Use Your Hindi

I love the net! The most unexpected things pop up when you're browsing. One of my comments to the motorcycle blog referred to the motorized tricycles used in Asia. That image was still clear in my mind, when what should pop up? India translation services!

IAFL Translation and Interpration Services render a translating, interpretation, dubbing / subtitle service, and they claim to respond to 95% of all emails within one hour!

They do translations to and from the Indian languages,as well as Arabic and Farsi. (And others in that sub-continent.) They also provide iterpretation services for seminars, conferences, trade shows, meetings, etc.

Not only that, but they do dubbing, sub-titles, etc., for television productions, documentaries and so on.

I find this relevant, because I live in a coutry where we have eleven "official" languages, apart from the languages spoken by huge communities such as Indian, Portuguese, Greek, Italian and so on. Hindi has a large following here, with television time slots dedicated to the Hindu culture and language.

Furthermore, we are doing more and more business with India and the other Asian countries.

So ... if you have business dealing with any of the Indian language groups, here's a site that enables you to communicate with them, and to promote your products and services, in their languages.

Now, use you new-found Hindi expertise and get us some motorized tricycles to hold up the Minibus taxis!
