From global to local
German to English localisation
As you may know, there isn’t really one single universal English language. Many words and phrases can be singular to a particular area and would be as foreign to a English-speaker from outside the region as words from Mandarin or Elvish. On the other hand, there are some words that can be used in all regions but which have totally different meanings depending on which region you’re in.
Localisation goes beyond the mere translation of content. It’s about understanding the culture behind the specific language to make it look and sound more native to your target audience. So, if you’re planning on expanding your business to the English market, it’s important to employ the right language. You want the language to sound as natural as possible to the locals, but you also want to avoid mistakenly offending anyone. Therefore, only qualified and experienced German -English translators can deliver the right and appropriate content when translating from German to English.
Going global
English is the gateway to a global market

However, translating to English is not just about having your audience understanding your message, it’s about digging deeper in order to reach that one specific group that you’re targeting.
There are many differences between American, British and Australian English. This is where we come in! Our qualified translators have the cultural and local understanding of the language and will help you reach your target audience with tailored English translations.

Similarities & differences
German-English language history
The German and English language are closely related due to their history. In Fact, German and English go way back: they both belong to the Germanic branch of the Indo-European language family, which explains common features in both languages. For example, they share many similar cognates: “Winter/inter”, “Haus/House”, trinken/drink, etc.
However, even if the vocabulary can be very similar, German and English work in very different ways in many aspects. If some cognates seem to have the same meaning, they are in fact so called “false friends” (a word or expression that has a similar form to one in a person's native language, but a different meaning). For example, the German word ‘also’ doesn’t have the same meaning as the English word ‘also’.
Another important aspect to be aware of when translating from German to English are long compound nouns. In German, it is very common to group different nouns to make one new unique noun. When translating from German to English, this can reduce the length of the content down to 35%.

Language differences
UK English vs US English
The most common of language varieties in English are those spoken in the UK and the US. In terms of vocabulary, grammar, spelling and pronunciation there are so many differences when it comes to British English and American English.
Mastering a language is about mastering the details that make it unique. Many English speakers don't know about the little differences that separate British English from American English. As shown on the left it can come down to replacing an entire word with another one, but it can also be shown in minor details such as in the spelling. ‘Color’ and ‘colour’ are pronounced in the same way and the only difference is shown in how it’s written.
One could argue that British English will always be the most correct since American English derives from British English. However, languages are always in motion and develop over time and across borders so there’s no one “correct” way of doing it. These are all factors that should be considered when translating into English as they can easily be the difference between ‘making it’ and ‘breaking it’.
