Tips for Kurdish language → English projects

  • Kurdish language is written right to left: layouts, numbers, punctuation and mixed-direction text must be tested by a native speaker.
  • Decide on US or UK English spelling and punctuation conventions up front.
  • For official documents (birth certificates, diplomas) into English, US agencies usually accept a translator's signed certification; check the receiving institution.
  • Send reference material and a glossary of brand or series terms; it saves revision rounds and money.
