Academic Transcript Translation Services
Official Certified Translation of School and University Diplomas and Transcripts
Academic document translation services. Well, that should be pretty straightforward, should it not, irrespective of the type of academic document for higher education that needs to have official certified and notarized translation and an Apostille translation.
Academic translations which consist of transcripts translations, official certified translations of CVs, resumes, research papers, academic articles, report cards, school and university diplomas, degree certificates, theses and dissertations, scientific paper translations and course descriptions must be accurate. That’s the rule, right?
You’d be surprised!
First, there’s the story of St. Jerome of Dalmatia, often known as the patron saint of professional translators.
Born in the 4th Century AD, St. Jerome grew up to famously study Hebrew for the purpose of translating the Old Testament into Latin from the original, an academic exercise if there ever was one.
It’s important to understand that the conventional translations of the time were performed from third-century Greek instead. This is important because it illustrates how easy it was for other scholars from St. Jerome’s time and afterward.
This enabled numerous scholars to catch a rather glaring mistake that St. Jerome very famously made.
When Moses descended from Mount Sinai, the original text describes how his head was surrounded by a “radiance”. In Hebrew, the word is “karan”. Sadly for St. Jerome, Hebrew is written without vowels, and he mistook the word “keren” for “karan”. “Keren” means “horned”. So in St. Jerome’s translation, he believed that the original Hebrew word indicated that Moses was a “horned” when he descended from Mt. Sinai.
It’s a gruesome tale, but once again it illustrates that translating academic texts for peer-review publications is not an easy task. Now you see just how important it is to have an academic translation agency that employs certified translators with experience in providing diploma and transcript translation services on your side.

Official Translation Services for Researchers
The correct approach is to translate only what’s in front of you, while paying extra careful attention to how the translation could be misinterpreted. The ideal solution in such cases of potential mistranslation is work hard to find an equivalent word in the other language that reflects all of the meaning of the original.
For this reason, academic translation services are more of an art than a science. A good academic document translator knows how to think from the point of view of both the speaker of the first language and of the reader of the second language.
Latin Diploma Translation Services
You would be amazed how often amateur translators embellish on what they find in the original text in order to explain it in another language. It happens a lot with Latin translations to English of academic documents. It often happens because of the differences in the way that foreign languages are organized. Even the Romance languages, which are very similar to one another, can have major differences in the way that common thoughts get expressed. The problem becomes exacerbated the further apart that the cultures behind the languages are.
