This presentation shows the difference between transcription and translation and how to get cheap and affordable transcription services in a timely manner on Fiverr.

1. So many people confuse transcription and translation. The two words are very distinct. We shall
be defining the two words and also listing where you can get the best transcription and
translation services online.
What is translation?
Translation have two broad meanings:
First, it can be defined as the process of translating words or text from one language to another.
What is implies is that translation is the art of translating a document from English to German or
vice versa. It is possible you have a document in one language but you want it in another language
because you can’t understand the original language of the document. This where you need
translation.
Second, translation can also be defined as the conversion of something from one medium to
another. Translation in this context does not necessarily mean translating from one language to
another language; you can translate a document in the same language but from one form to
another. For example, you might want to translate a document from PDF to Microsoft word
format or excel. You can do this without altering the language.

2. What is transcription?
Now, we move over to transcription. A transcript is usually referred to as a printed or written
version of something. Transcription involves converting audio or video files into text format. It is
possible that you have a recording of your lecture notes or any other kind of document that you
need converted into text so that you can easily edit it. That’s where transcription services are
needed.

3. Where can you get this service?
Although there are many websites online where you can easily transcribe or translate your
documents, most of these websites rely on machine translation and machine transcripts,
which affects the accuracy of the transcripts. Also, you end up paying more than you
budgeted for without getting the desired result. For example, you can easily use Google
translate to translate text from one language to another. However, in most cases, the
translated document might not be grammatically correct. To have a good translation, you
need a native speaker of both languages to get the job done accurately. In the same vein,
transcription that is done by machine usually lacks the grammatical elements, which means
you spend more time editing the document after paying so much.
