Hindi 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 Hindi. 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.

Hindi website localisation and translation

Working from your source files and using our specially designed software, our qualified and experienced Hindi website translators and Hindi 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 Hindi 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 Hindi 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.

Hindi 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 Hindi 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 Hindi
• 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 Hindi 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

Hindi SAMPLE TEXT

कलम, आज उनकी जय बोल | कविता - रामधारी सिंह दिनकर | Ramdhari Singh Dinkar
जो अगणित लघु दीप हमारे,
तूफ़ानों में एक किनारे,
जल-जलाकर बुझ गए किसी दिन,
मांगा नहीं स्नेह मुँह खोल।
कलम, आज उनकी जय बोल।

पीकर जिनकी लाल शिखाएं,
उगल रही सौ लपट दिशाएं,
जिनके सिंहनाद से सहमी,
धरती रही अभी तक डोल।
कलम, आज उनकी जय बोल।

अंधा चकाचौंध का मारा,
क्या जाने इतिहास बेचारा,
साखी हैं उनकी महिमा के,
सूर्य, चन्द्र, भूगोल, खगोल।
कलम, आज उनकी जय बोल।
