Who are our medical and pharmaceutical Welsh translators?
All medical translation work is conducted by highly qualified Welsh translators. We ensure that each individual project is undertaken by the most suitable translator whose educational and professional background matches the project in hand.
The performance of our translators is monitored based against key performance criteria: accuracy, consistency, knowledge of subject terminology, formatting and completeness. They are re-evaluated regularly to ensure the high standards are maintained.
With the exception of linguists covering languages with rare status, as a minimum, our translators:
- must have a relevant first degree, postgraduate qualification or corresponding qualification
- are able to demonstrate a number of years full-time work in an appropriate field.
We assign a project manager to every assignment to ensure the project runs smoothly and is delivered on time and within budget.

While you’re here… some quite interesting facts about the Welsh language.
Welsh is a member of the Brittonic branch of the Celtic languages. It is spoken natively in Wales, by some in England, and in Y Wladfa (the Welsh colony in Chubut Province, Argentina). Historically, it has also been known in English as “Cambrian”, “Cambric” and “Cymric”. The United Kingdom Census 2011 recorded that the percentage of all people aged three and over living in Wales who could speak Welsh had decreased from 20.8% to 19% as compared to 2001. Despite an increase in the overall size of the Welsh population, this meant that the number of Welsh speakers in Wales dropped from 582,000 in 2001 to 562,000 in 2011. However, this figure was still much higher than 508,000 or 18.7% of people who said they could speak Welsh in 1991. According to the Welsh Language Use Survey 2013-15, 24% of people aged three and over living in Wales were able to speak Welsh. The Welsh Language (Wales) Measure 2011 gave the Welsh language official status in Wales, making it the only language that is de jure official in any part of the United Kingdom, English being de facto official.
