Why choose The Lingoes?

Why choose The Lingoes?

Founded in 2003, we are a London-based, translator-led company which understands fully how to communicate consistently well messages of our clients in different languages across many cultures. All our translation is proofread and vetted as standard practice by an editor, unless advised otherwise, before delivery to all our clients, ensuring accuracy and flair. To further ensure consistency of terminology and style used in large projects, we use industry-led translation memory (TM) tools and terminology databases which can be provided to our clients for their approval upon request. Cost-savings can also be achieved for our clients with the use of TM when old materials are updated and recycled.

We are a corporate member of the Institute of Translation and Interpreting (ITI) (UK) and of the Association of Translation Companies (UK). Our in-house translators, interpreters and project managers are all university graduates, some of whom are also full members of the ITI and the Chartered Institute of Linguists (UK).

We only use interpreters whose records at the Criminal Record Bureau in the UK have been checked and cleared and have been professionally approved by us after having worked with them in on-site assignments.

Patents, Medical, Architecture, Engineering and Technical Journals

The Lingoes has been a trusted and regular supplier of patent translations to the European Patent Office for nearly 5 years. We specialise in handling difficult technical translation projects, such as medical journals, patents, clinical trials, construction project design briefs, building appointment documents and financial statements. The long-standing professional relationships we have built with doctors, engineers, accountants and IT professionals have helped us complete and deliver our projects successfully.

Over the years we have built a large corpus of technical terms in a wide range of subject areas with our translation memory tools – an invaluable asset to our handling of such difficult projects, normally shied away from by many non-technical translators.
