How it works

How to Translate Products to Slovenian

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 Slovenian

    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 Slovenian-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

Slovenian Product Information Checklist

Make sure your product data is complete and optimized for Slovenian-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

Slovenian Culture and Language Insights

Understanding the local culture is key to successful product translations

Recommended Tone and Style

Use a Mixed tone with a Polite, Direct, Informative, Trustworthy style when writing product descriptions.

Key Considerations

  • The Euro is the local currency; ensure all pricing is accurate and clearly displayed.
  • Slovenian consumers value quality, reliability, and clear product information.
  • Communication should be direct and informative, avoiding overly aggressive sales tactics.
  • A strong sense of national identity means content that acknowledges local culture and values is appreciated.
  • Data privacy and security are important concerns, so transparent policies are crucial.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Using generic South Slavic or Eastern European cultural references, as Slovenia has a distinct identity.
  • Relying solely on machine translation; professional human translation is essential for accuracy and nuance.
  • Ignoring local holidays and traditions in marketing campaigns and delivery schedules.
  • Not offering popular local payment methods, which can deter potential buyers.

Translation tips

  • Engage native Slovenian translators to ensure cultural relevance, grammatical accuracy, and natural phrasing.
  • Correctly adapt all numerical formats, including dates (DD.MM.YYYY), times (24-hour), and currency (Euro, e.g., 12,34 €).
  • Pay close attention to Slovenian's complex grammar, including noun cases and gender agreement, which are crucial for correct messaging.
  • Localize product descriptions to emphasize attributes like quality, durability, and value for money, which resonate with Slovenian consumers.
  • Ensure all legal texts, privacy policies, and terms and conditions are fully compliant with Slovenian and EU consumer protection laws.

Localization

Localizing for Slovenian-Speaking Customers

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

  • Slovenia exclusively uses the metric system. All measurements for length, weight, and volume should be presented in meters, centimeters, millimeters, kilograms, grams, and liters.
  • Clothing sizes primarily follow the European (EU) sizing system. For women, this typically ranges from 34-50; for men, 46-60. Always provide EU sizes; if international S/M/L is used, ensure EU numeric equivalents are clearly displayed.
  • Shoe sizes are based on the European (EU) sizing system (e.g., 38, 39, 40). US or UK shoe sizes are generally not understood without a conversion chart, which should be provided if those systems are referenced.
  • Weight units for products should be in kilograms (kg) for larger items (e.g., furniture, electronics) and grams (g) for smaller items (e.g., food, cosmetics). For very small quantities, milligrams (mg) are appropriate.
  • Product dimensions are typically presented in centimeters (cm) and follow the format Length x Width x Height (D x Š x V in Slovenian). For example, a box might be listed as '20 cm x 15 cm x 10 cm'.

  • The standard date format is DD. MM. YYYY, often with spaces after the periods, e.g., '31. 12. 2025'. Sometimes it is presented without spaces: '31.12.2025'.
  • The decimal separator is a comma (,), for example, '12,34 €'.
  • The thousand separator is a period (.) or a non-breaking space, for example, '1.234.567' or '1 234 567'.
  • The official currency is the Euro (€). The currency symbol typically follows the number, separated by a non-breaking space, e.g., '99,95 €'.
  • Time is usually expressed using the 24-hour format (e.g., '14:30'). AM/PM is rarely used. The week starts on Monday.

  • Authenticity and natural settings are highly valued. Lifestyle photography showing real people (not overly stylized or 'perfect' models) enjoying products in authentic Slovenian environments (e.g., mountain landscapes, city streets) resonates well.
  • Models should reflect the general Slovenian population, which is predominantly Caucasian. Aim for a diverse representation in terms of age and realistic body types. Imagery that promotes family values or shows small groups interacting positively is generally well-received.
  • Slovenian design aesthetics lean towards clean, functional, and user-friendly interfaces. Minimalist layouts with ample whitespace are preferred over cluttered or overly ornate designs. Clarity and ease of navigation are key.
  • Direct eye contact from models in imagery is generally acceptable and can foster a sense of connection and trust. Images depicting people in natural, everyday situations (e.g., casual gatherings, outdoor activities) are more effective than highly staged studio shots.
  • Imagery featuring Slovenia's natural beauty (e.g., Julian Alps, Lake Bled, Adriatic coast) can evoke a strong sense of local pride and connection. Avoid overly aggressive or provocative imagery, as Slovenians generally prefer a more understated and refined visual style.

  • Red is widely recognized for sales, discounts, and urgent calls to action (e.g., 'Akcija!' - Sale!). It conveys excitement and attention, similar to many Western markets.
  • Blue and green are strong colors for conveying trust, reliability, and environmental consciousness. Light blue is often used for technology, while darker blues are preferred for finance. Green is particularly effective for eco-friendly or health-related products, aligning with Slovenia's focus on nature.
  • Black, silver, gold, and deep purple are associated with premium quality, luxury, and sophistication. These colors are best used in minimalist designs to emphasize exclusivity and high value.
  • While black is often used for elegance and luxury, it is also traditionally associated with mourning. Use it carefully, ensuring the context aligns with premium rather than somber connotations. Brown can sometimes be perceived as dull or old-fashioned if not used thoughtfully.
  • White is associated with purity, cleanliness, and simplicity, making it suitable for products related to health, hygiene, or minimalism. Green's strong association with nature and sustainability makes it a powerful color for brands promoting ecological values, which resonates well in Slovenia.

Local SEO

Local SEO Tips for Slovenian

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

  • Google is the dominant search engine in Slovenia (over 95% market share). Focus SEO efforts almost exclusively on Google's algorithms and local search features.
  • Slovenian is a highly inflected language. Keyword research must account for various grammatical cases, numbers, and genders. Instead of just 'čevlji' (shoes), consider 'čevljev' (of shoes), 'čevljih' (in shoes), or 'za čevlje' (for shoes). Use keyword tools that support Slovenian morphology or conduct extensive manual variations research.
  • Slovenians appreciate detailed, informative content. Aim for well-structured long-form articles (800-1500 words) for educational topics, while product descriptions should be concise yet comprehensive, highlighting key features and benefits directly. A semi-formal, expert tone is generally preferred.
  • Prioritize local link building by seeking partnerships with prominent Slovenian news portals (e.g., RTV Slovenija, Delo, Siol.net), local business directories (e.g., Bizi.si, Najdi.si), and relevant industry associations or blogs within Slovenia.
  • Utilize a .si ccTLD for the Slovenian market to signal local relevance and build trust. Ensure local hosting within Slovenia or a nearby EU country for optimal page load speed, which is a significant ranking factor for mobile-first indexing.
  • Mobile search dominates, and while voice search is emerging, text-based queries are still prevalent. Optimize for mobile-first indexing and ensure your site is fully responsive. Implement structured data for local business information to appear in Google Maps and local search packs.

FAQ

Slovenian Product Translation FAQ

Common questions about translating products to Slovenian

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.
