What is Transcreation?

Transcreation is adapting content into another language so that it keeps its meaning, tone, intent and cultural fit, rather than translating it word for word. For Arabic audiences in the Gulf, it means writing as a native writer would for that audience, not converting English sentences.

Why it matters

Literal translation reads as foreign and can change the meaning.

How Marca uses it

Arabic is written originally across every service.
