About

I’m Dr Abdoul Aziz Dieng, a French–English–Wolof linguist and translator with a research background and professional experience in law, academia, NGOs, and international organisations.

I specialise in high-stakes texts: contracts, court and conference material, journal articles, theses, policy papers, and institutional reports. My work combines precise terminology, clear structure, and culturally aware messaging so your documents read as if they were written directly in the target language.

I am a Member of the Chartered Institute of Linguists (MCIL), an Associate Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (AFHEA), and I work with clients in Europe and Africa who need reliable, publication-ready language services.

I help researchers, lawyers, NGOs and public bodies handle high-stakes texts accurately and on time.
