Science book translation with the same term from the first chapter to the last
For publishers, universities and researchers. Tarjum translates a science book with your glossary, keeps its equations and tables, and redraws its figures in Arabic. It works the same way from Arabic into English.
A science book makes no sense without its figures
In al-Khwarizmi’s book of algebra, written in Baghdad around 820, equations are solved with drawings and words together. The word “algebra” itself comes from its title. So Tarjum does not leave figures behind: each one is redrawn in the book’s language, with its digits and its direction, and its caption stays text beneath it.
An illustration made for this page. Real figures appear in the full chapter once it has run.

Figures in the book’s language
The figure is redrawn in Arabic, with Arabic digits, and its caption comes out as text beneath it. General translation tools leave the words inside pictures as they were.

Questions about translating science books
Do equations and symbols stay correct?
An equation stays as it is in the original, with its number and its tie to the text, and your reviewer sees it on the page before approving.
How does a term stay the same across chapters?
The term is decided once in the glossary, and any departure from it is flagged for review.
Does it work for a research paper or a thesis?
We built Tarjum for books. You can try it on your paper, but this page is about books and reference works.
