What is Akorbis turnaround time on translations?
The duration of a translation project varies depending on several factors. Generally, more technical texts take longer than less technical ones. Additionally, our current workload and the specific language pair are other considerations. The average translator can translate around 2,000 to 3,000 words a day, depending on how technical the document is. Time must also be allowed for editing and proofreading. Although all Akorbi documents are 100% human-translated, through translation memory software and glossaries, translators are able to record words that have previously been translated in the particular context, and therefore shorten translation time with projects that have a high degree of repetitions. For faster turnarounds and high volume projects, Akorbi is able to put together special translator teams that, with the use of cutting-edge translation management systems, ensure quick delivery and consistency throughout the project.
