Nestled at the picturesque western edge of Kanagawa Prefecture in Japan, lies Yugawara, our charming hometown. This tranquil small town marks the gateway to the breathtaking Izu Peninsula, gazing out majestically over the expansive Pacific Ocean.
We understand the precise expectations placed upon us. With unwavering dedication, we go above and beyond to ensure that every project receives the meticulous attention it deserves far beyond meeting deadlines; we strive to deliver a truly high added-value service:
Often a distinction is made between editorial and non-editorial translation, with the implication that the former deserves a higher focus on quality.
But work done within the much wider world of commercial and technical translation should also meet sufficient quality standards so that it can be a potent communication means. We specialize in Japanese and Italian translation.
Globalization has heightened the need for multimedia translation, not only for content related to public entertainment but also promotional and educational material for companies.
As part of our general translation service we also provide Japanese and Italian audio and video transcription as well as existing subtitle translation for movies, documentaries, debates, teaching and training material and the like.
Technical and specialized translations form a very broad field that encompasses diverse and highly specialized subjects. Tackling these translations requires a deep understanding of (or at least the ability to quickly assimilate) their subject matter in addition to a working knowledge of related terminology and writing conventions.
It is therefore puzzling that they are quite often considered to be the least valuable type of translation, leading to them being neglected in terms of substance or form.
Here we have quite the overused expression! But what does translation quality mean, exactly? Is it an absolute concept and therefore universally understood? How should it be evaluated?
In particular, how do we produce high-quality translations in our Italian → Japanese and Japanese → Italian language pairs, the most difficult ones? In these cases, cooperation between two native speakers is paramount.
Make no mistakes, the world of translation could not exist without freelance translators, at least from the perspective of a modern, global phenomenon.
We, too, belong to this category of translators. Since the precise meaning of the term can be obscure to those unfamiliar with the industry, we have summarized its main points in the hopes that this indispensable professional role may be better understood and appreciated.
Translation companies are some of our best clients. But without freelance translators—particularly those specialized in exotic languages such as Japanese and who don't normally work in-house—they could not survive.
In truth, translation companies and freelance translators are both essential and stand on equal footing as professional entities. This means that they must cooperate harmoniously in order to achieve the all-important goal of satisfying the end user. For this reason, they must first get to know each other well.
