Turkmen translation services

Turkmen translation is priced per word for text and per minute for audiovisual, depending on volume, subject matter and turnaround, with agreeing the names list included as part of the brief rather than billed as an extra step. Send your files and we will come back with a free, itemised quote, backed by our Price Match Promise.

Yes. Native Turkmen linguists handle every translation, and a second native linguist independently reviews each text, checking every proper name against the agreed list so that no place or organisation appears in two spellings.

Yes — Turkmen translation, subtitling and voice over all come from one team, working to a single glossary and names list, so a name looks the same in the subtitles as in the script the voice actor reads.

Because Turkmen spells by its own alphabet. Official texts write New York as Nýu-Ýork and Germany as Germaniýa: the letter y is a vowel in Turkmen, so the consonant English writes as y becomes ý. Names are adapted so that a Turkmen reader says them correctly.

Not unless you want us to. Place names and international organisations normally follow Turkmen usage, while brand and product names stay as your guidelines require. We list every name at the brief and agree its form with you before translation starts.

Yes — audiovisual is our specialisation. We deliver spotted SRT/VTT and timed two-column voice-over scripts, plus translated text when you need it.

Yes. Cyrillic was the Turkmen script until the move to Latin in the 1990s, so older material often uses it. We translate or update from it and deliver in the current Latin alphabet, with names in current Turkmen spelling.

Standard Turkmen, the state language of Turkmenistan, written in the Latin alphabet — the form Turkmenistan's official sites use. It is our default for every project.

Most short documents are delivered within 24 to 48 hours. Word count, subject complexity and turnaround all move the date, and your project manager will confirm the timeline at the start.

Less than people expect: the document, script or subtitle file, its word count, what the text is actually for, and the date you need it by. A draft is fine — we would rather quote on what exists than wait for a final version that eats your deadline. A named project manager comes back with an itemised quote, normally within four working hours.

More than half of enquiries get a reply within thirty minutes during office hours (Monday to Friday, 9am to 6pm UK time), and the itemised quote normally follows within four working hours. After that you have one dedicated project manager who owns the job from brief to final file — not a ticket queue, and not a different name on every email. If it is easier, call +44 207 095 5730 and ask for them by name.

Yes, and it is one of the commonest reasons people get in touch. Tell us it is for a pitch and you get a figure you can put in front of your own client, itemised so it stands up to being picked apart, with no obligation and no follow-up sales calls if the pitch goes elsewhere. If it lands, the quote still holds and we already know the project.
