Companies that provide architectural and engineering solutions must communicate with engineers and business decision makers. Eventually the content must also be accessible to the end users of their products and services. Throughout the process of procurement, design, engineering, execution and maintenance, the Engineering Services provider must ensure adequate communication as part of their solutions package.

Often this communication needs to be translated into various languages. In order to translate it correctly, one MUST understand the source correctly.
“If You Don’t Understand It, You Cannot Translate It!”
To illustrate, can you explain the following terms in the context of power generators?

The chemicals industry must follow regulations and conform to the requirements of leading industry associations. Chemical manufacturers constantly produce and update:

• Patents
• Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS)
• Toxicology Reports
• Deviation Reports and related documentation

Depending on location, these documents must be translated into one or several languages and filed. In the case of MSDS documents, Language Scientific is aware that layout is important. For example, the MSDS could be created with 8 section headers (OSHA standard) or with 16 section headers (ANSI standard).

Electronic Engineering covers a wide range of products used in manufacturing and consumer electronic goods. From circuits and mother boards to transformers and semiconductors, these products are developed by engineers for engineers. Often the research, product development, marketing and sales for such products is dispersed amongst different locations. This enhances the need to communicate effectively with experts, engineers, manufacturers and eventually the sales team and prospective clients. Needless to say, precision in understanding the concepts and products is crucial to effective communication.

For instance in the sentence: “The compressor enclosure and skid has provision for bolt down via bolt down lugs,…” it is vital to understand the context, and be familiar with the machine, in order to communicate this correctly in any language. A diagram may not be enough to communicate this information—it requires hands-on experience working as a mechanical engineer.

Technology defined by innovative leaps or human capital are expanding globally at rapid pace. Competition to grow existing mature domestic operations as well as expand into new international countries requires bold ideas that will influence buyers and markets around the globe. Companies are marketing to key emerging markets such as Latin America, India and China and also establishing global production facilities to reduced labor costs. Global success depends on providing language specific materials and instructions.

Language Scientific has been a long-standing collaborator in the Information Technology sector, working with clients such as Microsoft, EMC and Alcatel-Lucent to help these companies communicate precisely yet cost-effectively in more than 150 languages. Language Scientific’s subject matter experts have laboratory experience, coupled with extensive hands-on usage of source and translated documents. They assure precision and usability of the translation. Language Scientific’s in-house Desktop Publishing Team customizes the layout of the translated documents to provide a translated product that is guaranteed to meet regulatory requirements.

Patent Translation by Subject Matter Experts

Language Scientific employs only patent translators and translation editors who hold technical degrees such as MSEE, PhD, or MD in engineering, science, medicine or computer science. All patent translators translate only into their native language, and have extensive background not just in technical translation but specifically in the field of patent translation.

For example, all patent translators and editors working on translating a biochemistry patent application or specification from Japanese to English are biochemists who are native speakers of English. They hold an MS or a PhD degree in biochemistry and have a minimum of 7 years experience in patent translation.
