Prism Linguistics arranges Luxembourgeois translation and interpreting across Canada, though requests are rare and most work runs from French or German. Luxembourgeois, or Luxembourgish, is a Germanic language written in the Latin alphabet and the national spoken language of Luxembourg, whose administration is carried out mainly in French and German. The community in Canada is very small, so interpreting is usually delivered by telephone or video where it is genuinely needed.

Interpreting into Luxembourgeois is seldom required, because speakers are typically fluent in French, German or English and can give evidence in one of those. At booking we confirm whether Luxembourgeois is truly the working language for an appointment or whether another language is the practical choice.
Where Luxembourgeois is genuinely needed, interpreters attend IRCC interviews, Canadian court or notarial meetings, and medical appointments under PHIPA and PIPEDA. Given the very small number of speakers in Canada, sessions usually run by telephone or video, with in-person attendance where an interpreter is available locally. We are a private agency, not a court-appointed vendor.
Common settings include legal and court interpreting, medical and hospital interpreting, IRCC and Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB) interviews, and police and enforcement work. See all on-site interpreting options or start a free quote.
A certified translation almost always works from a French or German document rather than from Luxembourgeois, because civil records such as birth, marriage and nationality certificates are issued in one of those administrative languages. We confirm which language a record is in before starting.
Where a genuinely Luxembourgeois text appears, such as correspondence or a cultural certificate, we translate it from the script as it stands. A translation is issued by a certified translator or supported by a sworn affidavit before a commissioner of oaths, and acceptance ultimately depends on the receiving institution.
For documents rather than spoken interpreting, see certified Luxembourgeois translation, our full Luxembourgeois translation services, or general document translation. Every translation moves through our TEP workflow — translation, editing and proofreading by separate linguists — with free revisions.

Luxembourgeois is the French name for Luxembourgish, the national language of Luxembourg; see our Luxembourgish page. Luxembourg operates in three languages, and its civil documents are normally issued in French or German rather than Luxembourgish. In practice that means a Luxembourg birth certificate needs a French or German translator, not a Luxembourgish one. We check which language the document is actually in before quoting, so clients do not pay for a pairing they do not need.
Usually not. Official records are issued in French or German, and we translate those on the same file.
Rarely. Most speakers are fluent in French, German or English, so tell us the preference and we match the interpreter.
We provide a certified translator's declaration or a sworn affidavit, but acceptance ultimately depends on the receiving institution.
Tell us the language, the setting and the date through our quote form or by phone. We return a written quote with the exact price and turnaround, usually within 60 minutes during business hours, before you commit.
