For millennia, sports have helped bring people closer together, and now with the help of television and the Internet, anyone, anywhere can watch the same events whatever their language. However, this globalization of sport brings with it the challenge of bridging language barriers.
Finding the right translators and interpreters for sports events is difficult because it involves more than just translating a language: successful translation for sports requires specific skills: accuracy and speed, knowledge of the sport, and charisma - especially for those appearing on television. Translators also need a good feeling for sport in general, especially in cases where the cultural context might be important.
With 20 years of experience in supporting big international sports events, including the 2018 Olympics, we at Translink have repeatedly proved that our interpreters and translators have what it takes to get the message across. Let us root for your team. Work together with us!
