Why is it useful to translate from and into Slovak?
- It is a language spoken by around 7 million people.
- It is an official language in Slovakia and Vojvodina (an autonomous district in northern Serbia) and one of the official languages of the European Union.
- Trade between Poland and Slovakia has increased almost twenty-fold since 1993. Business contacts often require certified (sworn) translations from and into Slovak, e.g. certified translations of financial documents, agreements, contracts, expert reports and other.
- The Interreg V-A Poland-Slovakia cross-border cooperation programme runs from 2014 to 2020. Last year, a programme for Polish-Slovak cooperation in the fields of theatre, music, film and literature and in the field of cultural heritage protection was also approved. The various projects implemented under such programmes involve interpretation and translation from and into Slovak.
