Russian translations by specialised translators (native speakers): Adaptation, localisation, transcreation, and creative services

Productive, appreciative, motivational. ConText® is a specialist language service provider for Russian translation, a translation agency that takes a rapid, unbureaucratic approach to business relationships based on trust to the benefit of our clients. We have the flexibility and expertise to adapt to your individual requirements.

Our specialised Russian translators transfer all the content from your manuscript into the target language while preserving the original sense and meaning. Apart from that, our translators formulate the Russian translation for the intended target audience while retaining the style and undertone of the original.

This gives you top-quality Russian text in an accurate translation that reads like an original. We have not only mastered the art of Russian translation; translation is our passion – something we believe you will notice in the result.

Highly-qualified Russian translation agency – saving costs with cutting-edge translation technology

ConText® translators reuse previously verified sentences while also ensuring that any client terminology lists are applied consistently throughout the translation with the aid of state-of-the-art translation technology (CAT tools as well as translation memory and data mining technology).

This keeps the language style consistent in all Russian translations from ConText®. Our databases store predefined terminology lists as well as comments and corrections to be included in all Russian translations.

We translate and localise specialised texts from German and English into Russian and from Russian into German, or other languages.

The ConText® translation agency uses project management software developed in-house from order receipt to delivery of the final translation.

We provide a web portal for registered clients to place complex translation and localisation orders for Russian, upload the original documents, and download the translated texts.

A Russian project comprises individual client jobs such as translation, proofreading, localisation in multiple language combinations, and DTP.

We use CAT tools such as Trados, MemoQ, Transit and Translation Workspace to generate automated translation analysis if requested.

All Russian translations comply with the ISO 17100:2015 international quality standard to ensure completeness and form.

ConText® also supplies official translations from certified Russian translators.

Transcreation – localising the message behind your brand

Brands vie for attention in reaching the target audience. Imagine you have recently run a successful sales campaign in Russia, and you would like to repeat that for other markets. It usually takes good transcreation to carry your message out to consumers in all the world’s markets.

Advertising messages often contain a subtext that needs to be decoded correctly by the audience in the target market. The art of transcreation involves adapting the message your brand conveys while keeping your brand identity intact in every local market. Translators often take a more liberal and creative approach to this kind of job, as the texts – and visuals in many cases – need to be adapted for your message to hit the mark in an intercultural context.

Transcreation plays an essential role in successful intercultural advertising, communication and product marketing, as it ensures that the message is conveyed as intended to the target audience in each market.

The Russian language – characteristics and spread

Russian is the most widely spoken Slavic language and forms the East Slavic subgroup together with Ukrainian, Belarusian and Ruthenian. Standard Russian is based on Central Russian dialects originating from around Moscow.

Russian has about 145 million native speakers, 118 million of whom live in Russia. Russian is the official language of Russia, and an official language in Belarus (together with Belarusian) and Kazakhstan (together with Kazakh as the main official language), Kyrgyzstan (together with Kyrgyz as the main official language) and the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, which was part of Ukraine up to the beginning of 2014 (together with Ukrainian and Crimean Tatar). Some south-eastern Ukrainian oblasts have Russian as their official language, a status that is politically controversial. Russian is also one of the official languages in Transnistria (together with Ukrainian and Moldavian), South Ossetia (together with Ossetic) and Abkhazia (along with Abkhazian), states that are not recognised by international law. Russian is both the native language of part of the population and the language of a major part of public life in these states and regions. There are also Russian-speaking minorities in all of the CIS countries and the Baltic States.
