Working together with our experienced and qualified translators, voiceover artists, interpreters, audiovisual translators, transcribers and subtitlers, we offer a wide range of language services.
Available in over 200 languages within the UK and beyond, our linguists can get you heard in any language of your choice. While we do not offer a walk-in service, we are only one phone call away from discussing your language requirements.
Completed by qualified Farsi localisation and website translators
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, landing pages and social media posts to reflect that by having them translated into several languages. We call this translation process, localisation.
Our project managers can help you decide which localisation solutions suit your needs best.
We offer professional localisation services in over 200 languages including Farsi.
Working from your source website and landing page files our qualified and experienced Farsi website translators and 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 translators can apply the same treatment to your social media posts whether they are in written format or presented by video.
Our teams of Farsi linguists will identify aspects of the source content that are suitable for localisation and consider aspects including:
- religion
- mores
- social and commercial habits
- sense of humour
- idiomatic expressions
- metaphors
- rules of conduct
- ethical norms
Localisation issues to take into consideration
Global brand consistency. There may be some aspects of your 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 source material.
Concise design. If you know in advance that your material will be translated into other languages, you may wish to try and write the source text in as succinct a manner as possible. Expect translated and localised versions to expand or shrink and so if you need to consider space, always best to keep the source text as concise as is practical so that other language versions are not compromised.
Inclusive imagery. Again, it is all about planning. For best results, try not to use images and graphics that might appeal or be relevant to a small or specialised group of people only. Try to design with many cultures in mind. For example, if you are translating your material into Spanish, look at all Spanish-speaking countries.
Design with language in mind. Although the majority of languages read from left-to-right, not all of them do (Arabic, Hebrew and Farsi for example) so ensure that your design will allow for a mirrored layout if necessary.

Brand name linguistic analysis for other regional markets
Because some brand names and slogans have unexpected cultural connotations, we also have an experienced team of linguistic brand name analysts covering over 200 languages. They can ensure your logo, slogan or other translations will not be misinterpreted.
Our Farsi localisation linguists
All localisation translation work is conducted by highly qualified Farsi translators. We ensure that each individual project is undertaken by the most suitable translator whose educational and professional background matches the project in hand.
Based on their performance, our translators are monitored 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 Farsi language.
Persian or Farsi is a member of the Western Iranian branch of the Indo-European language family. It is spoken by about 110 million people, mainly in Iran, Afghanistan and Tajikistan, and also in Uzbekistan, Iraq, Russia and Azerbaijan. In 2009 there were about 60 million native speakers of Persian, and another 50 million second language speakers.
