As well as providing top quality translations when required, our Norwegian linguistic teams also provide medical and pharmaceutical audiovisual translation and transcription services, face-to-face onsite interpreting, telephone interpreting (available 24/7 365 days of the year), subtitling and voiceovers for medical video material.

Our clients trust us as their language-support partner.  Being able to work and communicate in multiple languages improves patient satisfaction, means better health outcomes as the risk of misunderstanding is reduced and increased operational efficiency as communication barriers are swept away.

Who are our medical and pharmaceutical Norwegian translators?

All medical translation work is conducted by highly qualified Norwegian translators. We ensure that each individual project is undertaken by the most suitable translator whose educational and professional background matches the project in hand.

The performance of our translators is monitored based 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:

1. must have a relevant first degree, postgraduate qualification or corresponding qualification
2. 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 Norwegian language.

Norwegian language, member of the North Germanic, or Scandinavian, group of the Germanic subfamily of the Indo-European family of languages. It is spoken by about 4 million people in Norway and another million in the other Scandinavian countries and North America. Norwegian is a daughter language of Old Norse (see Germanic languages; Norse language). Today there are two official forms of Norwegian: bokmål [book language] and nynorsk [new Norwegian]. Bokmål, also called riksmål [national language] and Dano-Norwegian, was greatly influenced by Danish, which was the dominant language of officialdom when Norway was under Danish rule (1397–1814). Today, because of the closeness between Norwegian, Swedish and Danish, there is a lot of fluidity between the languages. Norwegians are able to understand around 88% of spoken Swedish, and 73% of spoken Danish. Conversely, Swedes understand 48% of Norwegian and the Danes 69%.
