How it works

How to Translate Products to Corsican

Get your product catalog translated and ready to sell in three simple steps

  1. 01

    Import your products

    Connect your e-commerce platform or upload your catalog as a file. WISEPIM takes over titles, descriptions, attributes and categories.

  2. 02

    AI translates to Corsican

    The AI translates your catalog with your glossary, your protected terms and your instructions per market. Numbers, units and model numbers stay as they are.

  3. 03

    Review and publish

    Review the translations and publish them to your sales channels. That way you reach Corsican-speaking customers without going through an agency.

Example

One article: what changes, what stays

An example from a sanitary catalog. Texts and option values are translated. Numbers, units and article numbers stay exactly as they are.

One article: what changes, what stays
Product nameThermostatic shower mixer, surface-mounted, DN 15, chromeTranslated, with the terms from your glossary
Material (option value)BrassTranslated once for every product with this value
Connection1/2"Stays 1/2"
Flow rate22 l/minStays 22 l/min
Article numberTB-4415-CRStays TB-4415-CR (protected term)

In a Catalog Jobs translation run, a text whose numbers, units or protected terms do not match the source waits in the Review queue instead of going live.

Checklist

Corsican Product Information Checklist

Make sure your product data is complete and optimized for Corsican-speaking customers

Product Content

  • Build titles in the order your channel expects: brand, product type, key spec, model
  • Keep article numbers, EANs and model codes untranslated as protected terms
  • Use one term per concept across the whole catalog, set in your glossary
  • Translate safety notes and claims exactly, and never add new ones
  • Check that bullet points name the same specs as the source

Attributes and Specifications

  • Translate option values once per attribute, not per product
  • Keep spec values identical: DN 15, 1/2" and 22 l/min stay as they are
  • Write decimals and thousands the way the target market does
  • Mark brand and series names as never translate
  • Check units the market writes differently, without changing the value

SEO and Discoverability

  • Keep meta titles under 60 and meta descriptions under 160 characters
  • Use the search terms buyers in the market use, not literal translations
  • Translate the alt text of your images
  • Map your categories to the category names of the market
  • Set hreflang tags for every language version

Culture and language

Corsican Culture and Language Insights

Understanding the local culture is key to successful product translations

Recommended Tone and Style

Use a Mixed tone with a Respectful, Community-oriented, Authentic, Proud style when writing product descriptions.

Key Considerations

  • Strong sense of Corsican identity and pride in local culture and heritage.
  • Emphasis on family and community values, often reflected in purchasing decisions.
  • Appreciation for local products, craftsmanship, and 'made in Corsica' labels.
  • Sensitivity to historical context and the island's unique political status within France.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Assuming Corsican consumers are identical to mainland French consumers without regional nuance.
  • Ignoring the Corsican language or failing to offer content in Corsican, even if French is widely understood.
  • Not highlighting local sourcing, sustainability, or community benefits when applicable.
  • Using generic French cultural references that do not resonate with Corsican identity.

Translation tips

  • Prioritize translation into Corsican for a strong cultural connection, even if French is widely understood. This shows respect for the local identity.
  • Use localized terminology, especially for place names, local products, and cultural concepts, ensuring authenticity.
  • Ensure a respectful and authentic tone that resonates with Corsican values of community and heritage.
  • Be mindful of the unique grammatical structures and vocabulary of Corsican, which has influences from both Italian and French but is distinct.

Localization

Localizing for Corsican-Speaking Customers

Translation is just the start. Adapt your content to local expectations for maximum impact.

  • The metric system is exclusively used for all measurements. Products should display dimensions in centimeters (cm) or millimeters (mm) and weights in grams (g) or kilograms (kg).
  • Clothing sizes follow the European (EU) standard, typically ranging from 34-50 for women and 44-60 for men. It is common to also show corresponding French (Taille S, M, L) or international (XS, S, M) sizes.
  • Shoe sizes are universally expressed using the European (EU) sizing system (e.g., 38, 39, 40). Providing a conversion chart to UK or US sizes can be helpful for international visitors but the primary display should be EU.
  • Product weights are always in kilograms (kg) for larger items (e.g., 1.5 kg) and grams (g) for smaller items (e.g., 250 g). Nutritional information will also be per 100g.
  • Dimensions for packaging or products are typically presented as Length x Width x Height, using 'cm' or 'mm', e.g., "20 cm x 15 cm x 5 cm" or "L 20cm x l 15cm x H 5cm".

  • Date format is typically DD/MM/YYYY or DD.MM.YYYY. For example, '31/12/2025' or '31.12.2025'.
  • The decimal separator is a comma (,). For example, '1,23 €' for one euro and twenty-three cents.
  • The thousand separator is a non-breaking space ( ). For example, '1 234 567,89'.
  • Currency is the Euro (€). The symbol is generally placed after the amount, preceded by a non-breaking space. For example, '99,95 €' or '1 250,00 €'.
  • Time is expressed using the 24-hour format. For example, '14:30' for 2:30 PM. The week starts on Monday.

