With three decades of expertise, Lichi Translations has won an impressive reputation in Israel and abroad for the quality and care of its work. We deal with every language and every project – never taking anything for granted.
Mikhal Heffer founded the Lichi Translations agency in Israel in 1997 after graduating in Chinese and East Asian Studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. She enriched her knowledge at Beijing University. She also worked for several years as a Chinese interpreter.
So we began by specializing in Chinese and other Asian languages. Since perception and understanding is highly valued in the East, we learnt very early how vital it is to embrace the culture, find the ‘local way of language’ and be authentic.
Later we expanded into many additional languages. Today we undertake a wide range of translations/interpretation from any language to any other language (even the lesser-used ones).
Our translation agency in Israel is known for applying its professionalism to every project that comes to us – no matter what the size. Our clients note how much we invest to assess, plan, implement and double-check. It’s a defining factor.
A leading quality that our clients appreciate with Lichi is our ‘can-do’ approach – as well as our dedication to benefit from the latest technology. For example, we’re skilled at integrating AI tools to make translation jobs as cost-effective as possible for clients.
Over the years, we’ve served a wide range of needs – from simultaneous interpreting and transcription to website translation, working in specialized fields like law and medicine and supporting business and marketing events.
To ensure that Lichi can respond to client requests, we’ve built up an outstanding network of more than 4000 translators and interpreters around the world. The right person can make all the difference.
Translation alone may not be enough to open doors in foreign markets. So we now have Lichi Copy – a new unit that can elevate your translated content with skilled copywriting and editing.
When you need to communicate authentically and credibly in another language, the Lichi Translations agency in Israel provides a complete solution – guiding you through different cultures, audiences and contexts. Make your contact in any country far easier.
English to Hebrew translation is often underestimated. Many assume that if you know both languages, you can translate easily. But in practice, it’s not that simple. Hebrew is structurally and culturally different from English. It’s concise, gendered, and context-heavy. A good translation doesn’t just transfer words – it transfers intention,
Until very recently, you’d always go to an individual or an agency for serious translations. Now AI seems to have taken over. But no, it’s not that simple. The machine translation is a good servant but a poor master.
