Latin America is composed of 33 countries, each with their own regional dialects and distinct cultures. Mexico alone has 10 major varieties of Spanish and hundreds of local dialects! When you are translating for a Latin American audience, just finding someone who speaks Spanish isn’t good enough; you need a regional expert to ensure that your message is received in the way it was intended.

Spanish Language Translation Services Tailored to Latin America and Central America
Etcetera Language Group fields a large team of specialists to ensure that your message is conveyed as accurately as possible wherever you do business, whether a formal or casual tone is required. Your order is handled by native speakers who understand the culture and conventions of the specific audience you are addressing.
Etcetera’s linguists are native to each country and are aware of the subtle differences existing from country to country. For example, Mexican Spanish uses decimal period instead of the Latin America decimal comma, only a knowledgeable linguist would know of this difference.
In terms of grammar and general conventions, written Spanish does tend to be fairly uniform between different countries and localities. The key is cultural understanding.
When translating from Spanish to English, you want to ensure that particular cultural references are not misunderstood. This is also true when in the opposing situation, with the added consideration of not accidentally using references that are confusing or offensive. Spoken Spanish in these various regions is an entirely different matter altogether!
Localities can have significant variety in grammatical constructions and even in having different names for common objects in normal conversation. If your project involves some sort of transcription or a script, it is that much more important that a translator be a native speaker with a strong understanding of how the dialect is used regionally and the particular quirks of the local cultures.
Desktop Publishing
Our services are not limited to simple text transcription. We have a team of professional graphic designers who will ensure that your translated prints and marketing materials have text that fits your desired design. Our translators are also familiar with the local culture of your target market and will help you tailor your message appropriately.
One of the biggest problems with English-to-Spanish translations, or other languages into Spanish, is that the changes in structure often greatly alter the length of the text, which can throw off a planned design scheme. Our translators are skilled at capturing the meaning and intent of your text and preserving it in a way that doesn’t disrupt your desired imaging.
Proofreading and Editing
You don’t have to compromise your message or your brand voice when you translate from one dialect to another. Our proofreading and editing services ensure that basic elements like grammar and structure are correct, and also ensure that nothing of your intent is lost in translation.
Etcetera Language Group’s team of professional proofreaders and editors are not only culturally familiar with your target market, but also experienced with handling all sorts of business and specialized document types.
The end result is a document or ad that is mistake-free, professional, polished, and something that a native speaker will read as being authentic.
Your message is tailored to the unique needs and preferences of whatever Spanish-speaking audience you are targeting. Regardless of where your customers or business partners might be located in Latin America, your translations will be in a local and familiar form that reads like it was written by a regional professional.
The editing portion of the work ensures that your message and meaning are brought over without any cultural misunderstandings and without compromising any attached graphic design elements. A proofreader then ensures that the spelling and grammar are polished to perfection.
