We can therefore advise our clients accordingly.<\/p>\n<h2>Text Editing: an Added Value!<\/h2>\n<p>A business\u2019s corporate image may be tarnished by poorly written copy. Concerned for its clients\u2019 reputation, Eurofins offers linguistic review as a complement to the regulatory analysis service. We verify spelling and grammar, and when appropriate, we correct syntax and style to improve the product and corporate images conveyed to the consumer or wholesale purchaser.<\/p>\n<h2>Translation of Food Labels<\/h2>\n<p>Eurofins\u2019s team masters French and English with eloquence. In response to our clients&#8217; needs, we translate labelling material from English to French or from French to English, and take great pride in the linguistic quality. Our writing style reflects our attention to detail, and the quality of our work in general. Well aware of the negative impact linguistic errors may have on the consumers\u2019 and the wholesale buyers\u2019 perception of a product and the manufacturing company, we treat our clients\u2019 projects as our own, and pay great attention to spelling, grammar, syntax and style. <strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We distinguish ourselves from other food labelling consultants who outsource the translation. Unless a translator is very familiar with the regulatory requirements of food labelling, chances are he may:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>unknowingly translate an originally non-compliant text;<\/li>\n<li>inadvertently render non-compliant a text which was initially compliant.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Eurofins\u2019s linguistic\u00a0expertise, along with our extensive regulatory and nutrition knowledge, makes us unique and valuable to our clientele.<\/p>\n<h2>Translation Bloopers<\/h2>\n<p>Beyond spelling mistakes, grammatical errors, and poor syntax, using the wrong wording can project a negative image. Facing poorly labelled products, consumers may perceive the goods to be of lower quality, and project this impression to the manufacturing company, and the retail store in general.<\/p>\n<p>The translation bloopers presented below\u00a0reflect real translation errors found on food labels. Some of them are actually quite common. They are funny in a way, but wholesale buyers do not want to be associate with these translation horrors.
