FAQ
Let me answer your questions.
Let me shed some light on the difference between translation and transcreation.
Translation involves reproducing the source text in another language, almost word for word. Transcreation focuses on recreating a text to appeal to a specific audience, often swerving from the original content to create something more engaging.
Choose transcreation if you want to enter a new market or adjust your marketing materials. Choose translation if you only need a faithful, yet idiomatic, reproduction of a text.
