Parlez-vous français ? We do! With over 320 million speakers worldwide, French is one of the few languages that’s used across five continents. Naturally, there is growing demand for content in French and by French-speaking brands. To make the best impression, you’ll need professional French translation services.
The beauty of the French language
French often springs to people’s minds when listing the most beautiful languages. Many are drawn to its smooth, melodious sound and rich vocabulary. Communicating in French is also beneficial in the business world. It offers companies a broad global reach in several markets, including Canada, Switzerland, and several African and Caribbean countries.
Translating French to English (and vice versa)
Despite both languages having things in common, French-English translation is not as easy as it may seem. Complex grammar, different levels of formality, and faux amis – words that look or sound similar but have very different meanings – are just some of the challenges.
Attached’s French translation services can capture the exact meaning of your French content in English and over 40 other languages, including Arabic, Dutch, German, Italian and Spanish. Our language translators can also work in the opposite language direction.
For any language service into French, it’s essential to keep the dialects and cultures of French-speaking countries in mind. Our native translators are well-versed in the differences between language variations and know exactly how to communicate with each intended audience. French translators from the country you’re targeting are selected, and they make sure your documents are translated with the correct tone of voice.
Did you know that…
European French and Québécois French are two completely distinct varieties of the same language. While both are rooted in early modern Classical French, most linguists agree that the difference between them is larger than British and American English.

Work smarter with technology
As a language intelligence provider, we provide technology-backed solutions to meet your objectives in the most effective way. If you regularly update or produce new documents and all sorts of formats that needs translating, technology will slash delivery times, ensure the utmost quality and maintain your preferred style and appropriate vocabulary. This is especially important when words vary between countries, such as ‘(téléphone) portable’ (France), ‘GSM’ (Belgium), ‘cellulaire’ (Canada) or ‘natel’ (Switzerland) for ‘mobile phone’. We use a translation memory, dedicated glossary and Client Portal to keep your data secure in one place.
Beyond translations: Unlocking global potential
Don’t let language barriers get in the way of your success. French translation services have the power to build trust, brand loyalty and stronger connections with international customers and partners. But to get results, your phrasing, images and cultural references need to be local. Can you address your readers by ‘tu’, or should you use the formal pronoun ‘vous’? Would they expect to see ‘stop’ or ‘arrêt’ on a stop sign? Do they have ‘dîner’ or ‘déjeuner’ for their midday meal?
Our team recommends the best approach and decides which texts (or visuals) require localization, which is incorporating cultural elements and local language for maximum impact. Attention to detail from the start ensures every project pays off.
