Language is a tool used to communicate between people.  When people do not share a common language, it makes it difficult for them not only to communicate, but also to navigate life. People lose the ability to understand each other’s words. People lose the opportunity to truly express themselves.

Without a translating and interpreting service that understands the important role language plays in human expression, the real meaning behind someone’s words will be lost.
At Metaphrasis, we provide professional translation services and interpreter services in Chicago, IL and around the country to ensure that people are understood completely. It is not enough to simply translate the words of a document or conversation; words and phrases have meaning and context behind them that a literal translation may miss.  Our interpreters and translators will understand and account for contexts and meanings for complete accuracy.

Through our language translation services, we can translate important documents including legal and medical documents, websites, video and audio transcripts, Braille, sign language, and more.  We can also help businesses and institutions by providing interpreters to be at their side in everyday operations, to the biggest conferences and events.

We sincerely hope that your family, employees, and everyone around you are doing well.

While we navigate these uncertain times, Metaphrasis is here to support you and your community.  Our team of linguists are available to translate on-going information on COVID-19 for your customers, employees, and community at large.  We also offer Telephonic and Video Remote translating and interpreting services which are available to use 24/7.  Effective communication will be key as we work towards a solution for the COVID-19 pandemic.  As we face these challenges, you can count on Metaphrasis to keep your community connected.

Interpretation Services

Interpretation
