Linguistic quality assurance
Linguistic quality assurance checks for better quality translations!
Communication is crucial for your business. But it is a double-edged sword! High quality translations will give you a credible brand image. However, a simple translation error can badly harm your business. It is essential to check the quality of translations from your language service providers. But how, when your teams don’t understand the language into which your content has been translated? How can you be sure that the translation agency you use for your project is doing its job properly? Why not get language QA from an independent provider, to check the quality of your translations? Our linguistic quality assurance department is independent from our “normal” translation team. That means our language quality control audit on your translations is entirely objective.
What exactly does a linguistic quality assurance check involve?
Linguistic quality control is about more than just proofreading.
The source and target texts are analysed in depth: Beelingwa conducts a phrase by phrase comparison of the source and target versions, identifies errors and corrects them. A quality report is then provided.
Here are the most commonly found problems during linguistic quality assurance checks:
- Mistranslation
- Lack of meaning or clarity
- Missing/added elements
- Incorrect terminology
- Inconsistency
- Formatting
- Stylistic issues
- Grammar, spelling and punctuation mistakes
The severity of these issues varies: according to the errors found, a full report is provided.
What are the advantages of a linguistic quality assurance check?
- Peace of mind that you are publishing good translations
- Clear identification of points for improvement in your multilingual communication
- Recommendations for your translators and yourself or your company
- External expertise
When do I need a linguistic quality assurance check?
Generally, it is always best to get a linguistic quality assurance check. However, language quality control is particularly important in the following cases:
- When your message will be visible to prospects or customers
- When your company has doubts about the quality of the translations from your language service provider
