Philosophy

“Translators are like busy match-makers: they (...) arouse an irresistible longing for the original.”

The great poet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe knew a thing or two about translators; as linguists, we seek to keep the composition of the target text as near as possible to the source text – in terms of both content and style.

Translators are always faced with the challenge of maintaining the right balance between an objective rendering of the text, and subjective influencing factors. It is crucial for the intention of the source text to be retained as closely as possible in the target text.

Our motivation:

Depending on the context, words can take on a broad range of meanings, and that's what makes our work so exciting. Every new text is like a treasure hunt: We love finding especially striking words and formulations, and thereby providing satisfaction for our clients. At the same time, with each new subject area we are given the opportunity to learn, and to gain fresh experience for future projects.

Our philosophy:

Only structured and thorough work can provide optimum results, which we strive methodically to achieve in a harmonious atmosphere. We hope to be a reliable and competent partner for you, our client.
