Budget-friendly Portuguese translations done by professionals
As a small, ethical company, we believe that quality translation doesn’t need to come at a big price. By staying intentionally small and working with a close team of reliable, experienced linguists, we’re able to offer affordable translation services without compromising on accuracy or integrity.
However, we don’t use Machine Translation to cut down our costs. We believe AI can be used for many things, but it shouldn’t be used to translate important texts. This can raise legal issues or even give a bad image of a business.
Fetish, marmalade and mosquito: all Portuguese words
English has borrowed more from Portuguese than most people realize. Did you know that words like fetish, marmalade, and mosquito all have Portuguese roots?
Fetish comes from the Portuguese feitiço, originally meaning a charm or magical object. The Portuguese also use “fetiche” with the same meaning as “fetish”.
Marmalade comes from marmelada in Portuguese; it seems that both the Portuguese and the British love spreading some jam!
Mosquito, literally means little fly in Portuguese and it’s the word also used in both languages to name that insect that nobody loves.
These linguistic crossovers are reminders of centuries of cultural exchange. From maritime exploration to culinary influence, the Portuguese have their mark on many languages. So next time you see a mosquito or spread marmalade on a slice of bread, don’t forget about this!
Always a second pair of eyes
LEaF doesn’t just offer you Portuguese translations; it also guarantees that the text is spotless. How? By making sure that our translations are always proofread by a Portuguese language specialist.
We believe in providing the best service that we possibly can and unlike larger agencies, we choose to stay intentionally small. We collaborate exclusively with a select group of trusted linguists whose expertise we know inside and out. This allows us to maintain close communication with our clients, offering transparency and responsiveness from start to finish.
