The Russian translation agency utilizes the 1800 characters as standard page for calculating the cost of translation. Standard page is used to determine the amount of text that needs to be translated, total cost of the translation, and amount of time required to perform the translation. You can see an example of the standard page in the .doc format.
This approach is highly beneficial for our clients and allows saving up to 5% of translation cost, which is also a discount in its own way.
Generally, a standard page can house about 235 words in Russian. As an example, we can provide data on how the volume of the standard page grows when translated to different languages.
Volume in Russian | Language | Translation | Changes, % | ||
signs | words | signs | words | ||
1840,2 | 220 | English | 1826 | 276,6 | 1,5% |
1804,5 | 261,5 | Spanish | 1926 | 385,5 | 7,0% |
1805 | 222,5 | German | 1872 | 225,5 | 4,0% |
1826 | 254 | French | 2171 | 351 | 20,6% |
Text volume in Russian Target language of translation from Russian Volume of the target text Change in the text volume during translation. One standard page in Chinese (created by translating 1800 characters of Russian text) contains up to 220 hieroglyphs for fiction texts and up to 450 for financial or legal documents.
The ratio is derived by calculating the mean value from three texts typical for each language: technical translation, legal translation and medical translation. The amount of words in standard 1800 character page in different languages:
Language | Amount of words |
English | 273 |
Spanish | 320 |
German | 217 |
French | 291 |
