Linguistic accuracy, in-depth cultural understanding, subject matter expertise, and localization best practices are all necessary components in ensuring success for any product or service entering the local market. Additionally, delivering high-quality, consistent Afrikaans medical translation requires the use of advanced AI translation technology combined with native, in-country linguists for a quick turnaround time.
