French to English translation that makes an impact

Corporate Translation
& Editing

Don’t just translate your words, translate your ideas.

Building your brand across borders can be challenging. It’s important to identify any potential cultural issues in your text. For example, will your brand name or slogan be problematic? Is the image you have selected appropriate for your target audience? As a translator, I have in-depth knowledge of French and Australian cultural and language norms to alert you to these kinds of issues.

I offer accurate and fluent French to English translations, specialising in marketing, reports as well as editing and proofreading. I can also edit your website html files or work directly in your content management system.

I recently translated the Hyvity website into English. This company contributes to the generation of clean electricity through its regional hydropower developments. I worked closely with the client to really understand the company’s mission in order to accurately convey it in English.

There was a significant amount of research involved in terms of ingredients. This project was completed using Adobe Indesign files.
