Request a quoteWhat non-native translators and machine translation miss in Kazakh
Many teams speak good Kazakh and AI tools translate in seconds. Yet in business, legal and medical Kazakh texts, non-native translators and machine translation make the kind of mistakes that cost you credibility or legal validity. A few examples we prevent:
Script confusion
Voorbeeld:A document may be drawn up in Cyrillic, in the new Latin script or — from China — in Arabic-script Kazakh, and the three are not interchangeable.
Onze aanpak:We establish the correct source variant before we begin and confirm it in the quote.
Transliteration of proper names
Voorbeeld:Kazakh names and place names are often transliterated through Russian, which then differs from the spelling on the passport or certificate.
Onze aanpak:We keep transliteration consistent with the source document and your official identity papers.
Kazakh confused with Russian
Voorbeeld:Russian is widespread in Kazakhstan as a second official language, so source documents are regularly partly or wholly in Russian.
Onze aanpak:We establish the actual language combination per document and match it to your request.
Terminology in transition
Voorbeeld:Because of the script and spelling reform, older and newer term variants exist side by side, particularly in legal and administrative texts.
Onze aanpak:We work from a per-project glossary and hold consistently to the variant that suits your purpose.
Waar Kazakh wordt gesproken
Kazakh is written in more than one script side by side. Documents from Kazakhstan are usually drawn up in Cyrillic, but the new Latin script appears more and more often as the state reform rolls out, while Kazakh documents from China may be in Arabic script. Russian is also widespread in Kazakhstan, so source documents are often partly or wholly in Russian. We establish the source variant before we begin and confirm that choice up front in the quote.
