African Translation

Tel.: +1 800 664 0603
Website: Africantranslation.com

This Washington D.C.-based agency specializes in many of the less commonly translated languages, including Amharic, Bambara, Dinka, Ewe, Ibo, Yoruba, and others. African Translation covers 42 different languages spoken in Africa, Asia, and elsewhere. They offer translation, interpretation, transcription, and voiceover services.

In a podcast interview published on Speakingoftranslation.com, African Translation managing partner Hailu Gtsadek says that many of the agency's clients are state courts, which use their interpreting service.

In the same interview, Gtsadek speaks of the challenges of offering linguistic services in rarely translated languages. There is a lack of reference resources, he says, as well as a shortage of trained translators and interpreters. According to the interview, the agency's recruitment process involves reaching into communities for aspiring translators and interpreters, screening candidates through aptitude tests, and then providing new translators with training.
