Translating Your Survey to Get The Right Response

If you know your audience it definitely helps you to

create and manage multilingual surveys and this helps in

expanding the market beyond the geographical boundaries

of the domestic base.

Translating your survey to get the right response is a complex process and

creation of culturally appropriate content is a basic necessity to achieve an

authentic survey response or result.

Translating your survey to get the correct response is important to spread the

global reach of your business. Usually, multiple languages are added to a

single survey for the benefit of the global market.

One very important advantage of translating the

survey in multiple languages is that each

respondent is able to view and respond to the

survey in a language they are familiar with.

More importantly,

there is a single survey that contains all the

translations and the results of each survey are

stored in the same dataset.

This simplifies the process and makes it easier to study the surveys later on.

The data of the survey that have been collected are

Then analysed.

The language that the respondent wants to see can be specified. The

translation of the survey is carried out across the various fields and with

the help of relevant tools the fields that require translation are exported

into a spreadsheet and the files can then subsequently retrieved.

When creating a survey, a default language is decided upon and the

survey questions are based on the default language.

Best practice states that the language set for

the survey is the original language in which the

survey was written.

The base language can be changed as per convenience.

The survey can be designed in such a way that each question can be

automatically translated to speed up the translation process.

Translating Your Survey to Get the Right Response also involves

reviewing by native translators to ensure accuracy of survey.

Also, you need to ensure that the participant can view the

translation in the desired language.

Also, to make the process more user

friendly the browser setting can be

adjusted in such a way that it opens the

survey automatically in a language that

the respondent uses in browsing the

websites. So most users are directed

towards the correct language without

any additional effort.

Language codes are used to enable the participants to choose easily.
