One of the two remaining Baltic languages in existence (along with Lithuanian), Latvian is spoken as a first language by 56% of the country’s population. However, this number is rising, and as more people embrace it, the language has begun to evolve from its roots as one of the oldest European languages.
This evolution has seen Latvian split into three distinct dialects which have their roots in different areas of the country. Middle Latvian is most commonly used in the centre and south west, Upper Latvian is spoken in the east of the country, while Livonian is most often spoken in the west of Latvia. Even within these dialects, there are other set nuances, and although speakers of each dialect can generally comprehend each other without issue, hiring a Latvian translator who can parse the differences and cater to a specific dialect is crucial.
Latvian is not the same language as Russian. Grammar, phonology and vocabulary differ significantly between the two languages. For instance, modern Russian uses three tenses, while modern Latvian uses six tenses. It is sometimes easy for Russians to pick up Latvian words through similarities in spelling, but these are usually words borrowed from a third language.
The Latvian language has three main dialects. The Livonian dialect is widespread in western Latvia, while the Middle dialect is spoken mostly in the east of the country. Upper Latvian is most common in central and southwestern Latvia. London Translations are on hand to provide translations in any of these dialects.

Thank you for your excellent work in translating our marketing presentations from English to Thai, German, Dutch and Norwegian.

My client needed this document translated as soon as possible and your company delivered it far sooner than I or he expected. In a world where great customer service has become a thing of the past, it’s refreshing to see a company who still strives to be great.
