In the upper-right corner of the target language section, you can select your preferred style. This lets you easily switch between **Faithful, Fluid, and Creative** styles, ensuring that Lara provides the best translation tailored to your specific content needs. ![How to Translate Text Using Lara](https://support.laratranslate.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/Schermata%202024-10-18%20alle%2015-48-57-png-3.png?width=346&height=427&name=Schermata%202024-10-18%20alle%2015-48-57-png-3.png) Here’s a breakdown of each option to help you decide which is best for your needs: **Faithful** This style focuses on accuracy and precision. It maintains the original structure and meaning of the text. Ideal for translating manuals, legal documents, and other content where exactness is essential, the Faithful style delivers a precise translation without altering the core of the original text. **Fluid** The Fluid style emphasizes readability and natural flow for general content. Lara ensures the translation feels smooth and effortless, perfect for everyday communication or content that requires a conversational tone. The translation remains faithful but is adapted to be more accessible and reader-friendly. **Creative** The Creative style is designed for imaginative and engaging translations. It works best for literature, marketing, or creative content that requires a lively, expressive tone. Lara takes a more flexible approach, focusing on the message's impact and emotion rather than strictly adhering to the original wording. Choosing the right style ensures your translation matches the context and purpose of your content. ### How to Select a Translation Style: At the top-right corner of the Lara interface, you’ll see a dropdown menu for translation styles. Select your preferred style based on the type of content you’re translating: - **Faithful** for accuracy - **Fluid** for readability - **Creative** for artistic expression You can switch between these styles at any time, and Lara will instantly adjust the translation to match your choice. This feature is available both for text and document translation.  ***Please note:** when you switch to a different translation style, the character count is recalculated from scratch.* ---   **This article is about:** - Translation styles - Faithful style - Fluent style - Creative style - Choose the best translation style for your content - [About Lara](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/about-lara?hsLang=en) - [How to use Lara](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/how-to-use-lara?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Translate text](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/how-to-use-lara?hsLang=en#translate-text) - [Translate documents](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/how-to-use-lara?hsLang=en#translate-documents) - [Translate voice](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/how-to-use-lara?hsLang=en#translate-voice) - [Translate images](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/how-to-use-lara?hsLang=en#translate-images) - [Translate audio](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/how-to-use-lara?hsLang=en#translate-audio) - [Account and Subscriptions](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/account-and-subscriptions?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Manage your account](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/account-and-subscriptions?hsLang=en#manage-your-account) - [Payments and Invoices](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/account-and-subscriptions?hsLang=en#payments-and-invoices) - [Manage your subscription](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/account-and-subscriptions?hsLang=en#manage-your-subscription) - [Manage Team](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/account-and-subscriptions?hsLang=en#manage-team) - [Pricing](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/account-and-subscriptions?hsLang=en#pricing) - [API and Integrations](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/api-and-integrations?hsLang=en#main-content) - [API](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/api-and-integrations?hsLang=en#api) - [CAT tools](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/api-and-integrations?hsLang=en#cat-tools) - [MCP Server](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/api-and-integrations?hsLang=en#mcp-server) - [Integrations](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/api-and-integrations?hsLang=en#integrations) - [Data Security and Privacy](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/data-security-and-privacy?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Data security](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/data-security-and-privacy?hsLang=en#data-security) - [Privacy](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/data-security-and-privacy?hsLang=en#privacy) - [Frequently Asked Questions](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Glossary](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=en#glossary) - [Useful Tips](https://support.laratranslate.com/en/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=en#useful-tips) [![Lara translate logo](https://support.laratranslate.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Lara_logo_4333ad.png?width=140&height=59&name=Lara_logo_4333ad.png "Lara translate logo")](https://laratranslate.com) © Translated · VAT IT07173521001 Copyright © 2025
