 Why choose e2f Tech ?

There are two main competing translation theories : “literal” (word-for-word) versus “idiomatic” (rendering of ideas).

A literal translation focuses on an exact translation of every word, turn of phrase, and meaning of the original text. Too many translators rely on "word-for-word" in all circumstances. Unfortunately this technique produces texts that feel translated — it produces choppy, long sentences that do not feel natural to the native reader.

An idiomatic translation, on the other hand, flows with ease as though it is written in its native language. It conveys the meaning of the original text, by using equivalent language and the forms and structures of the target language, in order to produce a translation that reads like an original.

Although more demanding, combining the two theories brings better results, and this is exactly what e2f Tech does. I not only guarantee semantically faithful translations of the source text, and respect for the author's ideas; I also guarantee idiomatic translations using expressions of the target language that will bring the documents to life.

• "Woe to the makers of literal translations, who by rendering every word weaken the meaning! It is indeed by so doing that we can say the letter kills and the spirit gives life."
  Voltaire, in Lettres Philosophiques.
