Request a quoteWhat non-native translators and machine translation miss in Fulfulde
Many teams speak good Fulfulde and AI tools translate in seconds. Yet in business, legal and medical Fulfulde texts, non-native translators and machine translation make the kind of mistakes that cost you credibility or legal validity. A few examples we prevent:
A macrolanguage with wide variation
Voorbeeld:A source document is supplied as "Fulfulde" when it is in fact Pulaar from Senegal or Pular from Guinea — the varieties differ markedly in spelling and vocabulary.
Onze aanpak:We identify the variety per assignment and assign a translator who commands the region the document comes from.
Noun classes and word formation
Voorbeeld:Fulfulde has an extensive noun-class system that governs prefixes and suffixes; a literal word-for-word approach produces grammatically incorrect translations.
Onze aanpak:A translator who commands the language as a system translates the meaning, not the isolated word.
Several writing systems
Voorbeeld:Alongside the Latin script, Ajami (Arabic-based) and the modern Adlam script also appear, with different spelling and reading direction.
Onze aanpak:We confirm up front which script and spelling are used in your source and target documents.
An oral tradition versus the written language
Voorbeeld:Many speakers are literate in French, English or Arabic rather than in Fulfulde, so source documents are often in another language or call for a spoken intake.
Onze aanpak:Where needed we combine the written translation with an interpreter for the spoken intake, and set the approach in the quote.
Waar Fulfulde wordt gesproken
Fulfulde is not a single market. A document from Senegal or Mauritania (Pulaar) uses different spelling and vocabulary from a document out of the Fouta Djallon in Guinea (Pular) or from northern Nigeria, where Hausa and English leave their mark. We match variety, spelling and register to the country your document comes from and the body it is bound for, and confirm that choice up front in the quote.
