Prism Linguistics provides certified English translation of the French civil records that Djerma (Zarma) speakers from Niger hold, and Djerma interpreters for USCIS asylum interviews, court hearings and medical appointments in Enterprise and across the United States.
Djerma to English Translation Services in Enterprise
Certified Djerma to English translation at Prism means, in practice, certified French to English translation of Nigerien records read by a translator who also knows Djerma names and places: the acte de naissance, the marriage certificate and the supplementary birth judgment, each delivered with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy.
Djerma speakers carry French documents, and often a court judgment in place of a birth certificate. Djerma, spelled Zarma in Niger today, is the country's second language after Hausa, but the civil registry writes in French. Niger's 2025 Refoundation Charter made Hausa the national language, kept French as a working language and lists Zarma only as a spoken language, so the records a Djerma family brings to USCIS are French: the acte de naissance, the marriage certificate and, often, a jugement supplétif d'acte de naissance, the judgment a tribunal issues when a birth was never registered. For many Djerma speakers it is the only birth record they will ever have.
A translator who labels it a birth certificate has misdescribed the document. Our Djerma translators render it as the supplementary judgment it is, keep the court and the witnesses named in it, and spell Djerma names to match the passport.
Every certified Djerma translation is a complete, word-for-word rendering with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy, prepared to meet USCIS requirements. It is done from a clear scan, so a client in Enterprise gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in the country.

Prism Linguistics provides qualified Djerma translators in Enterprise and professional Djerma interpreters for the asylum offices, courts, hospitals and attorneys that serve Nigerien families in Enterprise.

Enterprise is not a city. It is an unincorporated town in the Las Vegas Valley, established in 1996 and counted at 221,831 residents in the 2020 census, and it has no city hall, police department or municipal court of its own. Cases arising there go to Clark County's courts: the Eighth Judicial District Court for felonies, larger civil claims, family and probate matters, and the Las Vegas Township Justice Court for misdemeanors, small claims, summary evictions and protective orders.
Clark County School District posts the Nevada English learner rights notice for families in about twenty languages, among them Spanish, Tagalog, Amharic, Tigrinya, Swahili, Kinyarwanda, Dari, Korean, Vietnamese and Chinese. The Las Vegas Paiute Tribe, whose colony adjoins the northwest edge of the valley, carries the Southern Paiute language. Prism assigns a linguist based near the valley for in-person work; our only office is in New York, and courts come to us for rare languages others cannot supply.
Djerma Interpreters in Enterprise
Our Djerma interpreters in Enterprise are professional, experienced linguists who work in asylum offices, immigration courts, state courts and hospitals, and who handle a Djerma interpreting assignment as the rare-language booking it is, rendering a detailed account exactly rather than through a Hausa or French intermediary.
Djerma is a spoken language in practice. Djerma has a Latin orthography, but most Djerma speakers we interpret for were never schooled in it, so a written Djerma form is no use. Djerma belongs to the Southern Songhay group with Kaado and Dendi, and a Djerma interpreter can normally work with those varieties, but we ask which one the person speaks. No state runs a court certification exam in Djerma, so courts use a qualified Djerma interpreter, usually by phone or video; Djerma is the kind of rare language that courts come to us for. Hospitals that take federal funds must provide an interpreter at no cost. At a USCIS asylum interview the Djerma interpreter renders each answer as given.
For an in-person assignment in Enterprise we assign a Djerma interpreter based in or near the city. Telephone and video interpreting can usually be arranged the same day. We serve courts, attorneys, hospitals, USCIS applicants and private individuals; we are a private agency, not a court-appointed vendor, and we say so up front.

About the Djerma Language
Djerma (Zarma, Zerma) is a Songhai language spoken by around 4 million people, primarily in southwestern Niger where it serves as a major regional language, plus border communities in Mali, Burkina Faso, and Nigeria. The US Djerma-speaking community is very small, concentrated in areas that received Nigerien refugee resettlement. Our Djerma translation work is rare and typically USCIS asylum-related. Djerma is written in the Latin alphabet.

Djerma Translation in Enterprise: FAQs
My birth record from Niger is a jugement suppletif. Can you translate it for USCIS?
Yes. A jugement suppletif d'acte de naissance is a court judgment issued in place of a birth certificate when a birth in Niger was never registered, and it is what many Djerma speakers hold. We translate it in full as the supplementary judgment it is, under a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy.
Will a Hausa or French interpreter do for a Djerma speaker?
Not for an asylum interview or a medical history; a detailed account is given more exactly in Djerma. No state certifies court interpreters in Djerma, so courts use a qualified Djerma interpreter, usually by phone or video. We are a private agency, not a court-appointed vendor.
Do you have an office in Enterprise?
No. Our only office is in New York. Djerma translation is done remotely from a scan, so location makes no difference to the document work. For in-person interpreting in Enterprise we assign a Djerma interpreter who is based in or near the city, and phone or video interpreting is available anywhere in the United States.
