Language Services, Tranlation, Transcription -- The Language Doctors

July 18, 2012 - PRLog -- Welcome to the Language Doctors

“Language shapes the way we think, and determines what we can think about.”
- Benjamin Lee Whorf - Yale University (American Linguist renown for his research on the relation of language to thinking and cognition.)

The Language Doctors, Inc. (TLD) has provided the highest quality language services and linguistic services since 1994. Over the years we have completed thousands of projects, employing hundreds of contractors and generated millions of dollars of revenue for our community.

In 1999 TLD was the first Language Services Company in the United States to be awarded a GSA Schedule Contract. This contract facilitates the acquisition of our services by Federal, State and Local Government Agencies and establishes fair and reasonable pricing structures.

TLD offers comprehensive solutions to the language and communication needs of our clients. It is simple to work with TLD. We are just a phone call or an email away.
TLD translated our Distributed Online Correspondence System. The hard work and insights that they brought to this large translation effort resulted in a high quality product. . .”
- Scott Mason, US Social Security Administration

What is 508 Compliance?

Section 508 is a part of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, which requires electronic and information technology developed, procured, maintained, or used by the Federal Government be accessible to people with disabilities. TLD incorporates Section 508 access standards into our service and documentation so that our clients will be compliant in their future web releases.

Automated Machine Translations can help with general subject matter but for accurate and precise translations there is just no improving upon a qualified translator or translation team. TLD has been providing these precise translations and creating outstanding translation teams for almost 20 years. TLD’s Project Management Team carefully assess each new assignment, quickly establishing the needs and requirements to complete the work according to the clients specifications.

TLD’s Database is extensive with hundreds of resources. We take great care in matching the particular translators to your assignments ensuring that their education, experience and skill set matches the task at hand beyond the obvious match of language. For each Translation Project TLD designates specialized linguists to ensure the accuracy of the adaptation involving specialized terminology and phraseology.

Our government and private sector clients have come to rely upon the precision of TLD’s translation services as well as the professionalism of our project management staff.

TLD has been creating outstanding translation teams for almost 20 years. TLD has taken the lead in developing Nationality Neutral Spanish language adaptations for a number of government agencies including the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Nationally Neutral Spanish seeks to create universally comprehensible Spanish adaptations while eliminating local expressions that may be offensive or inappropriate to a Spanish speaking audience from a particular region or country.

Editing, Proofreading and Review are not extra services at TLD. We include these elements within the scope of your translation. Did another company provide you with translations that were wrong or inadequate? TLD can make assessments of previously translated documents that may require revision.
