Literal translation Services
The literal translation suggests preservation of original sentences structure. That is, the words in such sentences almost do not change their places. Context does not matter at all, since the main priority is to bring article message to a reader. If you want to translate a text from English into Russian as quickly as possible, this method can be quite effective, since very often literal translation results in understandable sentences.
Our translators are the best!
Our goal is constant development. This implies thorough quality management, eagerness to learn and implement new things, and openness to new opportunities. We are looking forward to establishing cooperation with other language service providers and corporate customers requiring such services.
Literal translation problems
Notwithstanding the aforesaid, we do not recommend you to use the literal translation service very often. The fact is that such a free rendering of sentences without reference to a context may eventually distort the article meaning significantly. In its turn, this will bring many unpleasant associations to a reader.
This is an important issue primarily for those website owners who strive to promote their brand, product or service, do everything possible for fast and high-quality promotion, but at the same time publish incompetently translated content and take it easy. Using the literal and word-by-word machine translation, you make visitors to deal with a hardly understandable set of words and far from everyone likes it. By doing this, you can hardly succeed in promotion.

The literal translation suffers from many drawbacks, but still you can use it in the following cases:
- to translate the documents for personal use only;
- when you need translation from English into Russian to understand only the general idea of a published work;
- when you are not interested in many technical terms contained in the text, but just want to understand its meaning.
Moreover, the literal translation is a perfect way to save money. Most often, this service involves a minimum amount of resources, thus reducing customer's expenses as much as possible.

A custom standard page is a conventional unit used to measure the amount of text for translations. One custom standard page contains 1,800 printed characters. The printed characters are all visible items (letters, punctuation marks, digits, etc.) and spaces between words. For example, one standard page contains 30 lines with 60 characters in each line.

We have no limitations on order amount. This means that we take even single word orders. However, when calculating the translation cost we consider a minimum order equal to one standard page (1800 characters with spaces), i.e. if text amount is less than one standard page, the price will anyway be the same as for one standard page, even if just a few words translated.
