Completed by qualified Greek literary translators

Literary translation is probably one of the most challenging forms of translation and we are delighted to be able to offer a very strong team of experienced Greek translators.ย  The art of translating prose or poetry into or from another language is in some ways a lot less straightforward than translating an operating manual.ย  The technical translator must of course be familiar with the specific terms of his or her area of expertise, but for the literary linguist, the challenge is different every time.

To translate a book, script or piece of poetry from or into another language the linguist will need to know how to handle abstract language, find the right rhythm, idioms and adapt culturally dependent references in order to produce a piece of the work that works as well in the target language as it did in the source.ย  We would argue that literary translation is an art form in its own right.

Our team of Greek literary linguists can also abridge, edit, proofread and prepare written texts ready for audio book production.

While youโ€™re here… some quite interesting facts about the Greek language.

Greek is the official language of Greece, which is also called the Hellenic Republic, and is also one of the official languages of the Republic of Cyprus. There are big Greek and Cypriot communities in the US, the UK, Australia, Germany, Canada, Chile, South Africa and Russia, but also in neighbouring countries, such as Albania, Bulgaria and Turkey. It’s estimated that around 30% of the English vocabulary consists, directly and indirectly, of words of Classical Greek origin. Most of them are technical and scientific terms.

Where is Greek most widely spoken?

Greece, Cyprus and the European Union. Greek is also a minority language in Albania, Armenia, Hungary, Romania, Ukraine, and also in the regions of Apulia & Calabria in Italy.
