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