LOCALISATION FOR HONG KONG

Localisation is the process of adapting a translated text so that it is linguistically and culturally appropriate for a specific country or region. It includes translation, but it also includes linguistic factors such as culture and customs and non-linguistic factors such as units and date formats.

CTS provides localisation services to multinational companies in Hong Kong. We specialize in helping clients boost brand recognition by localizing websites, social media, and videos in over 120 languages.

If you think you have a product or service that Hong Kongers would love, get in touch with us today. We have helped thousands of clients localise their content for Asia’s World City.

SIMPLIFIED OR TRADITIONAL?

One of the questions we often get asked by clients is whether they should translate their documents into Mandarin or Cantonese. This question is technically incorrect as Mandarin and Cantonese are spoken languages. The written forms of Chinese are Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese.

For an audience based in Hong Kong, Taiwan, or Macau, your documents should be translated into Traditional Chinese. On the other hand, if your audience is based in Mainland China, Malaysia or Singapore, your documents will need to be translated into Simplified Chinese.

If you are unsure which version of Chinese you should choose, please feel free to get in touch. Our friendly team is always happy to help.

English to Chinese Translation Services - FAQ

  • What is English to Chinese Translation Service?

    English to Chinese translation involves converting written content from English to Chinese. This service caters to various documents, including marketing materials, technical manuals, and legal contracts. The aim is to ensure the translated content is accurate, culturally appropriate, and retains the original meaning and intent for a Chinese audience.

  • How is the pricing determined for translation services?

    The pricing for translation services is generally based on several factors, including the word count, complexity of the text, language pair, and required turnaround time. Specialised content such as legal, medical, or technical documents may incur higher costs due to the expertise needed. We offer discounts for large projects and repeat customers. If your project exceeds a certain word count, or if you have ongoing translation needs, we can discuss a tailored pricing plan that offers better rates.

  • How long does the translation process take?

    The duration of the translation process depends on the length and complexity of the document. Typically, shorter documents can be translated within a few days, while larger projects may take a week or more. Upon receiving your translation request, we will provide an estimated turnaround time for your specific project.

  • Can you handle both Simplified and Traditional Chinese?

    Absolutely. Our team includes professional translators and proofreaders who are proficient in both Simplified Chinese, commonly used in Mainland China, and Traditional Chinese, used in regions such as Taiwan and Hong Kong. Our head office in Shanghai handles translations relating to Simplified Chinese, while our Hong Kong office has the expertise for translations in Traditional Chinese.

  • Should I use online translation tools?

    Online translation tools can provide quick translations, but they should only be used for reference. Professional translators bring translation expertise, a deep understanding of cultural differences, and industry-specific knowledge. This leads to a higher quality translation that resonates with your target audience.

  • Can you translate websites and digital content?

    Yes, we specialise in translating websites and digital content. Whether you need an entire website translated, specific web pages, or digital marketing materials such as blog posts, social media updates, or email campaigns, we've got you covered. Our team ensures that the translations are not only accurate but also optimised for SEO and culturally relevant to your target audience.

  • Can you translate marketing materials?

    Absolutely. Translating marketing materials and advertising campaigns requires a creative touch and a deep understanding of the target audience. Our translators are skilled in marketing and advertising, ensuring that your brand's message is not only accurately translated but also resonates with your consumers. We can handle everything from brochures and flyers to digital ads and social media content, helping you connect with a broader audience and drive engagement.

  • Can you translate legal documents?

    Yes! Our legal translators are highly qualified professionals with a deep understanding of legal terminology. They hold relevant degrees in law or legal studies, along with certifications in translation. Many of our translators also have practical experience in legal settings, which enhances their ability to understand and accurately translate complex legal concepts.

  • How do you manage confidential documents?

    We take confidentiality very seriously and have strict policies in place to protect your information. We strictly limit access to customer data only to authorised personnel who require it for their specific job responsibilities. All sensitive customer information is encrypted, both in transit and at rest. Lastly, any third parties involved in handling customer information are bound by contractual agreements to maintain the same level of confidentiality and security.
