English to Spanish Translation Services
As the official language in over 20 countries, Spanish is truly a global language with approximately 497 million speakers using it as a native language. Despite Spain being the country where Spanish originates, the language has been brought to the whole world due to voyages, immigration, and colonization in the past few hundred years. Spanish-speaking countries are made up of many economies, from leading economies like Spain and Mexico to smaller players in the Caribbean and Latin America. The Spanish-speaking markets combined present tremendous opportunities for business and revenue growth. To this end, bringing your brand’s message to life using the right Spanish variant is the key to perpetual success in the Spanish world.
Before introducing your products/services to any Spanish-speaking market, you must make sure all translation from English to Spanish remains professional, accurate, and culturally appropriate, serving your intended purposes with clarity and precision. To reap success in the Spanish-speaking world, you need precise translation of your marketing collateral, product or service descriptions, and other business documents to open the doors for Spanish-speaking customers in Europe, the Americas, and the world.
Even though English and Spanish are similar in alphabet, cognates, sentence structure, and grammar, translating documents from English to Spanish is not as easy-peasy as it seems. As the two languages vastly differ in pronunciation, verb conjugation, gender & agreement, tenses, vocabulary, grammar, sentence structure, vocabulary, and formality, using a native English to Spanish translator from Latin America or any other Spanish-speaking market you are targeting is more than necessary. That’s why you need a professional translation company to translate your documents from English to Spanish with localization in mind.

Language Facts About Spanish
Spanish is currently the world’s second most widely spoken native language with nearly 500 million speakers located largely in Spain and the Americas. Named Castellano in Spain and Español in other Spanish-speaking countries, Spanish is spoken as an official language in 21 countries and territories across all five continents. It is also one of the six official languages of the UN.
Breif History of the Spanish Language
Spanish has a long and captivating history. The language can be traced back to the 3rd century BC, when the Iberian Penisula was conquered by the Romans who brought the Vulgar Latin and settled there during the Roman Empire.
Derived and evolved from Latin, Spanish embraced influences from foreign languages like Catalan, French, Occitan, Italian, Portuguese, etc., and gradually became a unique language characterized by its distinctive sound and rhythm.
Since the 16th century, Spanish had developed into the dominant language in Spain and its colonies across the world due to the arrivals of Spanish conquistadors, especially in the Americas. And most of these colonies continued using Spanish as their de facto/de jure official language even after the colonial era.
At present, Spanish has grown into a language of global communication and serves as a bridge between different cultures, connecting people from around the world.
Countries Using Spanish As the Official Language
Today, Spanish is recognized as the official language in 20 countries and one territory, by de facto or by law. Countries in which Spanish holds official status include Spain, Mexico, Colombia, Argentina, Peru, Venezuela, Chile, Guatemala, Ecuador, Cuba, Bolivia, Honduras, Dominician Republic, Paraguay, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Uruguay, Panama, and Equatorial Guinea.
Puerto Rico, the territory located near the Caribbean Sea, also makes Spanish the de jure official language. Interestingly, despite its official status in Equatorial Guinea, a small African country, Spanish is not a native language in the region.
Apart from the above regions where Spanish is spoken as an official language nationally, there are sizeable Spanish-speaking populations in other countries such as Andorra, Belize, Gibraltar, and the US where education, information, and public services are provided in Spanish nationwide. Especially in the United States, Spanish is the country’s second most widely spoken language, making it a vital means of cross-cultural communication.
Is Latin American Spanish Intelligible to European Spanish?
Yes. In general, speakers of Latin American Spanish have no trouble understanding Spanish speakers from Spain since the former variety of Spanish has been evolved from the latter with the same root. However, a European Spanish speaker might find it difficult to understand a fast speaker of Latin American Spanish or their regional Latino slangs.
Likewise, a Latin American Spanish speakers may struggle to comprehend a Spanish from Europe who uses many archaic expressions with a thick accent.
Though the two varieties of Spanish are closely related to each other, there are some noticeable differences between them in pronunciation, vocabulary, and even grammar. Taking the word “casa”, which means house in English, as an example. While “casa” is pronounced “cah-thah” in European Spanish, it sounds more like “cah-sah” in Latin American Spanish. In Latin American, people refer to “cell phone” as “celular”, while people in Spain use “móvil” for the same thing.
The grammar used by Latin American Spanish speakers is also different from that of European Spanish speakers’. For instance, people from Spain are more likely to use the subjunctive mood than Latinos to express desire, possibility, uncertainty.
That’s why it’s critical to work with translators from that specific Spanish-speaking region to ensure linguistically accurate, culturally appropriate, and professional translation for any document from English to Spanish of all varieties. Wordspath works closely with such translators and guarantees to meet all your English Spanish translation needs.

A8: When you need to get a general idea of a foreign text/passage and accuracy doesn’t matter to you, translation APPs can be an ideal tool. Some of the best APPs for English Spanish translation include Google Translate, Microsoft Translator, and iTranslate. These apps come with amazing features such as text translation, voice translation, and dictionary lookup. However, the accuracy is questionable and could vary with different subject matters. It’s recommended to try different apps and choose the one that best suits your specific translation needs. But think twice before using such APPs to translate important/highly technical documents.
A9: While Google Translate can generate translation from English to Spanish instantly and provide a basic understanding, you need to bear in mind that the results may not always be accurate or contextually appropriate. Google Translate, or any machine translation tool in the matter, is ideal for translating simple phrases or getting a general idea. But when aiming for professional and accurate translations, it’s best to avoid using these machine-powered tools and work with experienced human translators who can understand the linguistic and cultural nuances between both languages and provide high-quality translations with a tailored personal touch.
