What is literary translation? Literary translation refers to the translation of dramatic and creative literature from ancient or modern languages into foreign languages, so that it can reach a new audience.
Literary translation is a particular type of translation. Instead of adopting an informative approach, it demands artistic and poetic fitness when conveying aesthetics. Because of exclusive cooperation with the best of the best linguists in literature, we are confident to guarantee you the finest quality of literature translating.

Literary Translation Expertise
We assemble a team of specialist literary translators with solid foundation in world literature and extensive practical experience in translating scripts, essays, novels, fiction and non-fiction, magazines, poetry, songs, and textbooks, etc. They excel in conveying the emotions and feelings the author intended into the target languages, ensuring every line will be true to the author’s voice while expressing their creativity in the target culture.

Many authors are afraid that their unique literary style will be forfeited during the translation process. This will never be the case with Wordsprime.
