Annotations are detailed explanations of anything that’s not 100% literal in a language that needs to be translated in order to create the most accurate, natural translation possible. It’s impossible to understand every expression and its true meaning to be able to do justice to faithfully convey the same meaning into another language.   There are many idioms, expressions, catchphrases, colloquialism, street talk, dialect, jargon, lingo, locution, similes, phraseology and many different ways to communicate in any language. Since almost every translator has a native tongue that he or she is translating into, the source language can be tricky at times.    Our skilled writers and editors analyze the script for any non-literal language, essentially reducing it down to the bare bones.
