Barnsdale Translation Services
Barnsdale is all about intercultural communication. All our programmes and services are designed to help people from different cultures communicate optimally. And sometimes this means having corporate, academic or personal documents translated by professionals to ensure that they keep the spirit and meaning of your originals.
Who are we?
We here at Barnsdale are pleased to offer a professional translation service staffed by an in-house team which is in charge of overseeing the quality assurance and assigning every translation to the professional with the most in-depth knowledge of the subject matter and languages.
Each team member has over 10 years of experience in the field, plus education and experience in their fields of expertise. We also work with a series of professionals to whom we can outsource specialised translations, and before we work with any new outsourcers, they are subjected to a battery of translation tests to ensure the quality of their work.
Regardless of whether we work in-house or with outsourcers, every single document we deliver to our customers has been personally checked by the Barnsdale team, thus ensuring top quality.
Translation Service
At Barnsdale our in-house translators and outsource team work between English, Spanish and Catalan. We focus on general, not technical, translations in which a reader-friendly, cultured style is desired.
If you need other kinds of translations, either into or from other languages or with different kinds of text – legal, medical, technical – please check with us and we will honestly tell you if we have qualified translators for your job. We would rather lose business than deliver shoddy work, meaning that we can guarantee the outstanding quality of any translation we deliver.
Proofreading
Barnsdale also offers proofreading of any text – corporate reports, brochures, PowerPoint presentations, articles – written either by non-natives or by natives who would like a final set of eyes to check the style and accuracy of the texts.
We do not underestimate the crucial importance of having a perfect, error-free and reader-friendly text, regardless of its purpose or audience, and our professionals are here to lend you a hand to ensure that your personal or corporate reputation is only enhanced by every document you produce.
We know that despite all the technological breakthroughs, translating requires professionals who have an in-depth knowledge of the field, a profound understanding of the original language including all its nuances and registers, and outstanding writing skills in their native language.
All Barnsdale translators work into their native language to ensure that the translated texts read as smoothly as the original. Barnsdale Translation Service’s strong points are experience, professionalism and quality control.
And our fields of expertise include business (financial reports, annual reports, marketing and advertising), culture (the arts, gastronomy, architecture), politics (public policy, European Union), the social sciences (history, economics, geography) and languages and education (linguistics, phonetics, literature, language teaching).
How does the service work?
All you have to do is send your text, the service required (translation or proofreading), approximate deadlines if you have them (remember, translators are humans, not machines, the more generous the deadline, the more time we can spend polishing your text) and any other relevant information (audience, illustrations that accompany the text, etc.) to traduccions@barnsdale.biz. We will get back to you as soon as possible with a hassle-free quote and our deadline, should it differ from yours. Then it’s up to you to accept our offer!
In your email, kindly state your name, company name (if applicable), country, phone number, which service you require (translation or proofreading), the target language, delivery date and any comments. Don’t forget to attach your document! We’ll be in touch with you shortly.
