CERTIFIED TRANSLATION
You may need certified translation services for documents required by governmental or other entities for various purposes (applications for citizenship, powers of attorney, academic certificates gained in other countries, etc.)
In Portugal, certifying a translation consists of (a lawyer, notary or similar legal entity) certifying the translator's identity, who, in turn, attests to the accuracy of the translation.
In addition to certification, New Words is able to Apostille documents (a formality that certifies the authenticity of documents issued by a country party to the Hague Convention administered by the Hague Conference on Private International Law to be used in another country that is also party to the convention).
PROOFREADING
Have you ever heard the expression “four eyes see better than two”? Proofreading a translation, or even a monolingual text, is essential to ensuring the product is word-perfect.
A proofreader is responsible for ensuring a translation is consistent and checking the spelling, grammar, and punctuation. It is also while proofreading that the fluidity of any text is determined, which may lead to the text having to be adapted to suit its target audience
TRANSCRIPTION
Content transcription is a common requirement in legal practice as well as other areas, such as for audiovisual content.
Our transcribers produce a full transcription of any audio file, meeting any and all client requirements.
COPYWRITING
Writing a text may seem like a simple task to some, but it’s nothing short of Herculean for many. When writing a company description, texts for catalogues or brochures, copy for websites and other such purposes, the task gets only more complex: which terms best captivate your audience? What can you say to draw your reader in? How do you turn a reader into a client? Good copy doesn’t require magic, but it is best done by a professional with the right knowledge and a good dose of creativity. New Words supports its clients by writing compelling content that captivates its target audience and attracts new customers – content to boost any business!

The New Words team is made up of native translators with proven language skills in their respective target languages. New Words translators only translate into their mother tongue, guaranteeing the quality and fluency of every text produced.
A team is the sum of the parts, and New Words’ skills are an amalgamation of each of our translators’ specialisations. This means that New Words can always provide you with the right service to meet your needs.
