London, England and The United Kingdom Translation and Interpretation Services:
London is the capital of the United Kingdom and the constituent country of England. London is also the largest city in the European Union and is the world’s ninth largest city. London may be considered the financial capital of Europe, very much like Ney York is to the United States. With so many people and languages, a translation company is an important service.
In addition to London being one of the world’s most important business, financial, and cultural centres; its influence in politics, education, entertainment, media, fashion, language and the arts contributes to its status as a major global city.
Central London is the headquarters of more than half of the United Kingdom’s top 100 listed companies (the FTSE 100) and more than 100 of Europe's 500 largest companies. These companies trade globally and have to communicate in other languages, hence translation services in London are important.
London contains four UNESCO World Heritage Sites: the Tower of London; the historic settlement of Greenwich; the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew; and the site comprising the Palace of Westminster, Westminster Abbey and St. Margaret's Church in London. Buckingham Palace, the official London residence of the Queen and the Royal family are located in London. Many people from all over the world visit these locations and language services and translation services are essential to entertaining tourists.
London has a lot of green and open space. In fact the city has 1,700 parks in an area of around 70 square miles. It's possible to walk from the Houses of Parliament to Olympia, a distance of 3 miles, through parkland alone. Kensington Gardens, Hyde Park, Green Park and St. James' park form an unbroken line of greenery making this possible, only in London. You will be sure to hear many different languages being spoken when you stroll through this park.
Hyde Park in London is the most prominent and famous London Park. It was once part of a wild and ancient forest, inhabited by wolves, wild bulls and boar. It was fenced off as a royal deer park in Tudor times, and later open to the London public. Hyde Park is one of London's finest historic landscapes covering 142 hectares (350 acres). There is something for everyone in Hyde Park in London England. With over 4,000 trees, a lake, a meadow, horse rides and more it is easy to forget you're in the middle of London. However as you look around and see the many different peoples and listen to all the many different languages you’ll surely remember that you are in London England.
Green Park in London has a grand entrance facing Queen Victoria's memorial outside Buckingham Palace. This entrance is called Canada Gate. There is a memorial to Canadians who died in the two World Wars nearby. Covering 19 hectares (47 acres) Green Park in London is quite different from its neighbour St James's Park; it is more peaceful, with mature trees and grassland. Green Park, in London, is bordered by Constitution Hill, Piccadilly and Queen's Walk. With London’s rich diverse history, Translation Services have always been an essential part of the make up of London.
Regent's Park is situated in northwest London. It was originally a royal hunting forest. Regent's Park in London was landscaped by John Nash in the 1820s for the Royal Regent (later George the fourth). He surrounded it with elegant terraced houses, which you can still see today. The Regent's Park covers 166 hectares (410 acres) and includes stunning rose gardens with more than 30,000 roses of 400 varieties. The Park has excellent sports facilities and with nearly 100 acres available is the largest outdoor sports area in Central London.
London currently has a wide range of peoples, cultures, and religions, and more than 300 languages are spoken within the city. The United Kingdom does not have a constitutionally defined official language. However, English is the main language, being spoken by more than 70% of the UK population and is thus the de facto official language. Almost 10% of school children in London do not have English as their first language. Hence, translation and interpretation is required regularly.
On July 2007, London had an official population of 7,556,900 within the boundaries of Greater London making it the most populous municipality in the European Union.
With so many peoples, and so many languages, translation services and translation companies are essential parts of the lifeblood of London. High quality translation services at affordable prices are all the more essential in a time of global frugality.
