EU Translations

CSOFT’s EU translations and communication solutions help companies entering and expanding from the European Union market compete and succeed across languages

With 24 languages established as official languages of the European Union (EU) and even more being considered additions, EU translations are essential for companies and organizations looking to do business in Europe. Linguistic accuracy, in-depth cultural understanding, subject matter expertise, and localization best practices are necessary to ensure success for any product or service entering the local market. Additionally, high-quality, consistent localization solutions for any language spoken by an EU member state require advanced AI translation technology combined with native, in-country linguists for a quick turnaround time.

Formally established in 1993 by the Maastricht Treaty, the European Union initially comprised of the document’s twelve signatories: Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, and The United Kingdom. Over the past thirty years, several member states have left, but many others have joined, with 27 countries currently acting as members of the Union. The EU contains over 5% of the world’s population and is the world’s third-biggest economy, representing one-sixth of the world’s global domestic product (GDP). As such, the EU acts as one of the world’s most powerful regulatory bodies, with exacting production and safety standards that must be adhered to in order to enter the market of any given member state.

Providing accurate and clear translations for EU member states isn’t just a business best practice; it is required by EU law that many supporting documents for a product must be translated into all of the languages spoken in that specific territory. With so many different cultural nuances that vary across regions, the importance of understanding local communities is critical for ensuring success in whatever product or service is entering the market. Whether you are seeking EU-to-English translations or English-to-EU translations, ensuring the cultural appropriateness and local sophistication of every project entering or expanding from the EU market is essential.

Through our in-country, subject matter expert linguists, and with over 20 years of experience, CSOFT understands the importance of distinguishing different dialects of of languages spoken within the EU depending on the project.

Professional and Accurate Gagauz Translations

Gagauz was formalized as a written language in 1957 and has undergone several changes to its alphabet over the last century. Before its standardization, it was written using characters from the Greek alphabet before switching to Cyrillic following its establishment. In 1993, the Republic of Moldova’s Parliament established that the Latin alphabet would be used, but three years later, in 1996, another act was passed that created a new alphabet based on modern Turkish, with three unique characters to distinguish the language from its nearby relatives.

As Gagauz-speaking peoples are surrounded by similar language groups and with the changes it has undergone since its formalization, it is essential for any business or service entering the Moldovian market to have highly accurate translated materials localized to the target audience’s needs. Whether you are seeking Gagauz-to-English translations or English-to-Gagauz translations, ensuring the cultural appropriateness and local sophistication of every project entering or expanding from the Gagauzian market is essential.

Through our in-country, subject matter expert linguists, and with over 20 years of experience, CSOFT understands the importance of distinguishing Gagauz from its related languages depending on the project.
