Lexinova: Ein Cenhadaeth a Phobl
Stori Lexinova Gwasanaethau Iaith
Ein Enw
Lexinova - mwy na dim ond enw - mae'n addewid i gyflawni.
Rooted in the word “Lexi”, meaning language, speech, or expression, we honour the power of words to connect, persuade, and inspire across borders.
“Nova”, meaning new or a star reborn, speaks to clarity, brilliance, and transformation - the spark that turns simple translation into meaningful communication.
Together, Lexinova reflects our mission: To bring fresh light to language, and help your message shine - wherever in the world it needs to be heard.
Y Weledigaeth Wreiddiol Gennym
Lexinova Language Services was born from a real-world need.
Our leadership team brings extensive experience in the Hospitality and Tourism industries - from working at a 5-star resort in Mexico and managing a hotel in the UK, to roles with international airlines. Across these experiences, we saw firsthand how language barriers often led to confusion, missed opportunities, and a diminished guest experience - not just occasionally, but consistently across the global hospitality and travel sectors.
From menus that missed the mark to safety notices that were poorly translated, the need for clear, culturally aware communication was obvious.
We've all seen those humorous mistranslations online - but behind them is a serious message: language matters. Precision and professionalism in translation aren’t luxuries; they’re essentials.
With this in mind, a team of experienced linguists was brought together - experts in language, culture, and industry-specific nuance. While hospitality and tourism were our original focus, we’ve since grown to serve a wide range of sectors with the same commitment to clarity, consistency, and care.
Our Ethos
At Lexinova, language is more than words - it's connection, clarity, and trust.
We believe that great translation is invisible. It flows naturally, feels authentic, and speaks to its audience with precision and respect. That’s why every project we take on - whether a legal contract, a marketing campaign, or guest-facing hospitality collateral — is treated with the same care and attention to detail.
Our ethos is grounded in three principles:
- Accuracy with Meaning - We don’t just translate; we convey intention, tone, and context.
- Cultural Sensitivity - Language is rooted in culture. We ensure your message resonates where it matters most.
- Integrity in Delivery - On time, on brief, and always to the highest standard.
We are a people-first company, built on relationships, collaboration, and a genuine passion for language. Whether you're speaking to five people or five million, we're here to make sure you're heard - clearly and confidently.
