Temne interpreting and certified translation for IRB, IRCC and medical matters in Regina and across Canada, with Sierra Leonean records usually already in English.
We provide certified translation into English of the records a Temne-speaking family holds, most of which are issued in English, with a sworn affidavit where an original was registered late or reconstructed.
Temne is a Mel language of Sierra Leone and, with Mende, one of the country's two largest languages, spoken mainly in the northern and western areas. It is written in the Latin alphabet. Sierra Leone issues civil records in English, so a birth, marriage or death certificate normally arrives in English and document translation runs the other way, with the Temne element of a file being the interpreting.
Many Sierra Leonean records were affected by the civil war years, so a birth may have been registered late or a certificate reconstructed, and a sworn affidavit before a commissioner of oaths can set out how a name or date was established. We keep name spellings consistent with the passport. Output is issued by a certified translator or supported by affidavit, and acceptance ultimately depends on the receiving institution such as IRCC, the IRB or a provincial registry.
Every certified Temne 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 Regina gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in Canada. See certified Temne translation for the document service in full.
Certified translation for a Temne-speaking family in Regina usually means rendering an already English Sierra Leonean record, with a sworn affidavit where a birth was registered late or a certificate was reconstructed after the war years, and the name kept consistent with the passport.
Regina is Saskatchewan's capital, a centre for government, agriculture, energy and finance on Treaty 4 territory and in the homeland of the Metis. Immigration has reshaped the city, with newcomers making up a large share of recent growth. Tagalog and Punjabi are the most common non-official mother tongues, followed by Arabic, Hindi and Spanish, while Cree, Michif and other Indigenous languages remain part of the region.
This diversity creates steady demand for translation and interpreting. The Court of King's Bench for Saskatchewan and the Provincial Court of Saskatchewan both sit in Regina, and the Regina General Hospital under the Saskatchewan Health Authority treats patients across many languages. The University of Regina, the Regina Open Door Society and other settlement agencies serving IRCC newcomers, and employers in government, agriculture and energy regularly need accurate translation and interpreting.
Our Temne interpreters cover IRB hearings, IRCC interviews, legal aid and medical appointments in Regina, matched to Temne specifically rather than a Krio speaker by default.
We arrange Temne interpreters for IRB refugee protection hearings, IRCC interviews, legal aid, and hospital and clinic appointments. Krio is the lingua franca of Sierra Leone and English its official language, but a Temne file calls for a Temne interpreter, so we confirm the language the speaker prefers and the requirements of the hearing or appointment before assigning.
Interpreters attend on site in Regina or join by phone and video across Canada. Remote sessions are common and let us match a Temne interpreter to the booking wherever the appointment falls.

Temne is a Mel language spoken by around 1.5 million people primarily in northern Sierra Leone. It's one of Sierra Leone's two largest indigenous languages alongside Mende. Temne speakers in Canada are found in Toronto and other large cities. Our Temne translation work is typically IRB and IRCC paperwork, and Sierra Leonean records affected by the 1991-2002 civil war may have been registered late or reconstructed.
