The Irish language
An
interesting fact about Irish:
People's perception of colour the world over is
very diverse and Irish is no exception. Interestingly
Irish uses "Gorm" for blues and dark greens of
plants and "Glas" for the non-dark green of plants
and some greys. It's just about perception… is
white. |

Our Irish linguists
As well as being qualified and tested linguists all our Irish translators and interpreters sign up to our code of conduct which governs expected quality levels and ensures confidentiality. In addition, our database keeps track of all their specialist areas so we can find exactly the right person for your assignment.
Irish translation
For Irish translations, Geo works with qualified, expert translators. All our Irish translators are professionals translating into their mother tongue. Normally they will live in the country where the target language is spoken so that they remain up to speed with the language and culture. The only time this doesn’t work is if the translator is required to have knowledge about a linguistic community outside the target culture... for instance if our Irish translator who is based in the target country might not have the necessary understanding or terminology to translate a document for the Irish community in the UK dealing with UK bodies and concepts..e.g. the Financial Ombudsman or the NHS. In these instances Geo works with qualified Irish translators in the UK to use the correct, established terminology. See our translation section for more information on Irish translation or have a look at our industries section. If you need help with back translation from Irish, then we also have a great database of validated, high quality translators to meet your needs.
Irish interpreting
Geo has an extensive database of great people for Irish interpreting. Our Irish interpreters are selected for their expertise, knowledge of specialist areas, friendly professional attitude and consistently good feedback. See our interpreting section for more information on Irish interpreting or have a look at our industries section.
Irish typesetting
Typesetting in different languages can be tricky if you don’t know what you’re doing. Hyphenation rules change. Fonts sometimes aren’t supported in some design packages. Some languages read left to right (like English), others (like Arabic) read right to left. Irish is no different, but you can rest assured that we can help you. See our typesetting section for more information on Irish typesetting or have a look at our
industries section.
Gaelic - Irish media services
Geo can even offer Irish voice-overs, Irish dubbing, Irish audio and video recording s and Irish subtitling. See our media services section for more information or have a look at our industries section.
