Aramaic Translators in Winnipeg, MB

Certified Aramaic translation of parish records and Aramaic interpreting for refugee and IRCC matters in Winnipeg and across Canada, with attention to the Assyrian, Chaldean and Syriac varieties.

Certified Aramaic to English Translation in Winnipeg

We provide certified Aramaic to English translation of church baptismal, marriage and membership records, along with the Arabic, Persian or Turkish civil documents behind a refugee or family reunification claim. Name transliterations are matched to the passport and alternate spellings noted against the original.

Aramaic is written in the Syriac script, which has several traditional forms such as the older Estrangela and the Eastern Madnhaya hand used by Assyrian and Chaldean churches. It reads right to left and marks vowels with small points rather than full letters, so it is set, not simply typed. Assyrian, Chaldean and Syriac Aramaic are spoken in Iraq, Syria, Iran and southeastern Turkey, where the state issues birth, marriage and identity records in Arabic, Persian or Turkish rather than in Aramaic. A request for an Aramaic translation is therefore often really a request to translate those Arabic or Persian civil records, while the Aramaic-language documents are usually church baptismal, marriage and membership certificates.

The variety matters for spelling and names. Assyrian Neo-Aramaic and Chaldean Neo-Aramaic are Eastern varieties, while Turoyo, or Surayt, comes from the Tur Abdin region of Turkey, and a personal name can be transliterated several ways across them. We keep the name spelling consistent with the passport and note the alternate forms against the original, so a refugee or family reunification file reads as one person.

Translations are issued as a certified translation by a qualified translator, or as a sworn affidavit made before a commissioner of oaths where a receiving body prefers one. Acceptance ultimately depends on the receiving institution, such as IRCC, the IRB or a provincial registry.

Every certified Aramaic translation is a complete, word-for-word rendering with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy, prepared to meet IRCC requirements. It is done from a clear scan, so a client in Winnipeg gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in Canada. See certified Aramaic translation for the document service in full.

Aramaic Translation Services in Winnipeg

Aramaic Interpreters in Winnipeg

Our Aramaic interpreters cover IRB hearings, IRCC interviews and medical and legal appointments in Winnipeg, matching the Assyrian, Chaldean or Turoyo variety a speaker uses rather than assuming one covers the others.

We arrange Aramaic interpreters for IRB refugee hearings, IRCC interviews, and hospital and legal appointments. Tell us the variety at intake: an Assyrian Neo-Aramaic speaker and a Turoyo speaker may not fully follow one another. We confirm the preferred language and the interpreting requirements before the appointment so testimony is given through an Aramaic interpreter in the right variety.

Interpreting is offered in Winnipeg on site, and by phone or video across Canada. Remote sessions are common for Aramaic and let us match the right variety rather than the nearest available speaker.

For an in-person assignment in Winnipeg we assign an Aramaic interpreter based in or near the city. Telephone and video interpreting can usually be arranged the same day. Courts, law firms, hospitals, IRCC applicants and private clients book us directly. See Aramaic interpreter in Winnipeg for the full interpreting service.

About the Aramaic Language

Neo-Aramaic dialects are spoken by Assyrian and Chaldean Christian communities from Iraq, Syria, Iran and southeastern Turkey. Ontario, particularly Toronto and Windsor, is where most requests reach us. Work tends to be church baptismal and marriage records, Iraqi or Syrian civil documents, and refugee claim narratives for the IRB. The dialects differ enough that we confirm which variety is involved before assigning a linguist, since an interpreter for one is not reliably useful for another.

Aramaic Translation Services in Winnipeg: FAQs

Are my birth and marriage certificates in Aramaic or in Arabic?

Usually in Arabic, Persian or Turkish, because Iraq, Syria, Iran and Turkey issue civil records in the state language. We translate those, and separately handle any Aramaic church records such as a baptismal certificate. Acceptance ultimately depends on the receiving institution.

Which Aramaic do your interpreters speak?

We cover the Eastern varieties, Assyrian and Chaldean Neo-Aramaic, and the Central variety Turoyo. We ask which you speak at intake because they are not always mutually clear, and we match accordingly for a hearing or a medical visit.

Can you certify the translation for IRCC?

We provide a certified translation by a qualified translator, or a translation supported by a sworn affidavit before a commissioner of oaths. The receiving institution makes the final decision.
