use quantities correctly so that your audience is comfortable. For example, in the USA distance is measured in miles, and in Russia - in kilometers. If you indicate miles in a Russian-language document, the reader will have to convert them to kilometers using a calculator.

We will find out for which audience the translation is needed. We advise which values ​​to use for a specific country and specific readers.

3. Technical text can have a complex structure: tables, graphs, illustrations, multi-column layout. We not only translate the document, but also type it up while maintaining the original structure.

4. If a specialist is working on a lengthy document, he may use several translation options for the same term. As a result, the document is difficult to read and confusion arises.

We make up terminological dictionary for each project and stick to it. Each term, abbreviation, abbreviation has only one translation. Therefore, it is easy for readers to understand.

When translating technical texts, you should understand the complexity and responsibility of this type of work. Therefore, specialists of the highest qualifications, true professionals in this field, are allowed to perform them. Our translation agency offers specialists of the specified level who can translate technical documents of any complexity at the highest level, within the deadlines exactly specified by the customer.

Currently, the translation agency provides translation services in the following areas:

  • Scientific literature and periodicals.
  • Documentation.
  • Equipment passports, certificates and patents.
  • Instructions and user manuals, with all accompanying documentation.
  • Drawings and engineering plans.

There is no point in entrusting technical translations to amateurs, or to those translators who are just starting their labor activity, since it is unrealistic to competently translate English technical texts that contain complex scientific terms and abbreviations without having the appropriate special knowledge. It is necessary to take into account that when translating articles or scientific and technical texts, a formal and logical style is implied; accuracy of the wording and the requirements that are used are required. Basic linguistic education alone is far from sufficient for high-quality work with highly specialized material. In this regard, some research and production companies are staffed with specialists who translate documents necessary for the enterprise at a professional level. For small companies Keeping a specialized translator on staff is quite burdensome, which suggests ordering technical translation services from specialized translation agencies.
