Translation ist understanding and being understood ...
Linguistic competence is based on two factors:
Working regularly with a language and the experience in dealing with specialized topics and vocabularies.
Christoph Baumeister Translation and Interpreter Service offers you both.
Over 30 years of experience in translating and interpreting and an extensive knowledge of a wide variety of specialized fields. Based on this professionalism, you can be sure that you not only get a literal translation, but also one that suits the mentality of the audience. Our translators are not only native speakers, but also have the expertise needed in a wide variety of specialized fields.
Traditional knowledge and state-of-the-art technology
There is a growing influence of technological developments on language – the communication possibilities are becoming much more diverse.
Communication in all languages and for all media is therefore becoming more and more important to your success. We follow this modern trend by using state-of the-art technology. This includes computer-assisted translations, which in conjunction with new media opens a variety of new possibilities.
Let there be no misunderstanding: A computer does not give you a finished translation and is no substitute for a qualified translator. It is an important tool that helps meet the complexity of today’s requirements.
Um keine Missverständnisse aufkommen zu lassen: Der Computer fertigt keine Übersetzungen an und kann den qualifizierten Übersetzer nicht ersetzen. Er ist aber ein wichtiges Instrument, das dabei hilft, der Komplexität der heutigen Anforderungen gerecht zu werden.
Solutions
Specialized texts of all kinds require a translator that not only has the mastery of the target language, but also one that has a sound technical and scientific knowledge of the individual disciplines. Since the various disciplines cannot be handled by one person, we work with over 150 freelancers of different nationalities. As a rule they only translate into their mother tongue an in the respective discipline. This ensures a professional translation with the mentality of the target audience in mind.

In cases where it makes sense, advertising copy is translated by our foreign partners. Language is also subject to changing times, and in certain cases it may be advantageous to have a translation prepared in the mother country – especially advertising copy.
This is especially true when you translate advertising copy, for example, when an ad is to appear in England, America or Australia you must be aware of local colloquialisms. The same applies for French translations. An ad placed in France, Belgium, French-speaking Switzerland or other French-speaking countries requires its own linguistic style.
We can also provide you with transcription services. We accurately, quickly and inexpensively transcribe your text.
This way you relieve your staff of the tedious job of inputting text and avoid the need for separate proofreading.
