01 / The starting point

A clear request.
A useful direction.

A person submits written instructions and selects a target language

“Translate the submitted instructions into the requested language while retaining the original text for comparison and review.”
An example request · Make it specific to your team.

02 / The work

5 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Helps make written instructions more accessible to people who prefer another language.

  1. Receive the original instructions

    Gather the exact text to translate and preserve its original wording for a later comparison.

  2. Confirm the target language

    Use the language requested by the person rather than inferring it from their name, location, or prior messages.

  3. Prepare a translated draft

    Translate the supplied material while keeping its structure and important details easy to compare with the original.

  4. Check names, numbers, and key terms

    Review details that can easily change meaning, including dates, measurements, warnings, and specialized vocabulary.

  5. Approve before important use

    Ask a fluent or qualified person to confirm the translation before it is shared as authoritative or used to guide a consequential action.

03 / The result

Something useful.
Something to build on.

A translated draft that can help a reader understand the instructions, with a human check before important use.

The handoff

A translated draft that can help a reader understand the instructions, with a human check before important use.

Keep in mind

A translation may alter meaning, tone, or specialized terms. Have a fluent, qualified person review safety-critical, legal, medical, financial, or otherwise consequential instructions before they are shared or followed.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Choose supported language pairs

Confirm which source and target languages are appropriate for the people who will use the translation.

Set translation privacy expectations

Decide what information may be submitted and restrict access to translations that contain personal or confidential material.

Define when review is required

Identify content that must be checked by a fluent or qualified person, especially safety or other high-impact instructions.

Test realistic instruction examples

Compare drafts with their originals and verify that warnings, numbers, names, and formatting remain understandable.
