\nAfter 30+ years in the language business, the most common question people ask is \u201cHow much do translations cost?\u201d Without receiving specifics, that is like asking, \u201cHow much does a car cost?\u201d Answer: As with a car, it all depends. Do you want a clunker that simply runs or a car that runs well and reflects your personality?In the same way, a translation project can simply be translated, or it can be translated correctly. Your projects can be done quickly and cheaply using only software or amateur linguists, or they can be done rapidly and accurately using professional translators.A huge language agency recently came to us to subcontract a large project, translating hundreds of pages about the oil industry into Japanese. Japanese happens to be among the most expensive languages to translate and oil\/gas\/energy has its own specialized terminology. This company offered to pay us at a rate that would have forced us to employ low cost, unqualified, non-professionals such as part-time practitioners, students, or expatriate spouses in places like India and China. Other language agencies might have accepted the project and delivered a final product commensurate with the budget they were given. We passed on the project because our guaranteed level of quality could not be achieved at such a discounted rate. If you have a simple translation project, for internal use only for example, we can translate it using our machine-only solution (Auerbach Automated Translation<\/a>) for pennies per word \u2026 with or without professional editing. If your project is to be distributed to customers, business partners or the public and it must be 100% accurate, you merit our higher-level service at a very reasonable rate. Auerbach\u2019s<\/a> stable of language professionals have master\u2019s or equivalent degrees, specialize in your industry terminology, employ cultural adaptation in their work, and translate exclusively into their native language.We take pride in serving clients who appreciate value, who welcome award-winning personal service, and who want to maintain their sterling reputations.
