DID YOU KNOW?    

The difference between LOCALIZATIONS AND TRANSLATIONS?

LOCALIZATIONS AND TRANSLATIONS are actually two different processes used for translating a source language to another language. While translation is about changing the source text (normally English) of programs, documents or web content into a target language through simply translating the words from one language to another, localization takes the translated content a step further by taking into account the semantics and ensuring that the end product is relevant in the target language culture. Such “mishaps” can occur to the embarrassment of the publisher when translations are done in a literal manner without localization, such as a Tokyo Hotel notice translated into English literally as; “Is forbidden to steal hotel towels please. If you are not a person to do such thing is please not to read notice.”

Though most word for word translations often amuse the reader, it has the undesirable potential of being offensive in the target language’s culture when such “jokes” infringe upon cultural sensitivities. If the translated language is irrelevant to the target culture, then it is likely that localization was not done in a methodical and professional manner.

In Elite Asia in Singapore, we take the initiative to provide advice to our clients on ensuring the translated content stays relevant to the target audience and go the extra mile by cautioning them when translated materials border on being offensive to the readers.
