As a former territory of the British Empire, Malta has long declared English to be one of the official languages of the islands. Owing to a rich historical past and to a highly diverse plurilingual reality, Maltese translators are exposed to a multilingual environment for most of their lives, and as a result grow up to be fully bilingual. This enables us to provide high-quality translations from multiple European languages into English and presently we cater mostly for translations from Italian into English.
Why Translating Your Foreign Language to English?
Reach Out to Billions of People
English is the global lingua franca of the 21st century and its presence is felt everywhere. In terms of native speakers, it’s the third most widely-spoken language boasting a figure of around 360 million native speakers. In addition, it also ranks highest in terms of the language which is spoken as a second language with 1.5 billion people speaking the language. Translating into English is the first step to reach new markets beyond your local market.
Be Compliant with Foreign Regulatory Bodies
Regulated products and services that are designed and manufactured in places like Italy, Germany and France and intended to be marketed internationally like pharmaceutical products and medical devices would need to have their related documentation translated into English.
Translate into Other Languages More Efficiently
As the global lingua franca, English often acts as a relay language that allows for a more efficient and cost-effective translation to other minority and less-spoken languages.
Who Buys Professional Translations into English?
Product Manufacturers
Companies located in countries which are well-renowned for manufacturing like Italy, Germany, France and Spain require translations into English for content related to their products which allows them to export internationally, make their message resonate more with locals and comply which regulatory bodies.
EU Institutions and Agencies
