Sample output
I didn't receive the text, so here's the result using a sample snippet from a design agency's home page.
Original (sample, Spanish)
Diseñamos marcas que se recuerdan. Desde 2015 ayudamos a empresas a dar el salto con identidades visuales que dan en el clavo. Pide tu propuesta antes del 15/03.
Translation (British English)
We design brands people remember. Since 2015, we've helped businesses take the leap with visual identities that hit the mark. Request your proposal by 15 March.
Glossary of decisions
| Original | Translation | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| dar el salto | take the leap | Natural equivalent with the same sense of positive risk |
| dan en el clavo | hit the mark | Idiomatic equivalent; hit the nail on the head would feel forced in a marketing line |
| 15/03 | 15 March | British date format, no ambiguity |
| Pide tu propuesta | Request your proposal | Professional register; Spanish informal tú has no direct English counterpart |
