Why is translation work so “expensive”?

Translation work is manual labour. Each sentence must be interpreted in the right context and then translated. Translators must look up difficult or technical words and consider the use of each word. The text then has to be checked for errors and omissions. All in all, this is a very time-consuming process. In addition, all our translators have been educated at university. These factors, when taken into consideration, lead to translations costing perhaps more than you may expect. Budgettranslations translation agency’s prices are actually lower than most other translation agencies. This is made possible due to our high level of automation, efficiency and use of translators in countries with a favourable exchange rate. Where possible, we do our best to pass these price savings onto our customers.
