The shipping industry plays an essential role in the world. With shipping being an ever more globalized industry, people from a variety of countries work in the shipping business. It is therefore essential that any document to be translated into English is translated in a clear and unambiguous way, free from any region-specific idioms that may be misunderstood. Clarity is vital, since the men and women working on board a vessel often work with dangerous substances where there is no or little margin for error. Thus, it is imperative that all operation manuals be translated accurately.
It is because of this need for unambiguous language that the shipping industry has a somewhat set vocabulary. Many of the specialized terms used are narrow in meaning, yet to the untrained eye, they may be confused with meanings used in daily English. At YUZEN Translation, we have culture specific knowledge & specialist knowledge of the shipping industry, including an expansive vocabulary of shipping terms. We are also frequently updating our knowledge-base by attending lectures and researching any new terminology to make sure that your document is translated with precision.
