Localization Services in Korea

DID YOU KNOW?    

LOCALIZATION SERVICES (occasionally referred as "l10n") is the provision of professional services to adapt a service or product to various languages, cultural context, and with the required local "look-and-feel". A product or service should always be developed with localization in mind, so that localization is relatively easy to achieve. Example would be by creating technical drawings for product guides in which the text can be easily reproduced in another language and which would allow adequate space for a professional LOCALIZATION SERVICES provider to work on. This process that enable the implementation of localization is commonly termed internationalization. It is believed, that a product or service that is internationalized is easier to localize than a product or service being internationalized after it is fully developed. This intricate process of preparing a product or service for localization services provider to localize it into a different language context is also sometimes known as globalization.

In providing LOCALIZATION SERVICES for a product or service, Elite Translations Korea will also include details such as time zones, currency, local public holidays, local cultural taboos or color sensitivities, product or service names, gender roles, and geographic examples, in addition to idiomatic language translation. The desired result of a successfully localized service or product would be that the product or service “look and feel” as though it originated from the target language culture that it is localized for.
