Trusted by Global Brands from Every Industry
Horn of Africa translation built for two writing systems
Amharic and Tigrinya use the Ethiopic (Geʽez) script, while Somali and Oromo use the Latin alphabet. A regional rollout must support both writing systems across the same files, platforms, and deadline.
Bayantech plans translation and production together to prevent font failures, broken layouts, encoding errors, and inconsistent terminology before release.
- Native linguists for each language and audience
- Shared terminology across the complete language set
- Font and character coverage for both writing systems
- Layout, line-break, and truncation checks
- Encoding and final-format QA before delivery
The result is one coordinated delivery set that is accurate, consistent, and ready to publish.
Choose the right Horn of Africa language route
Use this hub when:
- Two or more of Amharic, Tigrinya, Somali and Oromo are in scope
- One deliverable set has to span both writing systems
- Terminology must stay aligned across languages
- The release has a shared date and a shared source version
Use a single-language page when:
- Only one of the four languages is required
- You need detail specific to that language
- The request is a standalone item rather than a coordinated set

How we deliver Horn of Africa translation projects
Define languages, audiences, and formats
We confirm the language required for each item, its target audience, and its final delivery format.
Validate fonts and file compatibility
We test character coverage, font fallback, encoding, and technical requirements before translation begins.
Build shared terminology
We approve key terms once and record the correct equivalent for every language.
Translate, edit, and review
Native linguists complete separate translation, editing, and review stages for each language.
Engineer the final formats
We place translated content into websites, apps, documents, subtitles, or print layouts.
Run linguistic and technical QA
We verify meaning, terminology, rendering, wrapping, truncation, and encoding before delivery.
Planning typography before translation prevents expensive layout and rendering corrections at the end of the project.

Frequently Asked Questions
They cover the translation, localization, and production of content for regional languages and audiences. This hub coordinates Amharic, Tigrinya, Somali, and Oromo through one terminology, workflow, and quality plan.
Yes. We manage all four languages under one schedule and shared terminology base while assigning native linguists and reviewers to each language.
Accurate translation can still fail during publishing. Amharic and Tigrinya require Ethiopic font coverage, while Somali and Oromo use the Latin alphabet. We test fonts, encoding, line breaks, and layout in the final format.
We plan for text expansion and check wrapping, truncation, alignment, and readability. When needed, our linguists and DTP or localization engineers adjust the content and layout together.
Yes. Use the relevant Amharic, Tigrinya, Somali, or Oromo service page for a standalone request. Use this hub when several languages share content, terminology, formats, or deadlines.
Cost and timing depend on the language set, word count, subject matter, file format, review stages, production work, and deadline. Send us the source files for an accurate quote and schedule.
