Chinese translation
Translation of all types of documents from and to Chinese
ATT – Translations offers the services of professional Chinese translators. Please note that our translation agency does not specialize in notarial services and therefore we cooperate exclusively with translators of the Chinese language who are able to perform professional and high-quality translation of non-standard specialized texts.
Technical Translation Agency will find an interpreter (or a group of interpreters) from/into Chinese in the shortest possible time and in exactly the subject area that you need. If in order to save costs the client chooses a translator who is not a native speaker of Chinese, we will certainly recommend having the translation proofread by a native speaker of Chinese. Such an approach reduces costs and significantly improves the quality of translation.

Some difficulties in translation into Chinese
Translating into Chinese can present some challenges due to the unique features of the language. Here are some difficulties that translators may encounter:
- Chinese has a complex writing system consisting of thousands of characters, each with its own meaning and pronunciation. Translating into Chinese requires a deep understanding of the characters and their usage, as well as the context of the source text.
- Chinese is a tonal language, which means that the meaning of a word can change depending on the tone used to pronounce it. This can make it challenging to accurately convey the meaning of a sentence, especially when translating from a language without a tonal system.
- Chinese has many dialects, each with its own unique vocabulary, pronunciation, and grammar. Translators need to be familiar with the specific dialect of the target audience to ensure that the translation is appropriate and understandable.
- Chinese has a rich cultural and historical context that can be difficult to convey in translation. For example, certain words and expressions may have cultural connotations that are not easily translatable into other languages.
- Chinese has a unique grammatical structure with no verb conjugation or noun declension. This can make it challenging to accurately convey the meaning of a sentence, especially when translating from a language with a more complex grammatical structure.
Overall, translating into Chinese requires a deep understanding of the language and its unique features, as well as careful attention to detail and accuracy.
