Polish is the business language in trade with Poland and in industry and haulage. mots Tercüme translates contracts, technical documents, commercial correspondence and company papers between Polish and Turkish.
Polish letters
In addition to the Latin alphabet Polish uses letters such as ą, ę, ł, ż. If these letters are lost in an encoding conversion or turn into plain letters, the meaning can change; this is checked separately on delivery.
Industry and manufacturing
In partnerships with production plants in Poland, technical specifications, quality documents and occupational safety instructions are required in Polish. The grading of warning statements is preserved in translation.
Haulage
In international road haulage, transport documents and damage correspondence may arrive in Polish. The date, registration plate and amount fields are checked separately.
EU legislation
Poland is a member of the European Union, and the official Polish texts of EU regulations are published. In documents that refer to these texts, the official terms are taken as the basis.
Company types
Company types such as sp. z o.o. and S.A. are not translated; they are kept together with the trade name. The national registry number is carried over in the form found in the source.
Formal address
In Polish corporate correspondence formal address is built with special words of address. The Polish version of a Turkish letter is built on this form of address from the start.
Richness of declension
In Polish, nouns are declined in seven cases. In translation from Turkish into Polish the declined forms of institution and product names are used consistently; names that will not be declined are identified at the outset.
Number and date format
In Polish the decimal separator is a comma, the thousands separator is a space and the date is written in the order day, month, year. This format is preserved in financial documents.
Personal names
Polish surnames can take a different form according to the person's gender. In documents the person's name is written in the form shown on the identity document; it is not converted.
Official correspondence
Polish official correspondence has set opening and closing formulas. A corporate letter is built to suit these formulas; the content is not changed.
Joint production and the supply chain
In joint production run with suppliers in Poland, correspondence about orders, engineering change notices and quality complaints is translated on a regular basis. The translation memory preserves the terms in this correspondence.
From Polish into Turkish
When technical and legal texts with a Polish source are carried over into Turkish, long noun phrases are unpacked for the way Turkish reads. The meaning is preserved and the sentence structure is simplified.
When certification is needed
Poland is a party to the Apostille Convention. For documents to be submitted to a Polish authority, the sworn translation and apostille chain is planned at the start of the job.
Services requested together
Polish jobs most often come under technical translation, legal translation and legislation and standards translation.
Summary
In Polish corporate translation the detail of letters and declension determines how reliable the text looks. A delivery whose special letters are preserved and whose names are declined consistently raises no questions with the Polish reader.
