French translation services by native French translators
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.

Questions & Answers
How much do you charge for French translation?
Prices for translation services vary based on the nature of the document, file format, specialism, deadline and other project requirements. As we work with technology to save you time and money, we’ll need an editable file to maintain the formatting in the translated materials. We can convert files (e.g., PDF to Word), but this will increase the turnaround time and cost.
My document hasn’t been finalized. Can I get an estimate quote?
When will I receive the translation?
When we receive your request, we’ll consider several factors. Turnaround times depend on the number of words to translate, the format, content, reference materials, etc. We’ll let you know how long it will take to translate your documents.
Will my information and documents be kept confidential?
Your materials and data are safe with us and will only be used to carry out the agreed services.
What are ISO 17100:2015 and ISO 18587 certifications?
The ISO 17100:2015 certification provides requirements for delivering a high-quality translation service. ISO 18587 covers full machine translation (MT) post-editing (correcting texts by an MT engine to the same quality as a professional translation). We adhere to the processes laid out by these international standards.
My colleague is bilingual and will translate the files. Could you proofread them?
While native editors and proofreaders are available, we recommend working with trained professionals from the outset. This eliminates delays and any extra work for your team.
Can I start a project during the weekend?
