It’s always interesting to look back at the results from the last period, to see what went well and where we need to make more effort. The numbers usually speak for themselves. They reflect not only the results of our work but also changes in society. The number of language combinations translated, languages translated from/into, is increasing. This means we are increasingly open to new cultures. More translations from Lithuanian mean that we step out into the wider world more and more boldly, and the fact that translations into Lithuanian are also requested more often reflects the trend of us being more and more interesting to the rest of the world. Looking at the results from last year, we can see which languages are being translated more frequently and which less often. Although the top five most popular languages and language combinations changed only slightly compared with 2021, the year that has just started is already full of surprises. But we’ll count them next year. In the meantime, here are the results for 2022:
| 1. Most frequently requested service: | Translation |
| 2. Total number of language combinations: | 193 |
| 3. Language from which most translations were made: | Lithuanian |
| 4. Language from which translations were made least often: | Sanskrit |
| 5. Most popular language combination: | English-Lithuanian |
| 6. Most infrequent language combination: | Thai-English |

We offer more than 20 services to our clients. The most popular services are translation, editing, translation certification (notarisation of the translator’s signature, certification by agency stamp, arranging for authentication of the document (apostille)), simultaneous interpreting and informative interpreting. Our most popular service is translation, with almost 1,000 more orders per year. We are pleased that the number of orders for other services has also increased.

Most popular and more infrequent languages
In 2022, we translated from/into 62 languages! And this is far more than the 45 languages we translated in 2021. It’s safe to say that our international friendships are paying off and we can offer our clients translations into many more and less common languages. The most popular languages we translated into/from remain the same: Lithuanian, English, Russian, Latvian and German. Lithuanian and English were the languages most frequently listed in our orders. And the least common languages were the most pleasing, especially as it’s the first time we’ve added them to our list of languages. Sanskrit was the language we were proud to translate for the first time in 2022 – it was not on our list in 2021. We had the same number of translation requests for Armenian in both 2021 and 2022 – 2 each year. Montenegrin and Filipino were also new in 2022.
