ten years of direct experience in the field of translation. We leave nothing to chance when it comes to carrying out a translation, which is why we cannot allow our team to be joined by aspiring translators who, despite having the appropriate qualifications do not have the experience required in this field of work.The vocational profiles of our translators are available to our clients on request and their credentials can be verified. MMW offers clients the opportunity to directly interact with our team to solve any issues regarding the use of language.

The growing need for Italian businesses and professionals to relocate resources and services on the highly-competitive UK market has led to MMW opening a new translation office in the heart of the City to thereby follow and support its clients in their new business initiatives. Driven by its reputation in the field of language services, MMW EUROPE Ltd has established a branch in St. Jame’s Square, joining a team of professionals comprising a Notary Public, lawyers and tax consultants to provide a full range of advisory services and thereby help clients with any needs of a bureaucratic or legal nature in relations between Italian and UK businesses. Our London office can offer on-site translation and interpreting services for any language combination through native-speaking professionals based in the UK from the network of linguists in the MMW database. Thanks to the more streamlined bureaucracy in the UK, sworn translations, Notary certifications and legalisations with apostille are carried out directly in the office and therefore much more rapidly.

All our translations are “handmade” in a traditional manner using the vast range of terminology resources available but never with any kind of automatic translation software, with the exception of CAT tools, as we firmly believe that the specific products on sale are deceptive and misleading in terms of interpreting texts. Our staff is trained to use CAT (Computer Aided Translation) tools such as TRADOS and Déjà Vu, which can help translators to work efficiently. Computer aided tools can provide numerous benefits in terms of cost, language consistency in translated texts and integrated operations to create language and terminology databanks. These tools are particularly useful when translating operational handbooks, user handbooks, software development handbooks and balance sheets in which terms recur frequently.

The translator must proceed until he reaches the untranslatable; and then only will he have an idea of the foreign nation and the foreign tongue.

Johann Wolfgang Goethe, Maxims and Reflections, 1833 (posthumous)

Translation is like a woman. If it is beautiful, it is not faithful. If it is faithful, it is most certainly not beautiful.

Carl Bertrand, in Dante Alighieri, Divine Comedy, 1887/94 (preface)

There are phrases, that mean something only in another language, expecting their translator as a midwife.Elias Canetti, The Human Province, 1973

Woe to the makers of literal translations, who by rendering every word weaken the meaning! It is indeed by so doing that we can say the letter kills and the spirit gives life.Voltaire, Philosophical Letters, 1734

Any linguistic work translated into another language resembles someone going across the border naked

before donning clothes familiar on the other side.Karl Kraus, Pro Domo et Mundo, 1912

Poems that, on turning them into prose, fade.Friedrich Nietzsche, Posthumous Fragments, 1869/89
