Major risks that we prevent by not using AI tools for Japanese translation
Although generative AI tools are useful and highly efficient, their use always comes with risks, ranging from security concerns to hallucinations. The latter is not limited to the translation industry, but to other regulated industries such as banking and healthcare.
In addition to these, there are other unique risks associated with Japanese translation such as below. In either case, communication becomes less effective, posing increased risk of failure. We make sure to avoid this happening by all means.
Being overly literal and giving off bad vibes
As is often said, AI translations tend to become overly literal. When translation is literal, it sounds awkward and unnatural in general, but it may sound rude and offensive in Japanese.
For example, being direct and to the point may backfire and cause conversations to fail or derail. Similarly, the use of “you” may create distance and trigger unexpected reactions, including anger.
Becoming inappropriately friendly and chatty
Because AI tools try to simulate empathy and serve humans, AI translations often become too chatty and unnaturally friendly. Furthermore, they add flattering words and apologies that are absent from the source text.
If this happens, it’s not something to laugh about, but it becomes a serious matter. It creates significant risks, ranging from mild embarrassment to severe professional damage, including losing credibility.
Major benefits we offer by ditching AI tools from Japanese translation
The art of translation involves more than just converting one language into another automatically like a machine. It involves other responsibilities that require dedication and detail-oriented skills. Our native Japanese linguist can add something more that AI tools and average translation agencies hardly can.
Culturally Sensitive Translation
Language shapes the way we think, feel, and behave, and it is deeply ingrained in culture. For this reason, if you translate automatically and ignore cultural nuances and flavors, it’s like asking for trouble. This applies to translations of any language throughout the globe, including English to Japanese translation.
In short, our bilingual translators can safeguard you from the cultural minefield and guide you towards effective communication.
Fully Optimized Font Settings
Fonts communicate meaning, express emotions and give the right impression. In some cases, the font selection can be more important than the translation itself. This is especially true for the Japanese translation of business cards, websites, and marketing materials.
Given these points, you should look for a native Japanese linguist like us. We will do our best to help you deliver the desired effects.
Mojibake-free Japanese Translation
While garbled text can occur in any language, it can pose a significant risk in Japanese. Some Japanese people feel offended when they come across garbled characters in the Japanese translation. Garbled characters never look elegant and should be avoided at any cost.
Nevertheless, even reputable translation agencies in many countries fail miserably. That’s why you need a specialist in Japan.
Flawless Alphabetical Index
When the index is sorted correctly, it creates harmony, but it’s difficult to achieve in Japanese. The Japanese language uses 92 basic characters, thousands of Kanji, and the Latin alphabet. While there are numerous sort functions, they frequently fail and usually require manual intervention.
Once again, Japanese native linguists like us can only help you create a flawless index.