  • Embrace naturalistic and authentic photography that showcases Corsican landscapes, traditional architecture, and local life. Studio shots should be clean but avoid overly stylized or artificial aesthetics; a more 'real' feel is preferred.
  • Models should reflect the local population, with Mediterranean features and a natural appearance. Authenticity is valued over idealized perfection. Include a mix of ages and body types, depicting genuine interactions and warmth, often in outdoor or traditional settings.
  • Design aesthetics lean towards clean, functional layouts but with an appreciation for natural textures, earthy color palettes, and elements that evoke the island's beauty (e.g., blues of the sea, greens of the maquis, stone textures).
  • Imagery featuring people should convey warmth and community. Group shots, especially those depicting families or friends enjoying Corsican life or products, resonate well. Direct eye contact is acceptable and can convey sincerity.
  • Integrate culturally relevant imagery such as the 'Tête de Maure' (Moor's Head) symbol (used with respect), images of traditional Corsican crafts (e.g., couteaux corses, pottery), local produce (chestnuts, clementines, cheeses), and iconic Corsican landmarks.

  • For sales and discounts, red is the universally recognized color, similar to mainland France and other Western markets. Orange can also be used to signal promotions.
  • Blue is a strong color for trust and reliability, often used by financial institutions and professional services. Green is associated with nature, sustainability, and quality, resonating well with Corsica's natural environment and artisan products.
  • Black, gold, silver, and deep blues or purples are effective for signifying premium quality, luxury, and sophistication, especially for high-end Corsican products like fine wines or artisanal jewelry.
  • While there are no universally taboo colors in a broad e-commerce context, avoid overly aggressive or clashing color schemes. Earthy tones and natural palettes that reflect the Corsican landscape (e.g., terracotta, olive green, azure blue) are generally well-received and convey authenticity.
  • The 'Tête de Maure' symbol, which is black on white, is deeply significant to Corsican identity. While not a general color meaning, its respectful inclusion in branding can be very powerful, signifying pride and heritage.

Local SEO

Local SEO Tips for Corsican

Optimize your product content for search engines in Corsican-speaking markets

  • Prioritize Google (Google.fr) as the dominant search engine. While Corsican is spoken, most online searches, even for local products and services, are conducted in French. Ensure robust French keyword optimization.
  • Integrate Corsican language keywords (e.g., "prodotti corsi" for Corsican products, "artigianatu corsu" for Corsican craftsmanship, "vinu corsu" for Corsican wine) alongside French terms in product descriptions, meta data, and blog content to capture niche local searches and demonstrate cultural appreciation.
  • Focus on local SEO by creating dedicated pages for major Corsican cities (Ajaccio, Bastia, Porto-Vecchio, Calvi) and optimizing content with region-specific phrases (e.g., "hotel à Ajaccio", "restaurant Bastia vieux port"). Leverage Google My Business listings thoroughly for each physical location.
  • Build local links by engaging with Corsican tourism boards (e.g., Agence du Tourisme de la Corse), local news outlets (Corse-Matin, Alta Frequenza), regional business directories (Chambre de Commerce et d'Industrie de Corse), and collaborating with local artisans or producers for content partnerships.
  • Utilize a .fr ccTLD for the primary French market and consider hreflang="co-FR" for any specific Corsican language versions of content, even if it's a subdirectory, to signal linguistic and regional relevance to search engines.
  • Develop mobile-first content, as mobile usage is very high. Optimize for voice search queries which often include longer, more conversational phrases in French, such as "où acheter du fromage corse à Ajaccio" (where to buy Corsican cheese in Ajaccio).

FAQ

Corsican Product Translation FAQ

Common questions about translating products to Corsican

WISEPIM translates with the glossary and do-not-translate terms from your Knowledge Library, so product names and fixed terms come out the way you set them. It handles product descriptions, technical specifications, and sales copy. It typically delivers 95%+ accuracy. You can review and edit every translation before publishing, and reviewer feedback can become new glossary terms and settings for the next run.

It depends on the size of your catalog and the number of languages. Bulk translations run in the background as a job, so you can keep working, and you get a notification when the results are ready to review. Before you start, a free preview shows how many texts per language need translating and what the run costs in credits.

Yes, within the rules you set. The AI adapts tone, wording and formatting to the target market, and you steer it per project with a glossary of fixed translations, words that are never translated (brand names, model codes) and your own instructions. In a Catalog Jobs translate run, every new translation is checked for kept numbers and units, protected terms, intact HTML and length limits, and a text that fails waits in the Review queue instead of going live.

Yes, if you turn on SEO optimization in your translation settings. Meta titles, meta descriptions and meta keywords are then written for search in the target language, with natural keyword placement and the original meaning kept. With it off, they are translated faithfully at a similar length. In a Catalog Jobs translate run, meta titles over 60 characters and meta descriptions over 160 go to the Review queue.

Yes, you have full control. You can edit any translated content directly in WISEPIM and push the changes to your connected sales channels. If you update the original product description, you choose whether to translate it again or keep your manual edits. On paid plans, the operation history lets you undo changes at any time.

Translation runs on credits. A standard translation of one product into one language costs one credit, and a higher-quality tier costs more per product. Before every run, a free preview shows how many texts per language will be translated and how many credits the run takes, so you can start with one category.

Yes. WISEPIM translates from your project's main language, so your source data does not have to be in English. You pick the target languages for each run.

Push it to a connected shop, export it as a file or feed from Feed Hub, or share a read-only Brand Portal in the languages you choose. Dealers browse it, download the data or import it into their own WISEPIM.
