Sir/ Madam

Welcome to my page!

I am a Bangladesh based native Bengali professional translator, working in the field for 10 years.

I provide English to Bengali and Bengali to English translation, interpretation, editing, checking, proofreading, voice recording, localisation, subtitling and other related services.

I am an enlisted translator with CARE-Bangladesh, a renowned US-based NGO. I have worked as a regular translator of the United Nations Information Centre (UNIC), Dhaka for six years. I have also worked for two years as a subeditor of The Daily Star, the largest English daily of my country. I have a lot of experiences of working with many other national and international organisations and with some of the prestigious national English and Bengali dailies and weeklies of Bangladesh.

Overseas work

Besides, I work with leading translation agencies based mainly in the USA, UK and also other countries of the world and the references may be available upon request.

No project is too big, no job is too small Always on time, with utmost quality NINE QUALITY POINTS FOR VALUED CLIENTS


# Accurate, but not literal translation

# Translation, not explanation

# Correct spelling

# Correct formatting

# Terminology consistency

# Subject- and audience-specific translation

# Gender- and community-sensitive language

# Timely delivery

# Competitive price



Translation projects

I have translated hundreds of large and important documents from English to Bangla (Bengali) and also Bangla to English. For short list of my translation works, please see the project history above or kindly email me for a detailed list.

Small projects

In addition to large projects, I also translate trade/business licenses, marriage certificate, educational certificate, mark sheet, contract, brochure, flyer, medical prescription, survey questionnaire, personal letter, etc.

Post- and pre-translation service

Post- and pre-translation service is enormously important for an outsourcer or an individual client because the end-client might come up with corrections and additions in the source text after the translation is done. And in this case, if the translator does not cooperate, the outsourcer runs the risk of losing a valuable client. If you take my service, I will always be with you until you are totally satisfied with the work. Although I offer post translation service to all of my clients, I offer pre-translation service only to my regular clients helping them by reviewing the source text or the translated text in case of editing so that the clients can determine the cost.

Hello callers!

Email is my preferred mode of communication. However if you have an urgent project or have any work related issue that needs to be done immediately, please feel free to call me at +880-1716329244 any time. You can also send me text messages if you wish.

Current Bangladesh time



UNICODE FONTS

I use both Unicode and non-Unicode compliant Bengali fonts according to clients' demands.

Rate

The rate for translation service depends on the nature, complexity, amount and urgency of the work. So it is always negotiable. However, if you are looking for the 'cheapest' translator in my pair(s), I am afraid I am NOT the right person for your project.
