ABOUT THIS DOCUMENT
Keeping the recommender's authority and voice credible in English
A recommendation letter carries the judgment of a specific person - often a professor, manager, physician, or professional supervisor. Its translation should preserve both the substance of that endorsement and the relationship that gives the recommender authority to make it.
Different cultures use praise, titles, hierarchy, and formal language differently. An overly literal rendering may sound weak in U.S. English, while an over-adapted version can unintentionally exaggerate the recommender's assessment.
The translation should keep factual details, evaluative language, examples, dates, titles, and contact information faithful while making the English natural and coherent. Academic ranks and organizational titles may need careful rendering so the reader understands the recommender's position without assigning an inaccurate U.S. equivalent.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who decides whether a translation of Letter of Recommendation must be certified?
A recommendation letter is commonly translated without certification for university, scholarship, employment, or research applications. Certification may be appropriate when the letter is being submitted as formal evidence in a licensing, immigration, or legal process and the recipient asks for it.
Should strong praise in a recommendation letter be toned down or intensified?
Neither. The English should preserve the recommender's level of endorsement. Cultural differences in formality can be handled so the letter sounds natural, but the translator should not weaken or exaggerate the underlying assessment.
How are academic ranks or managerial titles handled in a recommendation letter?
They should be rendered so the reader understands the recommender's position without assigning an inaccurate U.S. rank. When no exact equivalent exists, preserving the original title alongside a clear English description can be safer.
