Who are we?

Dréimire was founded to provide Irish language services to companies, organisations and to the community in Ireland and across the world. Since then, we have been providing excellent translation, reviewing and voice-over services to a wide range of customers including state organisations, public and private companies, advertising agencies, Gaeltacht and Irish language organisations, charities, the voluntary sector, individuals and larger translation agencies in Europa, America and Japan.

As well as our translation and review service, Dréimire also provides consultation, facilitation and language planning services to companies and organisations operating in language contact situations. Our team has expert knowledge in this field, and can advise you on various matters including the Official Languages Act, Language Impact Statements for developments, international best practice for minority and minoritised languages, and much more.

With offices in Conamara and Dublin, our team is always available to advise new and existing customers on the services that will best suit their needs. Got a question? Talk to Hannah or Áine today!

Our Panel

As well as our full-time staff, Dréimire works closely with a panel of 15 qualified translators to ensure a high-quality service and quick turnaround for our customers. This panel is a huge asset to Dréimire, as it means that we have a larger pool of industry-specific expertise and experience available, as well as having translators who can deal with all the major dialects as well as standard Irish.
