The Welsh language
An
interesting fact about Welsh:
Welsh is currently a minority language in Wales.
About a third of people understand it, but Welsh
is enjoying a deserved revival and this number
is set to grow greatly.

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