Certified Translations From and Into Swedish
If your translated documents are submitted to any official institution, you will usually need a certified translation.
The decision-makers need to make sure they rely on complete and accurate information, so your translation has to be accompanied by a statement that attests to the absence of omissions and accurate rendering of the meaning into another language. This statement is initialed, signed (and sometimes sealed) by the translator who has the relevant certification and authorization to do so. And this is what differentiates certified translation from a standard one.
We have a team of certified translators with different areas of expertise, and we can assign your document to them in no time thanks to our well-designed working process.
Quality Assurance
This is a bottleneck in the translation industry.
On the one hand, the process is pretty straightforward: you just use the standard procedure of three-tier text processing: translator => editor => proofreader.
On the other hand, a good translation is an art, and tastes differ very much when it comes to text evaluation. Even two editors in the same team may disagree over some phrase or word!
Nevertheless, HumanTranslation knows how to cope with it. We have a stringent working process in place that incorporates all best practices in the industry, plus in-house guidelines to be followed (which include the procedure of agreement on doubtful places) that strike the balance between art and business. This powerful duo has never failed, and we have been delivering accurate translations to our customer’s satisfaction for over a decade.
Our experts and managers know how to make the best of your text, so you can fully rely on us.
Swedish Facts
- Swedish, Danish and Norwegian are so similar that you can learn one language and easily understand the other two – you will just need to get used to a few different characters.
- Sweden is still a kingdom, and no wonder: the country’s name (Sverige in Swedish) actually means “our kingdom”!
- The Swedes have a funny way of combining words. Shield & frog mean “turtle” (sköldpadda). Butter & goose get together to form a “sandwich” (smörgas).
- English has borrowed some words from Swedish, like moped (motor + pedal), ombudsman (public representative of legal rights), or tungsten (a chemical element).
- In Swedish, there are different words for your grandparents on your mother’s side and father’s side. Mormor is your mother’s mother (“mother mother”), and farmor is your father’s mother (“father mother”).
Language Tips:
The Swedes prefer the style of direct messages, so you’d better transform the parts that exaggerate things or seem to be beating around the bush. Each sentence should be functional rather than descriptive to feel natural.
The dates in Swedish are presented in the YYYY-MM-DD format, so be sure to follow this pattern for official documents and business texts.
The Swedes are strongly attached to wide social concepts like sustainable development, environment protection, and ethical issues. These are the strong values of the local society that should never be referred to in an inappropriate way.
Don’t be afraid to be informal wherever appropriate: the Swedes keep away from formal expressions as much as possible.
