Koningsdag
Fijne Koningsdag!
Today, the Netherlands will turn orange once again: it’s Koningsdag! On this day, our Dutch neighbours celebrate their king’s birthday – and transform the entire country into one big, cheerful street festival.
At espaTrans, we’re joining the celebrations – at least in spirit – and are happy to handle all translations into Dutch. Professional, reliable and with royal precision!
Fun with CAT tools
A quick quiz question:
What is a so-called CAT tool used for?
a) To keep a cat occupied
b) To create a translation
We’re talking about a translator’s best friend: Computer-Aided Translation (even though we at #espaTrans wouldn’t say no to Cat-Aided Translation)
Defence in Transition
Increasing conflicts and global crises are transforming the defence sector in Europe like never before. Digital technologies, cyber defence, drones and networked systems are increasingly defining the landscape – and are continuing to evolve at a rapid pace. In this context, one factor is becoming ever more crucial: international cooperation.
To ensure that language is not a barrier, we at espaTrans support you with precise specialist translations in the field of defence.
Finnish Language Day
Hyvää suomen kielen päivää!
Today we are celebrating the Day of the Finnish Language – one of the most fascinating languages in Europe. Finnish has no articles, no grammatical genders and no distinct future tense, but it does have as many as 15 cases.
At espaTrans, we love linguistic peculiarities like these – and translate all kinds of texts into Finnish with passion and precision.
World Backup Day
Today is World Backup Day!
The perfect opportunity to remind ourselves just how important regular data backups are. Whether it’s hardware failure, a cyber-attack or a careless click, data loss can happen more quickly than one might think. That’s why regular backups aren’t just a nice-to-have – they’re essential.
And when it comes to linguistic backups: at espaTrans, we translate everything related to data protection, IT security and tech, ensuring your messages reach audiences worldwide with complete precision – without anything getting lost.
Space technology
Space may seem quiet – and yet there’s more activity out there than ever before.
New missions, growing satellite constellations and visionary projects are driving space exploration into a new era. Research teams, companies and start-ups are working on ideas that will shape the future far beyond Earth.
At espatrans, we follow these developments with great interest – and support them with professional and expert translations. So that no message gets lost in space.
International Francophonie Day
Bonne Journée de la Francophonie !
Today is International Francophonie Day – the perfect moment to admit that everything sounds a little more elegant when it’s said in French.
But French is not just a language with a special sound. It is also an important international language of business and trade, spoken by hundreds of millions of people and connecting markets across several continents – from Montreal to Marseille, from Dakar to Dijon.
To ensure your messages reach the French-speaking world, we at espaTrans provide the translations you need.
Slavic languages
Vowels? Overrated.
Whether it’s szczęście, čtvrtek or štvrť – words full of consonants are far from unusual in Slavic languages. For non-native speakers, these consonant clusters may seem surprising, but they’re just one of the many fascinating aspects of this language family.
Different writing systems, complex grammar structures and rich cultural backgrounds also make Slavic languages such as Polish, Czech, Russian, Bulgarian and many others so distinctive – and challenging at the same time.
At espaTrans, we love exactly these challenges and offer precise translations into a wide range of Slavic languages.
Metalworking
From raw material to high-precision component
Metalworking is one of those industries where millimetres don’t just matter – they make all the difference. Whether it’s welding, milling, punching or laser cutting, every step demands the highest precision to ensure that the final components function reliably and meet international quality standards.
That same level of precision is essential when it comes to operating instructions, technical documentation and certifications. That’s why at espaTrans we take care of all translations in the field of metalworking.
Chinese New Year
New lunar year, new opportunities!
The Chinese New Year 2026 is in full swing, marking the start of a new year full of opportunities according to the traditional lunar calendar. In Chinese culture, this celebration symbolises new beginnings, unity and prosperity. Many people around the world celebrate it with family, festive meals, splendid decorations and wishes for happiness and success.
We at espaTrans are also celebrating – and providing professional translations into Chinese!
