Languages
are our
world

Premier customers enjoy the utmost in personalised service with us. Fortunately, all our customers are premier customers.

You’ll hardly find any translation agency that doesn’t claim to provide customer services on a personal level based on mutual trust – but there are differences in interpretation.

Some language service providers, or LSPs, have project managers that often post their customers’ orders on web translation portals without asking their clients, and picking the first cheapest (but not necessarily the best) translator for the job. We take the trust you have placed in us more seriously.

We don’t view translations and other professional language services as a simple product, but as a communications project and a linguistic challenge; we only work with qualified and certified specialist translators whose performance is subjected to constant evaluation and review. Our translators have many years of experience and expertise in all of the fields that our customers come from.

The limits of language are the limits of our world

So what exactly is language? Is it just a tool to describe the world we live in? Or is it the other way round – can we only understand the world as far as our language lets us, the language we learned as children?

“The limits of my language means the limits of my world,” said Ludwig Wittgenstein, and there’s a lot of truth to that – overcoming language barriers means communication without limitation.

We are a highly qualified team of translators, copywriters, proofreaders, and copy editors, and we have specialised in creating, translating, and adapting specialist written content – especially advertising – between languages. We work in all of the world’s major languages from our head office in Mainz, Germany, and we have more than sixty professionals in full-time employment or under contract to ensure that your translation is professional and linguistically correct.

We handle our projects in teams – whether it’s an individual order or a whole package, we organise the individual work process within the team to ensure a smooth and professional end result.

Direct communication and a coordinated process help keep operating costs low while tapping into synergies across the board. Food, automotive, or medical equipment – whatever your specialisation, we always have the appropriate specialists at hand.

Give us a try. We’ll put in more than a good word for you.©

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

Goal-oriented, thorough, established. ConText® is a specialist language service provider for Sinhala 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 Sinhala 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 Sinhala translation for the intended target audience while retaining the style and undertone of the original.

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

Highly-qualified Sinhala 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 Sinhala translations from ConText®. Our databases store predefined terminology lists as well as comments and corrections to be included in all Sinhala translations.

Highly specialised Sinhala translation experts

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

The rapid rate of technological and scientific progress requires increasing depth of specialisation from translators.

Our specialist areas include business, law, IT, banking, construction, architecture, chemistry, biochemistry, medicine, pharmaceuticals, marketing, communications, and advertising. ConText® services include quality assurance from our in-house proofreaders.

Our quality, your assurance – translations into Sinhala at ISO 17100:2015 international quality standard

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 Sinhala, upload the original documents, and download the translated texts.

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

ConText® also supplies official translations from certified Sinhala 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 Sri Lanka, 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.
