Frequently Asked Questions

Does Arabic (or Chinese, or Korean) cost more than Spanish? And why?

Yes, Arabic technical translation does cost more than Spanish technical translation. This is the market at work: there are many more Spanish language translators than Arabic. Plus, Arabic presents font and formatting issues not found with Spanish translation. Generally, the more expensive the per-word rate for a language, the lower the volume of translation worldwide in that language.
