Difference Between Translation And Transcreation



the difference between translation and transcreation

Translation starts with a source text, transcreation starts with a creative brief. The goal of transcreation is not to simply say the same thing in another language – the goal is to get the same reaction from different audiences.

At CQ fluency, we work with teams of linguists and in-country copywriters who have been specially selected for transcreation projects. As part of our cultural adaptation process, we assess the strength of your messaging for your target markets and make recommendations on how to enhance cultural relevance. This ensures your messages are not simply heard, but understood, by engaging hearts and minds.
