Arabic has several variants, both literary and standardised, depending on the region. Dialects are also a variant, both written and spoken. It often happens that we are asked for an Italian-Egyptian translator, as the latter is the official language of Egypt and represents one of the varieties of this fascinating Middle Eastern idiom. On the other hand, an Egyptian-Italian translator will have the task of conveying the text from the first to the second language, paying close attention to all terms, finding the correct correspondent, inherent to the type of translation (commercial, financial, editorial, etc.).

Arabic translations: some curiosities about the language

Translating into Arabic is not easy if you are not fully familiar with the peculiarities of this idiom. Arabic has many variants in the spoken language and today has about 270 million people who use it to communicate. Arabs are mainly located in 22 countries and, starting in the 7th century, the Arabic language became the revelatory language of the culture of the Islamic world with the Arabic Classical variant. This language has been divided into three main branches namely, Classical Arabic, formal Arabic and spoken Arabic, the latter of which may differ from region to region. It is therefore necessary to rely on professionals who have knowledge in reading and writing Arabic texts or linguistic familiarity as an Arabic-Italian interpreter.

It is good to remember that Arabic is a language that is written and read from right to left, and this is not the only difficulty one can encounter when translating Italian-Arabic-Italian texts. Numbers and dates in a written document are read in the Western way, i.e. from left to right.
