Why would you need Italian Translation?

Business people
A business might be dealing with a product or service which has a potentially good market in Italy. But the business is situated in a country outside Italy. In such a case the business man would need English to Italian translation for all documents like publicity, technical and legal materials. The translation needs to be accurate and of the highest quality.
Students/ Researchers/ Writers
Since a large number of quality academic material is published in English, Italian students and researchers who do not understand the language would be helped by Italian translations of such books. This is also valid for books in other languages, say Russian. Moreover there are a number of books written in Italian which would appeal to the readers of other countries like the USA. This is also a good business prospect for publishers of academic texts.
The Consequences of an Inferior Italian Translation
April 15th, 2009“Traficante” is an Italian mineral water company which was welcomed by Spain’s underworld, the reason? Its name was translated directly into Spanish. And its literal Spanish meaning is “drug dealer”.
The above may sound like a joke, but it is true. Imagine the losses the mineral water company faced just because it did not ensure quality translation. What is more unfortunate is that such events are alarmingly frequent.
Inferior Italian translations happen when the translators are not qualified and/ or experienced enough. They also happen due to use of automatic translators or free translation services which translate by replacing each word in the source document with its equivalent in the target language. Say if you are getting free English to Italian translation done, the translation software would go about the process by replacing each English word in the original document with its Italian equivalent. Such Italian translations have a probability of ending in fiasco as mentioned above.
Inexperienced translators are also prone to such errors. A person who is not well versed in both the languages involved in an Italian translation would likely make literal translation and when the other language apart from Italian is significantly different from Italian then the translated version would not reflect the meaning of the original as intended.
