Professional Book Translation

Human book translation with careful attention to language, context, and consistency.

A book translation should carry the meaning, tone, and emotional weight of the original into another language.

We translate every manuscript with close attention to your writing style, tone, dialogue, and the meaning behind the words. The goal is not simply to replace one language with another. It is to create a professional literary translation that feels natural to read while staying true to the original work.

Every book is translated by one dedicated translator from beginning to end. No AI is used to translate your manuscript, and your files are never submitted to AI tools.

We work with fiction and nonfiction across all genres, including full-length books, novellas, short stories, and other written material.

Professional Book Translation With Dedicated Support

Stay connected with your translator from the first chapter to final delivery.

Translating an entire book is a long project, so you should never have to send your manuscript away and wonder what is happening with it.

Once your order begins, one translator is assigned to your project. You can contact them directly through the chat in your customer account, ask questions, provide additional information, and follow the progress of your translation as it moves through each milestone.

If something in your manuscript is unclear, your translator can ask you directly instead of guessing. This is especially important when working with character details, unusual terminology, intentional wording, or choices that depend on the wider context of the story.

Your completed translation is delivered as a DOCX file, and one round of revisions is included after delivery. If you also need your translated manuscript prepared for publication, professional book formatting can be ordered separately.

Before You Order

Before placing your order, make sure the manuscript you provide is the version you want us to translate. Along with the text, you can share information about your intended audience, preferred tone, character names, fictional terminology, recurring phrases, or any language choices that should remain consistent throughout the translation.

If your manuscript contains unusual expressions, invented words, cultural references, or passages where the intended meaning may not be obvious from the text alone, include any context that may help your translator understand them correctly. You can also provide previous translations, terminology lists, style references, or other materials relevant to the project.

Your manuscript does not need to be formatted for publication before translation. Professional book formatting is a separate service and can be ordered after the translated manuscript is complete.

FAQ

What is included in Professional Book Translation?

Your manuscript is translated by one dedicated human translator from beginning to end, with attention to meaning, tone, dialogue, terminology, and consistency. The completed translation is delivered as a DOCX file, and one round of revisions is included after delivery.

Is my book translated by a human?

Yes. Every manuscript is translated by a professional human translator. We do not use AI to translate your book, and your manuscript is not submitted to AI translation tools.

Will the same translator work on my entire book?

Yes. One translator is assigned to your project and works on the manuscript from beginning to end. This helps maintain consistent terminology, character voices, tone, and writing style throughout the translation.

Can I know the name of my translator?

For privacy and internal company policy, our translators communicate through the customer workspace and their personal details are not disclosed.

What types of texts can you translate?

We work with full-length books, novels, nonfiction, novellas, short stories, and other written materials. The available word-count range depends on the material type selected in the configurator.

Can I request a sample translation first?

Yes. You can request a sample translation before purchasing the whole manuscript translation. To request a sample, reach out to us via the contact page.

Can I communicate with my translator?

Yes. Once your project begins, you can communicate with your assigned translator through your customer workspace. You can answer questions, provide additional context, clarify terminology, and follow the progress of the translation.

Should my manuscript be finished before I order?

We recommend submitting the final version of the manuscript you want translated. Changes, rewritten sections, or additional text supplied after translation has started may fall outside the original scope and may require an additional quote.

  1. Mark

    Quick turnaround. The localized text reads well according to my native proofreader.

  2. Kevin

    I don’t speak French so I was nervous, but the reviews from my French readers are solid. No complaints.

  3. Anthony

    Not only translated it well but kept my weird epub formatting intact. Saved me a lot of time.

  4. Thomas

    Great work. Finished 3 days early and answered all my stupid questions about the process.

  5. Brian

    Honestly, I was scared they’d just run my book through DeepL and charge me for it. But my Spanish beta readers confirmed it’s legit human translation. Great job.

  6. Emma

    Had a really bad experience on Fiverr before, so I was skeptical. These guys fixed the mess the previous translator left. It actually sounds natural now.

  7. Mia

    Really happy with the result. Reviewers pointed out zero weird phrasing on Amazon, which is rare for translated self-pub books.

  8. Olivia

    Super fast. Good price for the word count. Uploaded to KDP without any formatting headaches.

  9. Amelia

    Awesome work. Just got it uploaded to Amazon and it looks great. The translator actually asked questions when a joke didn’t translate well, which I appreciated.

  10. Harper

    Solid agency. They handled a massive word count without dropping the ball on quality.

  11. Matthew

    Honest review: they aren’t the cheapest out there, but you actually get what you pay for. Good communication throughout.
