About tone of choice

What is transcreation and why is it important?

Transcreation is much more than translation. It’s the only way to avoid costly and embarrassing language issues and cringeworthy culture clashes.

It takes the original message and conveys it in another language, making sure that the text in the target language keeps the original style, vocal tone, intent, and emotional salience. It is a combination of discipline and art, translation and interpretation. It is the process that re-evaluates the marketing material produced for a local market and re-configures it in order to appeal to an audience with a very different culture.

The process of transcreation involves understanding the target market and carefully tailoring the message using suitable language, style imagery and tone for optimal appeal and effective messaging. This is the main reason why the process requires not only a good translator with linguistic skills but a translator with expertise in marketing and a firm grasp of the target audience’s culture.
