Translation
Why hire a professional?
Translations set the tone and determine the corporate image of a company. A well-written text communicates a message to its readers. And a well-translated text communicates this message to readers from different parts of the world. Let us work on your texts – we are passionate about making sure your message comes across also in other languages.

We translate technical and non-technical texts for a variety of mediums and communication purposes for both companies and private customers.

INTERPRETING
Communication is a basic human need: we yearn to understand and be understood.
At Communicate for you we are convinced that there is no such thing as “understanding somebody a little bit”. Irony, wit, sarcasm, cultural references and allusions not only add shades to, but determine the content of utterances. Benefit from speaking your mother tongue and give others the chance to use their full potential – as professional interpreters we are trained to convey even the subtlest nuances of your speech, helping you to present yourself in the best way possible.

Whether you need simultaneous interpreting, consecutive interpreting or chuchotage – contact us and we will find the ideal solution for your event.
TEAM
The Communicate for you team is known for its reliability and flexibility.
We have worked for our clients in a long-standing, successful cooperation and our strong network of qualified collaboration partners gives us the necessary leeway to complete larger assignments. We have strong ties to UNIVERSITAS Austria, the Austrian Interpreters' and Translators' Association, through long years of membership and board work. Further education is a must for us: we regularly attend specialised workshops to make sure we always meet the high expectations of our customers.

Our work process is tried and tested: all texts that we work on undergo a strict quality assurance process. It goes without saying that we treat all assignments confidentially.

PRICING
We charge translation and interpretation services according to the fee chart of UNIVERSITAS Austria, the Interpreters’ and Translators’ Association in Austria.
Translations are charged per standard line, using the translation as the basis for calculation. If a project requires you to know the exact costs in advance, we can also make a lump-sum offer. Text optimisation, proofreading and related services are charged on an hourly basis. Interpreting fees depend on the length of assignment. For interpreting services of up to four hours, we charge half-day rates. To longer assignments of up to seven hours, the full-day rate applies. Short assignments (maximum of one hour) are charged on an hourly basis.

Chiaki and Laura translate fast, their working process is perceptive and to the point: when you need a text urgently, they will do whatever it takes to meet your challenging deadline, they help you express yourself when you are struggling to find the right words, and always end up striking the perfect tone. I can only recommend them to anyone who needs good English texts.
