Ancient Greek – Modern Greek

Ancient Greek culture had a decisive influence on the European continent and the lifestyle of people in this part of the world. The language of the Greek poets, scientists and philosophers also contributed significantly to this. Whether Aristotle or Plato, Pythagoras or Socrates, they all had a major influence on the development of Western culture with their writings.

And it is also their language, classical ancient Greek, which is still taught in humanist grammar schools in Germany today.

The language of the modern Greeks, on the other hand, Modern Greek, which has been spoken since the 16th century, tends to play an outsider role in foreign language teaching at German schools.

In addition to the low prevalence of Modern Greek language teaching, the Greek alphabet represents a further obstacle to communication between Germans and Hellenes. Although both the Cyrillic and Latin scripts have their origins in Greek characters, the individual letters of the scripts are sometimes quite different from one another.

As a result, comprehension problems begin when reading individual words. When it comes to translating a complete text from English into Greek, the help of a competent English-Greek translator is always required.

Greece as an important partner in the European Union and the eurozone

As a member of the European Union and the eurozone, the country in the south-east of the continent is now more than ever a valued partner for German companies, despite the language differences.

Due to its close economic ties within the EU, Greece is of particular importance to German companies. The absence of customs duties and restrictions facilitates economic cooperation and the exchange of goods and services.

Trade and tourism in particular are highly relevant for economic relations between Germany and Greece. Whether it’s about importing agricultural products, exporting machinery and equipment or tourism projects, the right words are always the basis for successful cooperation.

Clear and comprehensible translations bring economic benefits

It is therefore particularly advisable to use an experienced English-Greek translator for business projects. With his/her language skills, he/she makes a significant contribution to avoiding economic disadvantages caused by linguistic misunderstandings.

Incorrect or ambiguous translations can seriously jeopardize business success or even make it completely impossible. Our professionals know the pitfalls of language and are always able to skillfully avoid them. This ensures that a translation from English into Greek is not only error-free, but also clearly understandable and unambiguous.

Using the extensive language skills of competent translators in advertising

The correct translation of relevant texts can provide a decisive competitive advantage not only in the correct translation of contracts, but also in many other areas.

Especially with advertising slogans, pointed language and a feel for the subtle nuances of language are required. A perfectly designed flyer immediately loses its impact if the advertising text is not very meaningful and uninspired or even incorrectly formulated.

As a rule, only native speakers who are firmly rooted in the Greek language, both in speaking and writing as well as in reading and thinking, have the necessary knowledge to write a gripping slogan.

Clearly formulated operating instructions prevent economic damage

However, operating instructions for complex technical devices also pose a particular challenge for an English-Greek translator. In addition to precise and easy-to-understand language, technical terms that are not part of the general vocabulary are often required. A technical understanding of certain interrelationships helps to formulate operating instructions in such a way that operating errors and the resulting recourse claims are avoided.

In many cases, it is therefore advisable to entrust an experienced translator with the task of translating from English into Greek, also from an economic point of view.
