Frisian (Frysk)

Frisian (Frysk)

About 

Frisian’s small but stubborn. Spoken in the north of the Netherlands, it’s often called “English’s cousin” because some words are weirdly familiar: “tsiis” = cheese, “bern” = children. You get little déjà vu moments all the time.

Locals switch between Frisian and Dutch constantly, often mid-sentence. Among friends, Frisian dominates; in cities, Dutch takes over. Slang blends the two together into something unteachable in textbooks.

Example from a café:
"Bist der moarn ek by?"
(“You coming tomorrow too?”)

The vibe’s casual, warm, and unpretentious. Watch Frisian music videos on YouTube — modern songs mix Dutch and English, and you’ll get the slang naturally.

About Enuncia Global

Enuncia Global is… well, I guess the simplest way to put it is we’re in the business of languages. Not just translation in the boring dictionary sense, but kind of making communication smoother between people who otherwise would stare blankly at each other. We do translations, voice overs, subtitles, all that. Sometimes it feels like we’re everywhere—legal docs one day, video game dialogues the next, and then suddenly some corporate brochure that has to sound “professional but not robotic.”

I think what makes Enuncia Global different (and I don’t want to sound like a cliché company profile here, but still) is that it’s not only about throwing words from one language to another. We actually care about tone, style, culture… because honestly, what’s the point of translating if you lose the feel of it? Like, imagine a joke translated literally—it just dies, right? We try to keep that soul alive.

We’ve got a team that’s oddly diverse. Some are language nerds, some are techies who enjoy making websites and SEO stuff work, and then there are project managers who somehow manage to keep everyone from losing their minds. Not easy.

At the end of the day, it’s about trust. Clients give us sensitive stuff—sometimes personal, sometimes business secrets—and we deliver, quietly, without fuss. Maybe that’s why people stick with us. Anyway, that’s Enuncia Global in short.
