2. Localization Services – App, Software or Website
You have presented your new app, and everyone loves it. The design is crisp, the code is bug-free, and you’re ready to boost your marketing.
Then someone asks, “Does it work in Czech or any other language?” Now is the perfect time to turn to Alcedo CZ. The ever-expanding global marketplace brings with it a number of challenges that businesses must overcome if they want to achieve global success. Consumers – no matter where in the world – are no longer satisfied with using software or apps that do not provide a native experience or that come across as unfamiliar. Simply translating software into a foreign language falls short in
overcoming this challenge – the look and feel of the software must speak to your global audience. Alcedo CZ will help you to effectively connect with your target consumers in any market of the world. We will work with you, your website designer/host, or your IT staff to find the best approach in achieving your global needs.
3. Multilingual DTP and Graphic Design
From product manuals and guides to corporate correspondence, you’ve prepared your customized documents so that they speak to the intended reader as designed.
The only problem? Your readers speak different languages and live in different countries with different cultures. It is essential that your documents read as you intend them to regardless of the target language or culture – this is where you need Alcedo CZ.
We offer translation and language implementation in a variety of graphic design software suites, including InDesign, Adobe Illustrator, and FrameMaker to make your content ready for any type of application. Please contact us to schedule your no-cost pre-project technical consultation. We handle all major DTP applications and languages on Mac and Windows platforms and will prepare your ready-to-print PDFs and compressed files that you can access through our FTP site or the file sharing application of your choice.
4. Cultural Competency Consulting
When working in international settings, developing a corporate culture that includes team members from various cultural backgrounds can be fascinating and very productive, but it also requires cultural competence. Each country is unique, and its culture has developed over hundreds or even thousands of years. This means that values, cultural norms, and belief systems are deeply ingrained in the people.
Alcedo CZ knows what it takes to find the right words for any occasion and topic for any given audience or target group with a specific cultural orientation. This competency is derived from an understanding of cognitive psychology, linguistics, and anthropology. Symbols, metaphors, images, and idioms are often used as shorthand for experiences, emotions, and parts of communication that would otherwise require longer explanations. However, there is often no direct translation for these verbal elements in other languages. Let Alcedo CZ overcome this challenge for you and develop the right content for your brand and target audience.
5. Machine Translation & Post-editing Services
Machine translation (MT) can be a great supplement to traditional translations. Our solution is based on the latest language technology and the process can be adapted to your needs.
To ensure the same high quality as human translation, our linguistic specialists perform post-editing (PE). We offer MT with post-editing (MTPE) or without post-editing, depending on your use case.
By adding the human-in-the-loop and combining the speed and efficiency of MT with the expertise of a human translator (PE), you get the best of both worlds. This balanced approach results in faster turnaround times and lower translation costs.
Our linguistic specialists can also perform PE and/or revision on your machine-translated material.
