Hola, ¿cómo estás? Hallo, wie geht es Ihnen? Prisma translates financial documents into: Spanish, German and Hungarian. It is time to learn some facts about these popular languages.

Spanish

Spanish is a truly global language. Did you know?:

  • In 2023, our most common documents to be translated into the language were: PRIIP KIDs, financial reports and shareholder letters.
  • The language has more than 500 million speakers and is an official language in 20 countries.
  • The first grammar book was written in 1492.
  • Have you enjoyed “sobremesa” lately? It is the joyful time spent after dinner to talk and relax.

German

I believe my pig whistles (meaning: This is unbelievable). Can you believe these facts?:

  • Did you know that our biggest financial report translated into German has more than 1100 pages?
  • German is an official language in 6 European countries.
  • Fernweh (literal “far-longing”) is the opposite of homesick. Other languages use it as well (maybe it is time to travel again?) Other German words used internationally are Autobahn, Leitmotiv, Wunderkind and Zeitgeist.
  • The most used letter in German is the “E”.

Hungarian

Hungarian is supposedly a difficult language to learn for English-speakers (category IV language according to the Foreign Service Institute). Alternatively, here are some some Hungarian language facts to learn instead:

  • It is the largest language by speakers in the Uralic family. 
  • The language has 14 vowels.
  • Regional language status in Austria, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia and Slovenia. 
  • There are 13 million Hungarian native speakers. 
  • PRIIP KIDs and many other financial documents: We can handle your translation needs for Hungarian and many other languages.
