Russian is spoken by an estimated 250 to 260 million people worldwide, making it the largest native language in Europe by number of speakers. As one of the six official languages of the United Nations, it also plays a vital role in communication across Eastern Europe and Central Asia.
Russian holds a strong position online, consistently ranking among the top languages used for digital content. This makes high-quality Russian translation crucial for organizations engaged in global business, international law, academic research, and multilingual communication.
At Littera24, we offer professional Russian translation services that ensure your documents, websites, and legal texts are translated with clarity and cultural accuracy. We handle both Russian-to-English and English-to-Russian translations, adapting content to suit regional variations and audience expectations.
Why Russian Requires Expert Translators
Russian presents specific linguistic challenges that make accurate translation complex:
- It uses the Cyrillic alphabet, distinct from the Latin script.
- Its grammar is highly inflected, with six grammatical cases, aspect-based verbs, and flexible word order.
- It features formal and informal speech registers that affect pronoun choice, verb forms, and tone.
Due to these characteristics, literal translations or reliance on machine tools often produce awkward or incorrect results. In fields such as legal, technical, or marketing communication, even minor errors can lead to serious consequences. That’s why Littera24 works exclusively with native Russian linguists who possess in-depth knowledge of both the language and subject matter.
