A standard measure of the size of an original or a translated
text. Since word count can vary between languages, it is
crucial to specify whether the per-word rate being quoted
refers to the source or target language. In general, a Spanish
document will be twenty percent longer than its English
counterpart so, if you are translating a document from English
to Spanish, make sure that the translation provider charges
per source word. Also, in this way, you will know the cost for
your translation project in advance.
