Our Translation Philosophy
Translation is more than the replacement of one word in the source language with another in the target language. It is a decision-making process involving a judgement regarding every single word translated, and the best way to translate it.
Translation at Holy Translation exemplifies the above mantra and this is especially true for Chinese to English—a notoriously difficult language pair in terms of translatability. Yet, this is the language pair in which we have built our reputation as a world class translation service provider.
Chinese and English are very different languages in terms of syntactic structure, and are embedded in very distinct cultural sub-stratums. Translation from one to the other requires very specific skills to work around the unique challenges on offer.
At Holy Translation, we have the expertise, intelligence, sensitivity, and flair to decode these silences, give accurate meaning to these non-specifics, and produce a text that retains the essence of the source and achieves dynamic equivalence in the target language English. The aim is not to fulfill the two extremes of metaphrase (word-for-word) translation or imitation (loose rendering of original), but paraphrase which expresses the essence of the original without being enslaved by words.
Our strengths are our translation team, our extensive subject expertise (in both technical and non-technical areas), our inhouse team of around 100 English experts, and our services all of which are grounded in this philosophy.
