Professional Sinhala Translation Services

Sinhala is a uniquely written language in Sri Lanka that uses the Sinhala script (සිංහල අක්ෂර මාලාව). This is an adapted version of the ancient Brahmi script which includes symbols and characters from Sanskrit and Pali. There are two versions of this script, one with 33 letters (Pure Sinhala, ශුද්ධ සිංහල) and another with 61 letters (Mixed Sinhala, මිශ්‍ර සිංහල). The challenges posed when we translate English to Sinhala are countless. Both languages use distinct writing systems that any English to Sinhala translator will need to switch between. Like other Asian languages, Sinhala follows a Subject–Object–Verb word order, whereas English follows the Subject–Verb–Object order. All nouns are given a grammatical gender in Sinhala, which is another new concept for English speakers. Without an in-depth understanding of both languages, English to Sinhala translation services could include errors, lose their meanings, and fail to connect with your audience. This also applies to Sinhala to English translation which has a huge demand. Count on our professional Sinhala translation agency to ensure you get all nuances of the language correct.
