Linguistic considerations

Getting Nepali right.

Small choices — script, register and filing context — change whether a Nepali document is accepted or an interpretation session lands correctly. Here is what we watch for.

Dialect & variety

Bhutanese-Nepali (Lhotshampa) speakers and Nepal-origin speakers use the same written language but diverge in spoken register. We confirm at booking.

Recipient alignment

Every Nepali project is matched to its destination — a certified translation formatted for the exact recipient, or an interpreter briefed on the venue's protocol — so it clears review the first time.
