Request a quoteWhat non-native translators and machine translation miss in Fijian
Many teams speak good Fijian and AI tools translate in seconds. Yet in business, legal and medical Fijian texts, non-native translators and machine translation make the kind of mistakes that cost you credibility or legal validity. A few examples we prevent:
Confusion with Fiji Hindi
Voorbeeld:Alongside Fijian, the Indo-Fijian population speaks Fiji Hindi (Fiji Hindustani); a single set of documents may appear in both languages plus English.
Onze aanpak:We establish the source language first, before we pair you with a translator.
English as the document language
Voorbeeld:In Fiji, English is often the official document language of government, education and the courts. A document 'from Fiji' is not automatically 'in Fijian'.
Onze aanpak:We assess the source document and confirm the actual source language in the quote.
Distinct letter values
Voorbeeld:Fijian spelling uses distinct sound values: c is /ð/ and b, d, g and q are prenasalised. A literal letter-for-letter reading produces errors.
Onze aanpak:We work with a translator who commands the Fijian orthography.
Mixed dialects
Voorbeeld:Marked differences between east and west, and between islands, make an arbitrary choice of variant risky.
Onze aanpak:By default we choose Bauan; where you need a specific island dialect we confirm it up front in the quote.
Waar Fijian wordt gesproken
Fijian is not the only language of Fiji. Alongside Fijian, the Indo-Fijian population speaks Fiji Hindi, and English is often the official document language of government, education and the courts. A document 'from Fiji' is therefore not automatically 'in Fijian'. We establish the source language first and select standard Bauan as the target variant unless you need a specific island dialect.
