Translation Resources
What's involved in preparing a book or script for a new language market.
Translation is more than words
Idiom, humor and cultural reference need adaptation, not just conversion — a literal translation often reads as stilted or confusing.
Formatting travels too
Right-to-left languages, character-based scripts and differing punctuation conventions all affect layout, not just text.
Audio and screen need their own pass
A translated book doesn't automatically give you a usable dubbing or subtitling script — timing and performance constraints require separate adaptation.
