At
Polyglot
Institute
we have
a highly
professional
team
that can
translate
a wide
variety
of
documents
from
English
into
Arabic
or
vice-versa
with a
great
degree
of
accuracy.
Our
translations
are
accepted
as true
and
valid by
government
departments
here in
Oman and
by most
places
where
you
would
need to
send
legal
documents,
certificates
etc
anywhere
in the
world.
Work
that is
commonly
translated
takes
the form
of
certificates,
technical
documents,
legal
documents,
scientific
and
medical
reports
and
academic
surveys.
If you
have a
highly
technical
document,
we can
carry
out the
translation
work for
you with
a little
technical
help on
your
part. We
also
offer
services
to those
who want
academic
papers
translated
for
Masters
Degrees
and the
like.
With
prior
notice
certain
members
of our
team can
offer
their
services
as
simultaneous
translators
for
business
meetings,
lectures
and
other
situations
where
the
spoken
word may
need to
be
understood.
Although
we offer
mainly
Arabic –
English
or
English
– Arabic
translation,
we can
normally
offer
translation
in other
languages
as well.
These
services
are all
offered
at
competitive
prices.

translation
work,

Polyglot
offers the
service of
Interpreting
for both
Arabic to
English or
English to
Arabic.
The term
interpreter
refers to
the
practitioner
who
translates
orally for
parties
conversing
in different
languages.
Interpreters
should
convey not
only
elements of
meaning, but
also the
intention
and feelings
of the
original
speaker. In
fact, the
end result
is an
intermediate
stage of
communication
which aims
to allow
listeners of
the target
language to
experience
the message
in a way
that is as
close as
possible to
the
experience
of those who
understand
the
original.

secondment
services

and

Studies,
etc., If
you have
a short
