- We updated our report “Translation Pricing by Language Pair." For some rate tables, rounding to the 100ths place created a zero value for the minimum price. We replaced the “0.00” value with “<0.01” to reflect the non-zero, albeit very low, prices provided by some respondents. A more detailed explanation of this change can be found in the updated Methodology section in the report. Please download the revised version at our website and delete the previous version.
