Translation Rates: How to get a 30% to 60% discount


Are you looking for a translation agency that is affordable and yet delivers high-quality content? Are you worried that many translation agencies may be overcharging and are looking for an agency that will help you get a discounted rate by 30% to 60%? We at Universal Translation Services sport some of the lowest rates on the market so our rates are already discounted when compared to other agencies providing the same level of quality. 

On another hand, we have the same flat rate no  matter what language combination you may need, while most of the other agencies don’t: they charge different prices depending on the language. While that may seem to be common practice in the translation industry, it shouldn’t.


Translation Between English And A Foreign Language: The translation rates become much friendlier if either the target or the original language for your translation is English. A person is going to get really decent rates if they have chosen English as a part of their language pair. The English language is cheapest to translate from and into and all other foreign languages cost more. This is because English is a commonly spoken language that is shared by millions. The rates for translating from English into another language or the other way around are usually cheaper by 30 to 60%.

Translation Between Two Languages while English is not one of them:

Universal Translation Services has seen that a person will find it harder to find a translator who can translate between two languages while English is not involved. This means that if you need, sat translation from French into Spanish, it will cost you more than translating French or Spanish into English. If a client is only needing translation from one language into English, we need to find a translator for that specific language.

 Which is not the case when you need translation from French into Spanish, as if there is no translator to do that specific language combination, we woukld need to use English as an intermediate language. That is fine, and it will cost you just a bit more if you go with us, but it will cost you a lot more if you choose another translation agency. On another hand, if a translator knows two languages well and none of them is English, that translator could translate directly withouth using a middle language, but then his rates will be considerably higher and this will increase the total cost the client needs to pay.

These are the basic principles behind how translation rates are decided. Translation rates are heavily dependent on the language and how expensive or inexpensive it is in the market. We re-explaining them to you so that you will have a chance of getting a 30% to 60 % discount on your translation without any problem or complication.

The Rates Variation:

The translation cost is decided based on rates per word in a certain language pair. If English is not in your language combination, it will cost you more. You will need to look around in all the agencies and try to come up with the most affordable translation rate per word for the language pair that you have in mind. Looking for a translation agency located in the country where one of your languages is spoken is an effective way to reduce the cost of the translation, simply because with that agency you may have higher chances of finding a translator who could do your ranslation directly from one language into the other. They will not ask for extra charges because it is their native language, to begin with. You need to note though that prices would be higher in Europe when compared to United States. Germany is well known for its higher prices for instance.

If your language pair contains English, then we advise that you look for an international agency as the translation will cost you less. English is a common language that is spoken in just about any country. As a general rule, if one of the languages you need is rated as a commonly spoken language, then the rates for your translation will reduce considerably.

We at Universal Translation Services are working with translators from all over the world so we can handle just about any language. And due to the very same reason, we have translators in our midst which can translate directly from one language into another without using English, and it will cost you the same. So before heading over to another agency, ask for your free quote, you’ll want to have it.

If you ask marriage counselors the biggest problem couples face, they will tell you it is miscommunication. But this problem is not limited to couples, most people these days don’t believe in talking things out and end up ruining their interpersonal relationships. Sadly, we can’t even blame the internet for this because it is the best tool in our hands if we want to reach out to friends or connect with relatives who live thousands of miles away. However, just like we don’t value things when they are lying around our room but develop an urgent need for them when we end up misplacing them, the need for communication increases when it becomes impossible. Languages in the World and The Need for Communication: There are over seven thousand languages that are spoken in the world. The number will keep on rising until we have discovered and classified all the vernaculars. But the thing about having way too many tongues is that people can’t talk to each other due to the language...
