Common questions
The questions most buyers ask before sending the first file. Plain-English answers.
Do you do machine translation?
No. We use native-speaker translators. Machine translation is a useful tool for first-draft work but we do not deliver it as a final product.
Can you handle Russian-language testimony for US legal use?
Yes. We deliver the Russian transcript plus a certified English translation, both signed and notarized if needed.
What if the speaker switches languages mid-sentence?
Common in interviews. We mark code-switches with language tags and translate inline so the English transcript reads naturally.
