Testimonials

"I have great pleasure in recommending the work of Mr. Simões [owner of Assistech] for translation from English into Portuguese. The work he has done for us recently has been of excellent quality and was carefully and thoughtfully produced. I have spent ten years in Brazil and have a good knowledge of the language and I have been impressed with the accuracy of Mr. Simões' work, also his ingenuity, in the case of song texts, in finding appropriate translations of the idiomatic expressions with which English abounds." - Dr. Marshall Cartledge, Up with People

"On various occasions I counted on Oliveira [Simões] to help me with translation jobs, in which he also proved to be excellent." - Prof. Nivea Parsons, former Director of the Portuguese Language Program at the University of Arizona

"Mr. Simoes was an effective writer and a very sensitive and effective respondent in the writing groups. (...) He is an intelligent and articulate professional who knows how to reflect on his broad experience." - Dr. Thomas Miller, English Professor, University of Arizona

"Oliveira is a very dedicated, reliable, and knowledgeable translator. In addition to being up-to-date with current affairs, he is an avid reader, and an outstanding writer in both Portuguese and English. When he translates, he is not only concerned about conveying well what the original text expresses, but his final product is fluid and eloquent." - Olivia Ramos, Translator, Language Consultant, and ESL/Portuguese Instructor

"I am truly amazed at the efficiency and smoothness of your [company]'s operations from Alpha to Omega. Especially, in the way you keep a customer apprised at each point of the process. (...) Your philosophy in taking care of your clients is very unusual and should set the standard for other companies." - Louis Larralde, retired Regional Director for the Texas Commission for the Blind

Examples of bad translation

As the name suggests, a machine translation is done by a machine rather than by humans. It is also called automatic translation and it normally doesn't sound like natural language. Oftentimes, errors abound in machine translations. Languages present complexities that cannot be easily rendered by a machine. A poor translation may cause unintended damages, especially in the realms of law, business, and even personal matters. Google Translator and Babelfish are probably the best known examples of machine translators.
