Professional and Accurate Localization Solutions
While Latin is not officially spoken, and often regarded as a “dead language”, Latin translations are crucial for the life sciences, as much of modern medical terminology is based in Latin roots. In addition to its close ties with the medical field, Latin is also still used in the legal field as well as Vatican City for official religious documents was used in the works of prominent historical figures like Newton, Nostradamus, and Descartes.
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, high-quality, consistent localization solutions for the Latin language requires advanced AI translation technology combined with native, in-country linguists for a quick turnaround time.
Latin History
Since its inception, estimated to be around 700 BC, Latin has changed drastically. The earliest known form, Old Latin, was the official language of the Roman Empire, before transitioning into Classical Latin and Vulgar Latin, otherwise known as Colloquial Latin. Over the 6th and 9th centuries, Vulgar Latin transitioned to be the originator of the Romance languages, which includes Italian, Spanish, French, and Portuguese to name a few. Still, today Latin roots are used across many different terms across theology, law, and medicine.
With so many different cultural nuances that vary across regions, the importance of understanding local communities is critical for ensuring success in whatever product or service is entering the market. Whether you are seeking Latin to English translations or English to Latin translations, it is essential to ensure the cultural appropriateness and local sophistication of every project entering or expanding in the life science market.

Latin Medical Translations
Translating Latin medical terminology can prove to be challenging – typically the content is highly technical, and any minor errors can result in delays in project completion, added cost, and potentially endanger patient safety. To ensure the highest-quality translation, utilizing professional subject matter expert linguists is crucial. In addition, for life science companies looking to expand their businesses into international markets, the need for culturally-sensitive and technically accurate medical translations, particularly from Latin into the target language, is key to success. As clinical trials are increasingly conducted abroad, and as the world shifts to become more connected than ever before, life science companies must work to globalize their products and services to meet the demands of Latin speaking consumers.
