FAQ about German-Estonian translation

Why use a translation agency for German translation?

Translating is a high-responsibility job that requires accuracy and quality, but above all, understanding the original message and having the ability to convey it fluently. When translating from Estonian to German and vice versa, there is no room for errors in important areas. If something in a legal contract or medical manual gets lost in translation, it can have unpleasant and even dangerous consequences. Order your Estonian-German translations from a professional translation agency. This way, you can be sure that the text will be handled by translators who are native speakers of the target language, many of whom specialise in the most complex fields.

How quickly are German translations completed?

Filoloog replies to price queries within 1 hour on weekdays, also specifying the time frame that the client should take into account. German translation is completed according to the volume and content of the translation text. Generally, translations of less than 5 pages are completed by the next working day. In more complex fields such as law and medicine, we work with the client to ensure that we interpret all nuances correctly. When translating advertising texts, a slightly longer time margin must be taken into account, as it requires a creative and original approach to translation. Read more about our translation process.

What does the editing of a German text involve?

Language editing is part of every project to ensure that the text is grammatically correct, fluent, understandable and meets language requirements. German text is edited according to the grammatical rules and requirements of the German language, while ensuring that the text is fluent and unambiguous. The German texts of Filoloog are handled by translators and language editors who speak German at a native level.

How to find a reliable German translator?

A good translation has the same impact and information on the reader as the original text. A German translator must therefore understand more than words, grammar, and structure to fully capture the author’s message. The most accurate translation is achieved by translating from a foreign language into the language that the translator is most fluent in. This means translating into your native language or into a language that you know as well as your native language. At Filoloog Translation Agency, German translators have native-level fluency. This means that you can be sure that the translation you order from us will be fluent, natural, and grammatically correct – and most importantly, it will convey the same information and emotions to the reader or listener as the original text.

How to translate from German to Estonian yourself?

Depending on the level of language proficiency, it is possible to translate Estonian-German using your own language skills. Where skills are lacking, you can find help from dictionaries (Glosbe, Linguee), various machine translation programs, as well as Google Translate and ChatGPT. When using them, it is worth paying attention to the different options and nuances of the programs, not forgetting that the final text must definitely be proofread and edited by a human. Machine translation still makes mistakes in the use of language rules and in the case of complex grammatical structures and contextual nuances. Programs, no matter how smart they are, are still not at the same level as our knowledge, skills, and natural language instinct.

What are the best websites and apps for translating into German?

In 2024, the most widespread machine translation programs were DeepL, Google Translate, Microsoft Translator, Amazon Translate and ChatGPT. All of these translation programs have both free versions and paid add-ons. Online translation programs vary in the number of languages and special features. Some of them also offer image translation and features in areas such as business, education, etc. Some machine translation programs also allow you to customise the translation style, hide inappropriate content, etc. See an overview of all translation programs.

What are the differences between a translation agency, machine translation, AI, and Google Translate?

Various machine translation programs, websites, and mobile applications can help with German-Estonian and German-English translations. They can be used to quickly translate simpler German texts. It should be borne in mind, however, that machine translation also requires human follow-up and editing. We also do not recommend using translation programs for vitally and commercially important texts (law, medicine, science, etc.), as it involves the risk of having information be changed or completely lost in translation.

It is important to know that machines and AI will not maintain the confidentiality of your texts, but use them for their own development and training. Therefore, if you add a text to a public machine, its content is known to the whole world. For important and confidential texts, we always recommend contacting a professional translation agency. This way, you can be sure that the text remains confidential and the translation will be as close to the original as possible, conveying the message accurately also in the target language.

In conclusion: with vitally and commercially important texts, it is always advisable to use the help of professional translators from a translation agency. For quick everyday understanding of a text (German user manual, recipe, article, etc.), machine translation programs, Google Translate and AI are probably sufficient to convey the message if you have enough knowledge of the target language to double-check that the translation came out more or less correct.
