20 Dec Send your Best Wishes Through Google Translate
Professional businesses always use the expertise of a translation company for their formal communication with partners abroad. But how do managers or executives deal with the “informal communication” like Holiday messages? Are they using Google Translate?
Google Translate
Translation by machines
Google Translate is a tool that lets you translate phrases from one language to another. Although Google translate has become the stuff of jokes in recent years doesn’t mean it has stopped being useful. It is pretty handy today too. Whether you want to translate a greeting or a phrase that you read online, Google translate can assist you quickly.
But this doesn’t mean that Google translate is sufficient for all your translation needs. Google translate messes up translations more often than usual. When you are translating a phrase or a single sentence for fun, you can turn to Google translate. But for official and certified translations, you will have to find a translation agency or a highly qualified translator. The need for regular translations has given rise to translation agencies without any skill or experience. So it is better to stick with those translators and translation agencies who have thousands of successful translations to their credit.


Translate through Google
Since there is a growing trend of using the popular Google Translate we will put it to the test. Here is a Holiday message, in English, that we are going to translate through Google in various languages.
Since you asked Google Translate in the first place, you are probably not a native speaker, therefore you do not know if there are any mistakes or if you break any cultural boundaries.
A native speaker like the ones at Dutch Trans could help you avoid this hassle and will help put your message into context.
English Version:
”With appreciation for your business and with warmest wishes for a Happy Holiday Season and a prosperous New Year .”
