Translations into Portuguese

Transfer of a foreign text into the national language of the country, while maintaining the content and ensuring that the target text sounds natural, as if it had been written by a native speaker of the target country. In the Brazilian context, translation is the transfer of the content from the original foreign language into Brazilian Portuguese.

According to the ABNT [Brazilian Association of Technical Standards] 17100 standard on translation services, "translation is a set of processes in the source language for content in the target language, in written form.”
