The Importance of Distinguishing Variations in Spanish Translations

Spain Spanish, or European Spanish, refers to the language spoken in Spain, while Latin American Spanish refers to the regions in Central and South America, including Peru, Colombia, Chile, and Argentina. US Spanish is a complex combination of both Latin American Spanish as well as Spain Spanish, as it refers to the large Latin and Hispanic populations spread across the United States, with its own unique differences in cultural expressions and varying linguistic styles.  With so many varying dialects of Spanish, International Spanish was conceptualized to be a neutral version of Spanish, specifically for professional translation services. The distinctions between the languages of target Spanish, lack of clarity in the target dialect is both expensive as well as time consuming. The importance of distinguishing what dialect of Spanish a client requires the target translation to be in is critical for the success of the localized product or service due to the cultural differences in each region.

While in some ways the dialects of Spain Spanish, Latin American Spanish, US Spanish, and International Spanish are similar, they are also different in complex and impactful ways. Variations in addressing people and objects, grammatical tenses, overall pronunciation, and local vocabulary all contribute to high-quality Spanish translations and overall success of the product or service entering the Spanish-speaking target market.
