Nous avons la patate!

Nous avons la patate!

Languages are full of curiosities!

In French, they say 'avoir la patate' – literally: 'to have the potato.' Sounds strange, but it actually means: to feel great, to be full of energy.

Expressions like these show how playful and vivid language can be – and how easy it is to get lost in translation when you only stick to the literal meaning.

At #espaTrans, we translate with linguistic finesse and cultural insight. So that your message doesn’t end up in the vegetable patch but reaches its target precisely.

Automation technology

Automation technology

They're lifting, sorting and packing: robots have become an integral part of modern industry.

What keeps them running? Precise automation technology. It enables machines to operate autonomously, making processes more efficient and reducing the need for human intervention.

To ensure this technology works reliably and effectively everywhere, one thing is essential: error-free communication. As a technically focused translation agency, we translate manuals, user interfaces, training materials and more for the automation sector.

And with such precision, even robots would applaud – if they could.

Romance languages

Romance languages

What makes Romance languages so fascinating?

They all derive from Latin – and yet differ significantly in sound, rhythm and character. From the musicality of Italian to the elegance of French and the passion of Spanish: each Romance language has its own distinctive charm.

At #espaTrans, we love this linguistic diversity – and offer precise, high-quality translations into all Romance languages. Whether it's a technical document, a marketing text or a love letter: we make sure that your message is understood.

Happy Friendship Day!

Happy Friendship Day!

Whether it's friendship, amitié, vänskap or amizade – the words may differ, but the feeling is universal. On today's International Friendship Day, we celebrate what inspires us every day as a translation agency: connecting people and cultures. For us, language is not just a tool, but a path to greater solidarity and togetherness.

A big thank you to everyone who works with us daily to create these connections!

Measurement Technology

Measurement Technology

Whether in industry, medicine or research: measurement technology is indispensable across many fields. It captures physical quantities such as mass, force, pressure or electric current and converts them into reliable data – a key requirement for safe processes and well-founded decisions.

To achieve this on a global scale, it takes more than just precise sensors: it also requires precise language. At #espaTrans, we translate technical texts in the field of measurement technology with in-depth expertise and linguistic precision. From technical manuals and operating instructions to safety documentation: we ensure your content is understood – worldwide.

Bonne fête nationale à toutes et à tous !

En ce 14 juillet, la France célèbre non seulement sa fête nationale, mais aussi des valeurs universelles telles que la liberté, l’égalité et la fraternité.

En tant qu’agence de traduction, nous en sommes convaincus : la langue est l’un des vecteurs les plus puissants de ces idéaux. Qu’il s’agisse de documents techniques, de textes juridiques ou de contenus marketing – chaque traduction précise contribue à faire tomber les barrières linguistiques et à rapprocher les peuples du monde entier.

Vive la France, vive la traduction !

Machinery Museum

Machinery Museum

Machines not only shape our everyday lives – they also have a rich and compelling history.

During our recent visit to the Kiel-Wik Machinery Museum, we took a fascinating journey into the world of historical technologies. Surrounded by old combustion engines, enormous steam-powered machines and rattling tractors, it felt as if bygone eras were alive again.

Beyond the impressive engineering and precise mechanics, we were also struck by the parallels to our daily work in technical translation – a discipline where every word must fit with the same precision as gears in a well-oiled machine.

Many thanks to the museum team for this impressive journey through time!

Kiel Week

Kiel Week

Hoist the sails – it’s time for Kiel Week!

When countless sailing boats take over the fjord, music echoes from every direction and the weather swings between sun hats and umbrellas, then you know: It’s Kiel Week again!

The world’s largest sailing event is much more than just a celebration of maritime tradition. Kiel Week stands for international encounters, cultural exchange and vibrant diversity. People from all over the world come together to discover, marvel and celebrate.

As a Kiel-based translation agency, we embrace this cosmopolitan spirit – and make sure that language is never a barrier. Neither on land nor at sea.

Summer solstice

Summer solstice

21 June marks the summer solstice.

At this moment, the sun reaches its highest point in the sky, giving us the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere.

An impressive natural phenomenon that reminds us: Light provides clarity and insight.

Just like a precise translation.
