Spanish measured as Spanish, and content in 45 languages and regional variants

Translate into 45 languages and regional variants. Score and revise Spanish with Spanish reading tests. If a dose, a number or a "do not" could be lost, a human translator does it. Nothing is guessed.

What it does

  • Content in 45 languages and regional variants, including four Spanish variants, written back into your Word layout.
  • Spanish scored with Spanish formulas: SOL with an INFLESZ floor, and Fernández-Huerta.
  • A localize pass adapts examples, phrasing and the usted/tú choice to the variant you serve.
  • A clinical anchor gate marks a segment that would lose a dose, quantity or negation for a person, instead of guessing.
  • Integrity checks and one-click back-translation, so a reviewer can read the result in English.
  • Language Access Assurance: a qualified-reviewer role, a release block for unreviewed machine translation and an attestation record.

Spanish measured as Spanish

An English formula misreads Spanish

Spanish words have more syllables on average, so an English formula rates clear Spanish as harder than it is. We score Spanish with SOL, Fernández-Huerta and the INFLESZ scale, against a target for each document type.

Sample passage · Español (EE. UU.)

Tome 1 pastilla cada mañana con agua. Si se le olvida una dosis, tómela en cuanto se acuerde. No tome 2 pastillas juntas.

Nothing is guessed

Checked line by line, and read back in English

Numbers, negation, order and links are compared across languages. If a segment could lose a dose, a quantity or a "do not", it is marked for a human translator. One click shows a back-translation, so a reviewer can read the result in English.

How it works

  1. Step 1: Choose the language and variant

    Recommendations come from the states you serve. Your variant and tone locks apply.

  2. Step 2: Translate and localize

    Your glossary, protected terms and approved disclaimers carry over exactly.

  3. Step 3: Check integrity

    Numbers, negation, order and links are compared across languages. Risky segments go to "Needs human translation".

  4. Step 4: Measure and revise

    Spanish readability measures run against your target for that document type.

  5. Step 5: Approve and release

    A qualified reviewer approves. The approval is tied to the exact text and is voided if the source changes.

Translation safety, in five steps

  1. Step 1: Translate

    Content in 45 languages and regional variants, written back into your Word layout.

  2. Step 2: Measure

    Spanish scored with Spanish formulas, not English ones.

  3. Step 3: Check

    Numbers, negation, dates and links compared across languages.

  4. Step 4: Hand off

    Risky segments go to a human translator.

  5. Step 5: Approve

    A qualified reviewer signs off on the exact text.

Questions

Is the app itself in Spanish?

The app is in English. The content you create and translate can be in 45 languages and regional variants.

Does a machine translation count as a translation from a certified vendor?

No. That comes from a certified human vendor. Language Access Assurance gives your qualified reviewer the queue, the release block and the attestation record.

Can we use our language-service vendor?

Yes. Exchange files by XLIFF and use translation memory. Vendors can have their own reviewer accounts.
