The Swedish language, belonging to the Scandinavian branch of Germanic languages, holds an important place in business and cultural communications in Northern Europe. Its rich history and unique grammar and vocabulary make translation to and from Swedish a highly challenging task. Working with this language requires a professional approach and a responsible attitude, which the team at Etalon Translation Bureau is always ready to provide. Our experienced staff and comprehensive approach ensure that even for non-standard requests, you can expect a positive outcome.
Challenges in Working with Swedish
When translating from Ukrainian to Swedish, it’s essential to consider the following aspects:
- Complex grammar. The system of articles, verb forms, and tense agreements requires especially careful attention.
- Idiomatic expressions. The use of fixed phrases and expressions requires knowledge of their exact meanings and context.
- Regional dialects. Swedish has notable differences in pronunciation and vocabulary across regions, which should be considered in translation.
- Sentence structure. Word order in Swedish sentences differs from Russian, making translation into Swedish a particularly challenging task.
- Polysemantic words. Many words have multiple meanings, complicating translation without a deep understanding of the context.
- Lexical borrowings. Swedish contains borrowings from other languages, which can significantly alter the overall meaning of the text.
- Specialized terminology. Translating technical or legal documents requires precise knowledge of specialized terms.

Steps in the Document Translation Process
The workflow at Etalon Bureau includes several sequentially implemented stages:
- Assessment and analysis. Initial document review to determine complexity, volume, and timeline.
- Assigning a translator. Selecting a specialist with the necessary knowledge and experience in the relevant field.
- Text translation. Primary translation from Swedish to Russian, taking into account all terminological and stylistic features.
- Editing. Review by an editor to eliminate possible errors and enhance style.
- Proofreading and formatting. Correcting semantic inaccuracies and adjusting the format to match the original and client requirements.
- Document delivery. The completed Swedish-Russian translation is sent to the client for approval or additional comments.
Factors Affecting Service Cost and Deadlines
Document volume directly impacts the cost—the larger the volume, the higher the estimate. Text complexity is equally important—translating a driver’s license or specialized documents with narrow terminology requires experienced translators, whose involvement increases labor costs. The language pair also matters—the language combination determines the choice of a particular specialist, with work on rare languages costing more.
Urgent Swedish translations often involve deploying significant resources, requiring additional expenses. Additional services, including proofreading and notarization, also increase the total cost and time needed to complete the project. Regardless of the specifics of the request, we always agree on all financial matters in advance, eliminating any potential misunderstandings or disputes with partners.
