And just so you feel confident in using these phrases, here is a little bit about the people who compiled them for you - UK translation company Lingo24 was founded in Aberdeen, in 2001, and today they're one of the fastest growing translation companies in the world. There are over 150 team members (Lingo-ists) worldwide, with hubs in Edinburgh, London, Timisoara (Romania), Panama City, the Philippines and New Zealand.
The Lingo24 philosophy is based on customer service, quality and flexibility. Their international hubs enable them to provide genuine 24/7, personalised support to each and every one of their clients, irrespective of size. Their rigorous recruitment policies and quality management processes ensure they always maintain the highest possible standards. And their four unique service levels cater for any translation requirement.
Beyond translation, though, they're always working towards new ways to help businesses make money from their multilingual material. From Foreign Language Internet Marketing (FLIM) to website and product localisation to revolutionary translation technology, they’ve got big ideas which help you.
