See below, what kind of changes to the text might be expected for translations from German to Armenian or vice versa.

Translation differences

Translation from German to Armenian or vice versa entails certain changes in the resulting text. These changes are caused by the inherent differences between the languages. The following things in your order might be affected:

  • The layout of the resulting text
  • Time it takes to translate
  • Translation complexity

Among other factors, these parameters can influence the final price as well. The layout factor is especially important to those, who are interested in our DTP (Desktop Publishing) services.

Text length and document layout

The main factors influencing the length and layout of the translated document are:

  • Writing system of the target language
  • Writing direction
  • Word length
  • Relative lengths of the texts

Writing system

German uses Latin alphabet, whereas Armenian employs Armenian alphabet. It may make the translated text shorter or longer than the original, and makes selecting the correct font for the target language essential. Given the same font size, Latin and Armenian symbols are usually equal in size.

Writing direction

Both languages are read left-to-right, meaning that there should be no significant changes to the layout in terms of the order of text elements.

Word length

Both languages have a similar average word length — 7 for German, and 8 for Armenian. Thus, the word length should not affect the layout.

Text length

On average, documents translated to German are 1% shorter than source texts in Armenian. On the other hand, Armenian texts are 1% longer than their German counterparts. It means that some formatting differences are to be expected in the translated texts, although they should not present a serious formatting issue. Please note, that the actual visual length is also influenced by the font used.

Word order

Depending on your needs, the word order might be rather important for the translation. Things like slogans and brand names may convey an entirely different meaning, if their word order is changed.

Neither German, nor Armenian have a standard word order. The meaning of sentences is largely independent from it, and the sequence can be safely conveyed in the same fashion as it is in the source text.

Translation complexity

Translation complexity is partially dependent on how closely the languages are related. The further apart the languages are, the more time and effort it takes to express an idea from one language in another one. As a consequence, it affects the price and time it takes to translate a document between German and Armenian.

Both German and Armenian belong to the Indo-European language family. The German language, however, represents the Germanic branch of the family, while Armenian is a member of the Armenian branch. It is not as drastic of a difference as between members of distinct families, but the discrepancy still provides some challenge to the translator.
