Completed by qualified Hebrew 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 Hebrew translators. 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. 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. We would argue that literary translation is an art form in its own right.
Our team of Hebrew literary linguists can also abridge, edit, proofread and prepare written texts ready for audio book production.

While you’re here… some quite interesting facts about the Hebrew language.
Hebrew is one of the official languages of the State of Israel, as well as Arabic. Hebrew is spoken in Israel and in many Jewish communities around the world, and you are likely to find Hebrew speakers where there are large Jewish communities, for example in the USA (where there are more than 5 millions Jews), France (approximately 490,000 Jews) and Canada (approximately 375,000 Jews). The Hebrew language found in the Bible (with the other language found in the Bible being Aramaic) is considered Classical or Biblical Hebrew. This language evolved towards the end of the 19th century, into a language used for daily life – Modern Hebrew.
