Language Information
Spanish Translation
Spanish is the most widely spoken of the Romance Languages, evident both in the number of speakers and the number of countries for which it is the dominant language. Spoken in Spain and all of the South American countries besides Brazil, Spanish is also the national language in all of the Central American nations such as Mexico and El Salvador. Spanish is now widely spoken in the US southern states of Texas, California and New Mexico, where it is the co-official language thanks to a burgeoning Spanish community.
For a Spanish translation to be effective with a Spanish-speaking audience, it must take cultural differences which are evident among the many countries Spanish is spoken into account. Depending on the project and the target audience, the NAATI accredited, professional Spanish translation provided by IML can utilise different types of Spanish including: neutral Spanish, Latin American Spanish or Castilian Spanish. This allows the Spanish translation to be used seamlessly throughout various countries.
A professional, NAATI accredited, Spanish translator can also advise on whether the Spanish translation needs to be localised for a specific Spanish-speaking market.

French is another popular Romance Language. As well as being spoken in France, French is an official language in multilingual nations like Belgium, Canada and Switzerland. French is also widely spoken in many French colonial dependencies in Africa (e.g. Morocco and Algeria), The Caribbean (e.g. Haiti and Guadeloupe), The Pacific (e.g. New Caledonia and Tahiti) and South East Asia (e.g. Vietnam and Cambodia).

Italian Translation
Italian is considered by many to be the most beautiful of all languages. Besides being spoken in Italy, Italian is one of the official languages of Switzerland. Italian is spoken across the globe by an estimated 200 million people. Of all the Romance languages, Italian is the language closest to Latin and has always been important in all things cultural, with much great Italian literature, prose and theoretical writings translated into English.
There are many different Italian dialects which can vary considerably and make spoken communication difficult at times. Italian translation can reflect those variations in order to fit any particular market.

German Translation
German is one of the main international cultural languages, spoken by over 100 million people on a daily basis. Germany, Austria and Switzerland are the main exponents of the language and German also has close ties with Dutch and Flemish. A NAATI accredited translator will be able to translate into Austrian German, Swiss German, as well as High and Low German, as spoken in Germany.

Chinese Translation
There are two forms of written Chinese – Simplified Chinese (used in China, Singapore and Malaysia) and Traditional Chinese (used in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau and many overseas Chinese communities), but Simplified Chinese is gradually gaining popularity among overseas Chinese as more mainland Chinese emigrate and travel abroad.
With China’s steady rise as a commercial powerhouse, the Chinese translation to and from English of business documents has become commonplace. The choice of Simplified Chinese or Traditional Chinese is vital in the Chinese translation from English, the geopolitical situation of the target audience of the Chinese translation determining which version of the Chinese language is employed. IML's Chinese translators are able to assist with all sorts of documents, from standard identity documents to import permits and more complex and technical documents.

Japanese Translation
The Japanese language is the sixth most spoken language in the world. Japanese is a unique language as no definitive link between any other language can be established with Japanese. The Japanese language is distinct from Chinese and Korean, although the written form uses Chinese characters. Japanese uses three different writing systems of varied complexity, two of which are syllabic (hiragana and katekana) and relatively easy to learn with 50 characters each. On the other hand, Japanese characters known as kanji number in the many thousands and sentences are written vertically and begin on the right of the page. The divergence of Japanese from other language structures suggests that Japanese to English and English to Japanese translation and interpreting is vital for our greater understanding in the global community that we live in.

Russian Translation
Russian is the most important of the Slavic languages, with over 250 million people currently speaking Russian worldwide. Russian is also one of the prominent languages of culture with countless translations of Russian plays and classic novels can be found in English.
Written in the Cyrillic alphabet, the translation of documents from and to Russian has become vital to forge links in the Post-Cold War environment in which Russia has also become a business powerhouse.
