The Internet took on a recognizable form nearly 30 years ago, and since then we have all had access to information spread across the globe. But some countries may have found it difficult to understand our information due to translation issues online. Even now, there are still some major mistakes happening when advertising across businesses and languages – Google Translate being the primary cause.
Using Translations for Marketing in Spanish
While we could list all the possible faults that could go wrong in business, we should focus on the main languages that are wrongfully crossing paths: Spanish and English.
Consider the 50 million Hispanics living in the United States, consistent errors are occurring across marketing in Spanish that can’t be ignored. The Spanish language out-populates the English by about 400 million speakers and should be a high priority for businesses operating across borders.
The perfect, yet unfortunate, example of this error is the Chevy Nova case.
General Motors introduced their Chevy Nova into a Spanish speaking market, but the translation of ‘no va’ (Spanish) literally means ‘doesn’t go’ in English. A car that doesn’t go is the classic example of an inadequate Spanish translation that can happen when marketing a product.
