Polyglot Connect is an Irish translation, interpreting and intercultural training agency based in Galway and working with clients across the country.
Today, people in Irish hospitals, courts, schools and reception centres speak Pashto, Arabic, Tigrinya, Ukrainian, Kurdish, Georgian and many more languages, and the moments they need them matter most: a visa application, a medical appointment, a court hearing. We started Polyglot Connect because a word-for-word translation isn’t enough when someone’s future depends on being understood.

Linguists first
Our linguists are native speakers who grew up inside the languages and cultures they work in. They know the dialect a family speaks at home, the way respect is shown, and how to carry meaning faithfully between two worlds.
Native speakers only
Every linguist works into or from their mother tongue, and is tested before any assignment.
Matched by dialect
A Sorani speaker for a Sorani speaker, a Dari interpreter for an Afghan client, not “Persian” in general.
Specialist by setting
Matched to medical, legal, educational or social care work based on experience.
Bound by a code of ethics
Accuracy, impartiality and confidentiality, with a signed agreement and GDPR training.
Every assignment is personally coordinated. Our project team matches each request to the right linguist and stays in touch until the job is done. Join our linguist network
