Across Europe, home and business owners are switching in their thousands to renewable energy sources such as solar and wind. There are attractive offers being made for those who convert in some countries, the chance to save money on utility bills and the environmental issue of reducing energy consumption and the opportunity to move partly or wholly off-grid. Whilst the equipment being sold to those who make the move to renewable energy may seem to be being supplied by companies in various EU countries, their source is now usually much further afield.

Those working for a translation service will usually need to be able to directly interpret content or speech into another language which is often the national language of the country. However, there are instances where this is not the case due to the country having more than one national language but certain words not directly translating to those particular languages.

1. KNOWLEDGE OF THE LANGUAGE Translation by the professional into his/her mother tongue Familiarity with the nuances of the language. Texts that look like they were written from scratch in the target language.

Professional translator into Asian languages A professional or specialised Asian translator (e.g. translating into Chinese, Japanese, etc.) will have no  problems in understanding the many aspects associated  with Asian characters and the implementation of the spoken languages. Here you will find a brief introduction to the "Far East": Asia is the largest continent with a populace of more than 4 billion, which is 60 percent of the world's population.

Medical errors are partly due to inadequate translations. A hospital report shows that in 2011, some 4,000 cases of malpractice were committed in German hospitals and medical practices, although not all were the fault of the doctor. Part of this error is due to incorrectly translated medical records and reports. According to one American study, 1,500 of 30,000 examined medication errors were ascribed to ambiguous abbreviations.

Translation errors result in plants failing and major financial losses. The German Chamber of Industry and Commerce claims that exports grew by 6 per cent in 2013. The tapping of foreign markets is often prepared over many years, but apparent details are often overlooked or approached only too late.
