Please take the time to read the following short discussion of human versus artificial translation:
We are ready to work with your business, providing professional, accurate, and stylistically flawless texts that will engage your current and prospective customers/clients alike. As always, it is important that every translation you use is a great translation. Your audience not only needs to get accurate information, but when style and clarity matter, only a professional human translator can provide it. No machine or AI-algorithm will ever be able to give you a translation that can be trusted. All a translation software does is compare a code for a word or phrase in one language with previously used codes for words or phrases in another, stored in a memory bank, or, determines the probability that a code it chooses is correct, calculating probability patterns and word sequences based on prior computations (= guesses). It might get it right one time and completely wrong the next. But the likelihood that the machine encounters the exact same text that you created already used before in another language is quite unlikely. Therefore, it cannot guarantee the accuracy of what it suggests as a translation. It's something patched together using other texts. A human translator will UNDERSTAND your text and translate it based on his/her understanding and knowledge. A machine does not THINK like a human being, it possesses not a shred of human intelligence or understanding. It has no sense for stylistic nuances, brevity, or clarity. And because of this, translations need to come from an experienced human translator. We use software to help us, but ultimately, we write and review our text ourselves and we decide what is correct and what is not. With our experience you make sure that every translation you get is a great translation. A translation you can trust, a translation that will work for your audience and clients. Especially in case of medical, legal, and technical translations, errors can have horrible consequences. And to win an audience over with a translated marketing or literary text is more than just translating it. It involves experienced use of two languages, translation skills, creativity, and style. So don't trust your translations to a machine or the AI craze. Trust the human experts who actually think and learn, something a machine will never do. It might be fed additional information by humans, but it will never think or learn like we do.
