Navajo & Hopi audio translation

Some languages live in the voice, not on the page.

HBA translates public notices, health and customer information, and official communications into spoken Diné (Navajo) and Hopi — so the people who need to hear them, do.

Arizona LLC Fluent Diné & Hopi translators VRA §203-aligned Broadcast-ready audio
What we do

Translation built for the spoken word.

We turn public notices, health and safety information, utility and customer messages, and official documents into spoken or written Diné and Hopi — and translate the same languages back into English — every word produced by fluent, bilingual speakers. Send us the material, and we return it ready to reach the people an English-only version would miss.

Spoken audio is our specialty — the same fluency built for §203 election materials in covered counties carries health notices, customer communications, contracts, and filings just as faithfully.

Delivered broadcast-ready — MP3 or WAV, sized for radio, robocall, social, or in-person playback.

How it works

From your file to broadcast-ready.

01

Send the material

Email us the notice, script, or document — and tell us the language (Diné, Hopi, or both) and whether you need spoken audio, written text, or both.

02

Translated by fluent speakers

Every translation is done by hand by fluent, bilingual Diné and Hopi speakers — never machine translation — so the meaning carries the way it's actually spoken.

03

Delivered to spec

You get back broadcast-ready audio (MP3 or WAV) or clean written text, sized and formatted for radio, robocall, social, print, or in-person playback.

Why audio

Written translation doesn't reach everyone. Voice does.

Diné and Hopi are living, spoken languages — carried for generations in the voice, not on the page. A printed notice often never reaches the speakers it was meant for. Audio meets people where they already are: a health alert a patient actually understands, an outage notice a household actually hears, a ballot instruction a voter can actually follow.

Hear it — Diné (Navajo)
Hear it — Hopi
Who we serve

For everyone who has to get it right in Diné or Hopi.

Government & public agencies

Cities, towns, and agencies putting out public notices, emergency alerts, and program information that has to reach Diné and Hopi speakers — not just be posted in English.

Health & human services

Clinics, IHS, and tribal health programs delivering patient information, health alerts, and consent materials in the language patients actually speak.

Utilities & business

Utilities and companies sending customer notices, outage and safety information, billing, and HR or contract materials that land with Diné and Hopi households and staff.

Tribal nations & programs

Diné and Hopi governments and programs localizing their own communications, or rendering them into English for federal reporting.

Section 203 voting compliance

Covered for Section 203? We're built for it.

Navajo County is a covered jurisdiction under Section 203 of the Voting Rights Act — federally required to provide election materials in Diné (Navajo) and Hopi. For languages carried in the voice, audio isn't a courtesy; it's the form the law calls for.

HBA produces election notices, ballot instructions, and voter-assistance materials in broadcast-ready Diné and Hopi audio — fluent, accurate, delivered to spec. It's the deepest credential we hold — and exactly what we're built to deliver for covered counties.

Produced by fluent, bilingual Diné and Hopi speakers — the accuracy a machine or a non-speaker can't reach.

Our standard

Certified, verified, answerable.

Certified accurate

Every deliverable ships with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy from a fluent, first-language speaker — the documentation a records request or federal review asks for.

Verified to spec

Every audio file is loudness-normalized and measured against broadcast spec before it leaves. "Broadcast-ready" is checked on every file — not assumed.

Proven in use

HBA already produces certified election and public materials for a §203-covered Arizona city — delivered to spec, accepted, and in use.

W-9 on request · invoice-based billing · deliverable archive retained for audit support.
