French Translation Services

Thinking about translating your document into French? Need a French interpreter for a meeting? Having trouble communicating with your French market? Syntacta can help with all this and more.

Many global companies trust Syntacta to get their French translations right. This is because we work with a network of dependable French translators who are qualified and experienced and share our passion for quality and customer service. They also work only into their mother tongue.

By translating your documents into French, you have the potential to reach up to around 130 million French speakers around the world. As well as being spoken in France, French is recognised as an official language in Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Canada, and number of African countries.

However, French can vary from country to country. So for example, if you are targeting a Canadian audience, a native speaker of France may not be aware of the intricate differences of the two forms of the language. Similarly with Swiss French and Belgian French – a native of France probably wouldn’t be suitable. The same would be true if a French Canadian translated a document for use in France. It may be generally understood, but would sound odd to a French person.

This is where our experience is invaluable. We can select the right translator to tailor your communication to your target audience and ensure that your message is understood.

Reliable English to French translation

Whether you need your website translated or a technical manual for a piece of machinery, we can find the most appropriate qualified and experienced translator to meet your needs. There are a few things you might want to consider before we begin the translation process, such as:

• How long is the text? We charge by the number of words in a document, so the length will determine the final cost. Knowing the number of words will also help us to determine how long the translation will take.

• What is the subject of the document? Our translators specialise in a wide range of industries, so we’ll select the most suitable French translator for you.

• Do you have a preferred style you would like the translator to use, or do you have French terminology glossaries or translation memories that you would like us to use?

• Do you have a delivery date in mind?

• What is the French translation for? Is it a website, a publication for the web or for print, a document for internal use? Any additional in formation you can provide is always useful.

• If it is a technical or specialised document, do you have any reference material which could be of benefit to the translator?

• Do you know what your target market is? Make sure you tell us if you need a Canadian French translator, a Belgian French translator, a Swiss French translator or even a French translator.
