Translation

System for sending translation requests: 

Please e-mail translation requests to Felix at : union.translation@aber.ac.uk

We are currently working on a 3-5 day turnaround for translation dependent on how busy the service is at the time.

 

  • Please state the deadline it is needed by (please allow a week for translation that doesn’t need to be last minute to be returned). Our translation service aims to turnaround translation in 3-5 working days.4
  • We understand that there will be some events where ‘urgent translation’ is needed – in this case please state the urgency and we will see what we can do.
  • Please send over requests either as a Google document or word doc table with Welsh and English columns side by side.
  • If unsure on how to present a translation request, a template can be found here (not all the columns have to be used and they can be made as large and as small as needed) 
  • For documents that have already been partly translated or edited since translation please highlight the text that needs translating in a specific colour that stands out (or send over as tracked changes).
  • For any changes to the Welsh or the English, please track/note the changes on the existing document.
  • If possible, please keep to one document for a project’s translation needs i.e. for any articles, web content & social media posts, please use the same document as the table.
