Localisation Services
Most of us are not aware of the minute differences existing between different languages and dialects. Catering to the diverse target markets requires localisation, which is necessary to carry out expansion of your company into a global organisation.
This is especially relevant in today’s fast-paced world of commerce – which requires efficient translation, and we provide reliable localisation services in Singapore for this purpose.
Speak In the Language of Your Audience
But what does it mean by localisation? It is the process of making something local in character to a particular place. For example, in the context of translation, Simplified Chinese is used for both Singapore and China target audiences.
However, certain words, despite being the same, are understood differently in both countries. This is where localisation comes in. Although we are tasked to translate into Simplified Chinese, due to such cultural differences in the same language used, it is important to adapt and change accordingly during translation.
To do so, highly qualified translators are crucial when it comes to translation processes. Although someone may understand both English and Simplified Chinese, this does not necessarily mean the said person automatically qualifies as a translator.
As the entire process and requirements are much in depth, engaging a professional service from a registered translation company would be the best solution. At WhizWordz, we have a pool of highly trained and qualified translators and proof-readers to take on localisation services in Singapore.
Website Localisation Services
Getting your website localised involves more than merely translation services, as it is dependent on a thorough conversion which involves addressing audiences of all types. In the case of written language translation, certain format changes, correct creation of links and cultural sensitivity are necessary.
This is especially important for companies who are planning to go global. Your company website is the face of your brand and probably the first thing your clientele would look at to get more information about your services.
Naturally, with globalisation, and the need to cater to various target audiences, getting your website localised correctly is crucial. Even the slightest mistake could jeopardise the company’s image and potentially decreases your chance of appealing to your prospects.
