Over 230+ Languages and Adding New Languages Everyday
As multicultural language specialists, Linguava’s daily mission is to connect as many people as possible by removing language barriers and respecting values in our communities and throughout the global marketplace.
Cultural awareness and understanding are important components for Linguava, as we work with a wide variety of cultures on a daily basis, providing quality translations in more than 150 languages and dialects.
Quality Assurance (QA) is a core pillar at Linguava.
Quality Assurance is built-in to every translation as a part of our project process. A major translation step requires verification prior to moving on to the next step. Linguava translators are tested based upon their target industry and must pass our proprietary onboarding exam.
Our quality assurance process is completed via a 3-step process, which includes:
Step 1
Translations are completed by a native speaker of the target language with proven expertise in the subject area.
Step 2
Editing is done by a second linguist (also a native speaker of the target language) and checks the translation for syntax, flow, and terminology usage.
Step 3
A final review is completed by a QA specialist to ensure that the translation is complete and matches the original style guide, formality use, and date/time specifications.

A Translation's Journey
For standard project translations, below is the basic workflow that is used within the Linguava project management system.
Our expert project coordinators manage the step-by-step process, from file analysis and quote creation, to the on-time delivery of the completed translation project. Importantly, at Linguava each client is assigned a specific project coordinator, facilitating enhanced client communications and “Above and Beyond” quality customer service.
All language preferences are kept in our Translations Memories (TM)
Managing your Translation Memories (TM):
Manage your Translation Memory (TM) to keep language preferences consistent. Translation Memory (TM) is a database that stores previously translated text. All translations are stored within the Translation Memory (TM) in source and target language pairs (called translation units) for reuse.
Our translation specialists use the latest Translation Memory (TM) technology to leverage previously translated content in order to drive down costs, dramatically reduce the time needed to publish multilingual content, and improve quality by ensuring consistency across all translated materials. Linguava provides Translation Memory (TM) discounts based on the type of word segments that are found in each document.
Why is a properly managed translation memory important?
Guarantees that no text is missed or left untranslated.
Speeds up the translation and review process.
Please contact us at translations@linguava.com or call 503.265.8515 to learn more about Translation Memory (TM), terms, and discounts.
