Czech Localisation and Website Translation

Millions of people worldwide use the internet to find products and information every day. If your business trades worldwide, you’ll probably need your website to reflect that by having it translated into several languages, including Czech. We call this process website translation and localisation.

Our project managers can help you decide which website translation services and localisation solutions suit your needs best.

Czech website localisation and translation

Working from your source files and using our specially designed software, our qualified and experienced Czech website translators and Czech website localisation specialists will extract the content of your site, translate it in a style appropriate to the locale, then proofread and edit it. If you prefer, we can also work from MS Word files supplied by you, (or any number of other source file formats).

Our Czech translators will identify aspects of the source content that are suitable for website localisation and consider aspects including:

• religion
• mores
• social and commercial habits
• sense of humour
• idiomatic expressions
• metaphors
• rules of conduct
• ethical norms.

There may be some aspects of your Czech website translation and other material that are global and necessary for brand awareness. There may be product names or trademarks that need to remain consistent across all language versions.

The project manager working on your assignment will work with you to create a glossary of any terms that need to remain consistent across all versions of the site.

Czech translation and software localisation

Our in-house software translation and localisation process and tools means “local” users will be able to interact fully with your site.

• Keywords and metadata tags can be localised for Czech consumers to achieve best possible optimisation opportunities
• Layout can be adapted to accommodate longer text strings which may occur as a result of translation into Czech
• All elements can be localised for Poland including text files, menus, dialogs, bitmaps and icons
• We can work with all the major Windows software formats as well as text files and tagged formats such as XML and HTML

We can either return the Czech translated files to you for uploading and testing, or we can carry out a test of the localised version for you.

Brand name linguistic analysis

Because some brand names and slogans have unexpected cultural connotations, we also have an experienced team of Czech brand name analysts. They can ensure your logo, slogan or other translations will not be misinterpreted.

WHILE YOU’RE HERE... SOME QUITE INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT THE Czech LANGUAGE

Czech is one of the West Slavic languages. It shares similarities with other Slavic languages, such as Polish or Russian, but it was also influenced by Latin and German. Furthermore it is mutually intelligible with its neighbouring language – Slovak language. Czech influence on language has made it to English with several words including dollar, pistol, polka and robot.

Czech SAMPLE TEXT

„Možná se ptáte, o jaké republice sním. Odpovídám: o republice samostatné, svobodné, demokratické, o republice hospodářsky prosperující a zároveň sociálně spravedlivé, zkrátka o republice lidské, která slouží člověku, a proto má naději, že i člověk poslouží jí. O republice všestranně vzdělaných lidí, protože bez nich nelze řešit žádný z našich problémů – lidských, ekonomických, ekologických, sociálních a politických.“
I dream of a republic independent, free, and democratic, of a republic economically prosperous and yet socially just; in short, of a humane republic that serves the individual and that therefore holds the hope that the individual will serve it in turn. Of a republic of well-rounded people, because without such people it is impossible to solve any of our problems — human, economic, ecological, social, or political.
Vaclav Havel
