The attached report summarises the results of the field survey carried out between January and April. The findings will be presented to the steering committee on 12 May, together with the proposed budget for the next phase.
Der beigefügte Bericht fasst die Ergebnisse der zwischen Januar und April durchgeführten Felduntersuchung zusammen. Die Erkenntnisse werden am 12. Mai dem Lenkungsausschuss vorgelegt, zusammen mit dem für die nächste Phase vorgeschlagenen Budget.
German texts are longer than English, build long compound nouns, and need a clear choice between "Sie" and "du". Get these wrong and a contract sounds careless or a website sounds cold. DeepReference writes correct, natural German, keeps your terminology consistent, and rebuilds the layout around the longer text.
What changes in this pair
Sie or du, consistently
Choose a formal tone for contracts and customer letters or an informal one for apps and marketing, and the whole document keeps the same form of address.
Room for longer German
German often runs 20 to 30 per cent longer than English. Tables, headings and slides are rebuilt around the translated text.
Terminology that stays fixed
Technical and legal German has strong conventions. A glossary fixes the terms your company uses, so manuals and contracts always match.
German number and date formats
Dates and numbers are written the German way: 12. Mai 2026, 1.250,50, 9,4 %.

Frequently asked questions
Is English to German translation free?
Yes. Without an account you can translate up to 500 words and one document a month. A free account gives you 1,000 words and one document every month. Paid plans are for regular, larger volumes.
Can I translate a PDF or Word file into German and keep the layout?
Yes. Upload a DOCX, PDF, XLSX or PPTX file and you get the same file type back in German, with headings, tables and lists in place. Text inside images is not translated.
Does it use "Sie" or "du"?
Business and official texts are translated with the formal "Sie". With an account you can choose the tone yourself, for example informal for an app or a young audience.
Can I translate from German to English too?
Yes. Press the swap button between the two languages.
Is my text safe?
Your text is encrypted in your browser before it is sent, and only DeepReference servers open it, to translate it. Your documents are not used to train the model unless the account owner turns that on.
