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