German Engineering & Technical translation
German along with Afrikaans, English, Dutch, Scots and Frisian, belong to West Germanic family of languages. The common feature which all these languages share are the many common lexemes, which is a unit of lexical meaning that exists regardless of the number of inflectional endings. Widely spoken in Central Europe, German is the co-official language in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, South Tyrol (Italy), the German-speaking Community of Belgium and Liechtenstein. It is also one of the three official languages of Luxembourg.
