Professional Kurdish Translation Services

Kurdish is a Western Iranian language with many differences from West Germanic English. One notable difference is the writing system. While English is written using the Latin alphabet, most Kurdish text is written in its own alphabet. This is a modified version of the Persian alphabet and has similarities with the Arabic script. A qualified Kurdish translator must have a thorough understanding of the new script and its characters. The sounds ح, خ, ق, ع, and غ are all entirely new to native English speakers, and the pronunciation is highly challenging. Moreover, the Kurdish alphabet is written from right to left, rather than left to right. As we translate English to Kurdish or Kurdish to English, this should be take into consideration to ensure formatting is not compromised. Depending on the specific region, there are times when different writing systems are used altogether! Kurdish may be written in Latin, Cyrillic, or Armenian scripts depending on location. This poses yet more challenges for every Kurdish translation services agency. Kurdish grammar is also highly inflected, there are multiple dialects to consider, and two different formalities to choose between, namely Kurdish Kurmanji and Kurdish Sorani translation.
