Multi-lingual Literature



                                  Would your industry like to �.

                                           Communicate effectively in other languages?

                                           Manage written language in a flexible way?

                                           Produce multi-lingual documents at the touch of a button?



A Practical Solution



You can incorporate expressions into your own style of documents and then immediately access the

correct translated output. It’s simple using a database of translated expressions together with new low

cost software. The software is available now; databases are starting to be compiled.



Where can it be applied?



Any application that uses a routine set of expressions can benefit from this approach. This means any

in which specific information needs to be understood by those whose first language is different from

yours. Examples are safety instructions, business letters, emergency signs, menus etc., etc. but see

the next page for examples in major sectors.



What is the benefit?



This solution uses expressions that have been professionally translated for their specific context. It

allows users to style documents as they want using prepared expressions and achieve immediate and

accurate translated versions. It saves time and cost by avoiding the need for continual translations.

The concept has been successfully used in the chemical industry for many years and has been

adopted within the EU for its many languages. With the advent of new low cost software, it is now a

viable option for wider use. An alternative approach is to use computer translation � free via the

Internet � but this is notoriously inaccurate and can create uncertainty or provide the wrong information

often in a laughable way. This is unacceptable if you want to communicate accurately and

professionally.



What sort of expressions should be compiled?



Expressions are normally sentences, descriptions or headings. They need to be designed for their

specific industry and application then translated by professionals who specialise in the required

languages. Many sectors are starting to assemble databases that can be tapped into � others need to

be prepared.



How does the software work - What languages can be used?



Language2OfficeTM is a low cost (£100) pc application that allows translated expressions to be

incorporated into Microsoft® Word or PowerPoint. It links directly to the compiled database of

expressions which can be in any language that can be held on Windows � including Greek, Chinese

etc - any which you are likely to want.

Use in Industry Sectors



Chemicals



Many businesses are currently using the software to produce multi-lingual MSDS (material safety data sheets)

and labels etc � for their global sales so as to comply with national regulations. A large range of professionally

translated expressions is available in over 35 languages.



Tourism



An initial database of expressions (hotel accommodation terms) has been produced by Tourism NorthEast and is

available on their web site (link can be supplied). The potential is that each local hotel, leisure centre, restaurant,

museum or other centre is able to produce customer and staff information in any required language. Suggested

examples are:



                     GUEST/VISITOR INFORMATION                                     STAFF COMMUNICATIONS



    Letters to confirm reservation          Notices in public areas                    Staff Handbook/Terms of

    Contracts                               Signs                                      Employment

    Information on arrival                  Tour Guide Literature                      Staff Instructions

    Registration Cards                      General advice on services and             Staff Induction

    Welcome Pack                            facilities in guest rooms                  Guidance and Training

                                            Fire/emergency instructions in             Instructions in work place

                                            public areas/guest rooms                   COSHH/HACCP Advice

                                            Menus



                       Languages � those of customer                               Languages � those of staff







Health



A multi-lingual set of expressions has been published on the internet by the British Red Cross for use in

emergency medicine (link can be supplied). The potential is that initial patient communication using these

phrases will help identify the need for immediate treatment whilst waiting for an interpreter � if needed.
