Professional Translators for Afrikaans

Association of Professional Translators for the Afrikaans language. Translators are professional linguists who perform written translations, as opposed to oral or spoken translation, which is done by interpreters. In this type of associations we usually find translators specializing in many fields: technical, legal, medical, pharmaceutical and scientific. We might also find sworn/official translators who have been authorized by a South African agency or department.

Afrikaans translators are mostly freelancers working from home for their own clients or for translation agencies. They sometimes team up with other Afrikaans and other language translators and proofreaders to expand their range of services. The work of a Afrikaans translator consists of thoroughly understanding the text to be translated, getting to know the subject matter, carrying out terminology research and knowing the computer tools to help with translation, which will enable him/her to offer a cost-effective and quality work.

This particular South African association is made up of translators of various specializations and language combinations.  There is probably another association in South Africa focusing on sworn translators, technical translators, audiovisual translators or court translators. If there is any, you will find the link below.
