Truly LOCAL - Like all living languages, Philippine languages constantly change. Linguists should always be located in the geographical target market--in short, they should live in it, breathe it!
Top EDUCATION – Educated as a government scholar at the University of the Philippines (Diliman campus) and at the Philippine Science High School, Jake Estrada is pursuing his Masters of Business Administration from Edinburgh Business School in Scotland through distance learning. "Education is a Continuous Process, Not an End Result."
EXPERIENCED – Touchbase, a network of linguists established in 1997, is now a part of QwertyWorks, a company founded in 2001 by Jake Estrada who has been translating from and into Tagalog since 1993.
PROFESSIONAL - Touchbase only hires translators who are native mother-tongue speakers and employs them as regular employees rather than as freelancers. Would you trust your texts to mere bilinguals doing translations as a second job, or to by-the-book instructors moonlighting as translators, or to unaccredited "linguists"--only to have them sent later on to Touchbase for editing or rework??
SPECIALIZED - Touchbase is also the only language provider anywhere to specialize in Philippine languages. We don’t offer non-language services and we also don’t dare translate into languages that we don’t speak everyday.
CAPACITY – Touchbase has its own offices, workstations, and capacity to handle tens of thousands of words per day. We also have millions of bytes of TMs and legacy translations with quality that is very much sought after.
RECOGNIZED - A member of the American Translators Association (ATA) and the Globalization and Localization Association (GALA).
Tired of seeing "loan words" in your Tagalog translations? Do not sacrifice the subtle cultural and social contexts that only Philippine-based translators can provide...your target audience and readers are your Ultimate Proofreaders--they can tell the BIG difference!
