 
German Translation ServiceThe Blue South German translation service covers both English into German and German into English. All Blue South translators are native speakers who Translate in Location™ which means they live and are immersed in the culture of the language that they translate into. As business translations typically involve a specific subject area, we use Topic Targeted Translators™ who specialise in the subject matter of your business. Worldwide, German accounts for the most written translations into and from a language. It is one of the official languages of the European union, and one of the three working languages of the European Commission, along with English and French. The German Government aims to enhance the position of German within the EU as an official and working language. In doing so, it is guided by the idea that knowledge of foreign languages beyond the global lingua franca English is a fundamental element of Germany's ability to compete in Europe and in the world. It complements this policy with special language courses for EU civil servants and for decision-makers from EU member states who deal with European issues. According to Global Reach (2004), 6.9% of the Internet population is German. According to Netz-tipp (2002), 7.7% of WebPages are written in German, making it second only to English. They also report that 12% of Google's users use its German interface. Babel (1998) found somewhat similar demographics. FUNREDES (1998) and Vilaweb (2001) both found that German is the third most popular language used by websites, after English and Japanese.
