What is English translation?
English translation is the process of rendering content from English into Vietnamese or from Vietnamese into English while preserving the document's meaning, context and intended use. Specialist documents require more than correct word choices: they also need appropriate terminology, consistency and a style adapted to the intended readers.

What matters in specialist English translation?
A good specialist translation must convey the content accurately, use correct terminology and suit its intended readers. Documents should therefore be classified from the outset instead of applying the same approach to every field.
Consistent terminology
A term must be used consistently throughout the document, especially in contracts, technical materials and internal documents.
Accurate context
English words can have several meanings. The translation should be chosen according to the sentence, subject area and document's purpose.
Appropriate style
Contracts require precise wording, marketing needs natural language, technical documents need clarity and user instructions must be easy to understand.
Preserved formatting
Tables, headings, contents pages, section numbering and structure should be handled appropriately so the translation is easy to use and compare with the original.
How is English translation priced?
The cost of English translation is usually determined after reviewing the document. Key factors include content volume, translation direction, specialist complexity, file format, editing requirements and delivery time. Short documents may be priced per page/document; longer projects may be based on word count or the actual workload.
Content volume
The number of pages, words or actual amount of content is a key factor in determining the cost.
Specialist complexity
Legal, technical, financial and medical documents often require more time for research and terminology review.
Delivery time
Urgent requests may require priority allocation of resources. Feasibility is confirmed after reviewing the workload.
Formatting & additional requirements
Hard-to-read scans, complex tables, DTP, editing and bilingual requirements may affect the workload.
English translation quality control
The aim is to reduce errors in meaning, terminology, proper names, figures and presentation before delivery. The level of review is adapted to the document type and project requirements.
Accurate content
Priority is given to conveying meaning accurately, avoiding omissions and limiting interpretation beyond the source content.
Correct terminology
Check context and maintain consistent terminology, especially across projects with multiple pages or files.
Figure checks
Review dates, amounts, codes, units of measurement and data that could have consequences if translated incorrectly.
Formatting checks
Check tables, headings, section numbers, line breaks and layout to make the translated document easy to use.
Pre-delivery review
Translate → review content → check terminology/figures → check formatting → finalize the deliverable.
Confirm the deadline
Turnaround time is confirmed according to the actual workload and requirements rather than a blanket commitment for every document.
Document confidentiality
Customer information and document content are used to process orders in accordance with internal procedures.
Flexible delivery
Electronic file delivery and hard-copy options are available to suit the needs of each set of documents.
