The Italian language
An
interesting fact about Italian:
It is estimated that about half of Italy's population
does not speak standard Italian as a native language.
Most speakers of regional Italian dialects come
into contact with "standard" Italian at school. |

Our Italian linguists
As well as being qualified and tested linguists all our Italian 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.
Italian translation
For Italian translations, Geo works with qualified, expert translators. All our Italian 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 Italian translator who is based in the target country might not have the necessary understanding or terminology to translate a document for the Italian 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 Italian translators in the UK to use the correct, established terminology. See our translation section for more information on Italian translation or have a look at our industries section. If you need help with back translation from Italian, then we also have a great database of validated, high quality translators to meet your needs.
Italian interpreting
Geo has an extensive database of great people for Italian interpreting. Our Italian 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 Italian interpreting or have a look at our industries section.
Italian 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. Italian is no different, but you can rest assured that we can help you. See our typesetting section for more information on Italian typesetting or have a look at our industries section.
Italian media services
Geo can even offer Italian voice-overs, Italian dubbing, Italian audio and video recording s and Italian subtitling. See our media services section for more information or have a look at our industries section.
