The right-to-left difference
Layouts that survive Arabic
Arabic is not just different words: the whole page changes direction. Margins swap sides, images move, tables reverse, type stretches. We rebuild the layout so the Arabic version looks as considered as the original.
- Every layout mirrored by hand, never by a plugin
- Correctly shaped Arabic type, no broken letters
- Checked by native speakers before delivery
How we work
From source files to shipped Arabic
Send the source
Share files, a build or a link. We quote on the real scope within one working day.
We localise
Native linguists translate and adapt while engineers handle the right-to-left build.
QA in context
We check the result where users will see it: the live page, the build, the player, the PDF.
You ship
Delivery in your own format, with a named contact and revisions included.
For agencies
The Arabic desk behind your agency
Much of our work arrives through other translation companies. We stay invisible, you stay the contact.
White label as standard
Your client never sees our name. NDAs are signed before we see a single file.
Overflow and rescue
Send the Arabic work your team cannot fit this month, or the right-to-left job that broke in DTP. We return it fixed.
Rates built for resale
Volume pricing quoted per project within one working day, stable across the year.
One language, many markets
Standard Arabic, plus the voice your market expects
One Arabic does not fit all. We write Modern Standard Arabic for formal and pan-Arab audiences, and adapt to regional voices when a market needs to feel local. We will tell you honestly when that matters and when it does not.
The same question, three markets. Choosing the right one is part of the job.
Questions
Asked before every first project
Do you provide certified translations?
No. This studio does localisation and creative work only. For certified document translations accepted by UK authorities, use our sister company Arabic Translation UK.
Which Arabic do you write?
Modern Standard Arabic by default, because every Arab market reads it. When a project needs to feel local we adapt to Gulf, Egyptian, Levantine and other regional voices, and we tell you when that is worth doing.
How is pricing calculated?
Per project: words for text, minutes for video and voiceover, screens for courses, pages for layout work. You get one fixed quote before we start, usually within one working day.
Do you work with agencies under NDA?
Constantly. White label is standard, NDAs are signed before we see a file, and your client never hears our name.
Can you build a course rather than localise one?
Yes. Send a brief and source material and we script, record and build the course in Arabic from the start, delivered as a tested SCORM or xAPI package.
Where are you based?
Cardiff, United Kingdom, as part of the Lingo Service group, working with clients and agencies worldwide.
